Support for screen sharing in CEF

[linuxcef9]

Yeah I see. I have (unfortunately) not contributed to CEF. According to you, how much effort would it be to include that flag in CEF ? How can I figure out what plumbing might be needed to get it working?

hey guys, I made a code patch for CEF to support getDisplayMedia(), which support full screen and window sharing (popup a window picker like Chrome):
https://github.com/epubcn/cef_enhanceme ... splayMedia

I only make Windows 3578,3729,3770,3809 and macOS 3578,3729, use --enable-media-stream to enable getDisplayMedia() please.
btw, the codes is only for personal use, which may be have some bugs, feel free to tell me

I am expect the offical version of supporting screen/window sharing to release soon

Hello, guys! We still have issues with screen sharing, and stuck with further development. Any progress on it?

I find this PR with WIP status https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... quests/323
Do you plan to finish PR in the next 1-2 months?

[linuxcef9]

Marshall is the one who decides. That PR if merged, would be useful for me too!

Hi marshall,

I see that https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/ ... quests/499 has been submitted which added runtime support for media permissions.
However, are there any plans to display window picker when screen sharing permission is requested on multi-monitor setup?

These dialogs should already be supported with the Chrome runtime. There are no plans currently to add support with the Alloy runtime.

But how do I trigger those dialogs to show up? I am using https://www.webrtc-experiment.com/Plugi ... 2278400124 to test.
If I launch cefclient.exe --enable-chrome-runtime and access above URL, I get NotAllowedError since cefclient doesn't give screenshare permission by default.
If I launch cefclient.exe --enable-media-stream --enable-chrome-runtime and access above URL, I can see both my monitors are shared and no dialog pops up.

I am using sample application of cefclient based off 5249 branch from openspotify website.

Try with “cefsimple.exe --enable-chrome-runtime” to get a Chrome themed window. Do the dialogs show there?

That worked, thanks! Not sure why did it not work with cefclient.

[magreenblatt]

It probably depends on some part of the Chrome theme UI that is hidden with cefclient.
