I was using Chrome, and saw a few of the large white boxes as well a a few normal videos. I don’t know what others were using.
I’ve got an email in to Joel asking if he remembers what the alert message he got said. As far as I know he was the only person to get such a warning. But it resulted in his video image looking very unusual—as seen by him and by everyone else. It was in black and white, twice the height of other boxes, and pulsed/flickered. I’m sorry that I didn’t think to take a screenshot...
Joel was running Windows 10 (on a Microsoft Surface). The error he got was
Error:
NotReadableError: Could not start video source undefined
Here’s the full email he sent me:
Here’s the error I got, and was able to recreate it today. To recreate:
1. In a Zoom meeting, start the video (so camera is in use)
2. Go to Bucket Brigade
3. Calibrate latency and mic volume
4. Receive the error, and be unable to do anything else on bucket brigade due to the error page being the only available page.
This error was also encountered by successfully calibrating, turning off video on bucket brigade, starting video on zoom, and then attempting to start video again on bucket brigade.
This was avoided by turning off video in Zoom. Once it was off, the bucket brigade page would load and I could turn off the video there; once that was off, I could turn the video back on in zoom and use bucket brigade normally—just so long as I didn’t turn on video there.
I believe that Lane was experiencing the same issue, but Jim seemed to be able to have video in both Zoom and bucket brigade. [I was. Though I started the BB video before Zoom -Jim]
It sounds like on some devices maybe only one program can be using the camera at once? If so, I should figure out where exactly that fails and add some sort of “continue without camera” logic.
