Skype Video Calls deactivated #9

Open kossmoboleat opened 6 years ago

kossmoboleat commented 6 years ago

I cannot make video calls in Franz's Skype for Web, but I can make them from Chrome without installing a Skype plugin. Related to this issue

If I can help by testing user agent strings or using a different electron version, I can probably figure out how to do that.

In Franz App version: 1.107.13 Plugin version: Not available

In Chrome (there's no line for the plugin version) App version: 1.107.13

OS: macOs 10.13.2 Chrome version: 63.0.3239.84

Maybe on would have to wait for Electron to upgrade to Chromium 63 (they seem to be on 60): https://github.com/electron/electron/pull/11459

@kossmoboleat how is it related to Chromium 63 ?

kossmoboleat commented 6 years ago

Maybe that wasn't the reason, but I imagined that electron's internal chromium version was the defining difference. That may not be the case. Since then I've stopped using this service altogether.

this should solve it https://github.com/meetfranz/recipe-skype/pull/12

Call seems to work with Skype but the camera button appear disabled yet. Any idea how to make it work? Skype web on my Google Chrome works perfect.

I use Chrome on Linux. I can use calls when I open Skype online in my browser but not in Franz. I played around with the useragent but calls still did not work.
