Is it possible to disable video and leave only audio? #295

I'm using the webcam to record users talking a survey. A new use case has arisen where certain people may wish to only be recorded in audio. I know this seems an odd question to ask for a webcam component, but is there any way to only ask for audio when trying to get user media? is there perhaps a recommended Mic-only component that I can switch to which uses similar controls to the webcam? something I can switch to in react based on user input?

@Nitzahon for such a use case I would suggest rolling your own custom code. react-webcam really is pretty simple once you strip away the backwards compatibility code.
