WebRTC Screen Sharing - Few windows go blank intermittently - webrtc

I implemented the ShareScreen of Web RTC.
But when "Choose Share Screen" popup opens,few of the windows keep flickering and show blank content (black screen) most of the time. On selecting one of those windows and doing screen share, the peer also gets the same flickering.
Please help. I have attached the image link which shows the problem https://webrtc.googlecode.com/issues/attachment?aid=43840000000&name=Screenshot.png&token=ABZ6GAdcyh_dpvmXdbR02t3LX72wbfE4Qg%3A1425623918522&inline=1

Please check your signalling server. This error occurs only when something wrong in your signalling server. Similar kind of error occured to me. I used nodeJS. Sometimes handshakes may be established, but data have to be transferred for sharing.
For instance check whether the request and response is prompt.

This is a known issue in Chrome on Windows:

Try to migrate to FF or to Linux...

Bixby Developer Studio keeps asking me to login

When I first launched Bixby Developer Studio, it greeted me with a startup screen with a Login button. I clicked on it and it opened a login page in my browser. I logged in that page using my Samsung developer account. The login was successful and a pop-up appeared asking me if I will allow the page to launch Developer Studio (which was already open at that point). I allowed it, but nothing happened; Developer Studio was still showing the startup screen.
I restarted the application but it again showed me that startup screen with the login button. If I click on the login button, it will just take me again to the login page in the browser. And then nothing would happen if I login again.
I'd suggest verifying if your browser is configured to accept cookies. If that information is verified and the problem still exists, there might be additional information in the ide.log file that can provide more insight
To get that information, follow these steps:
Note the time when you begin the next steps.
Go through the login process until you hit the point of failure.
From the IDE menu, click on Help -> Create Diagnostics Report. This
will popup a dialog that will point you to the location of the
diagnostics report, by default this location is
C:\Users\'User'\bixby-workspace\
Unzip the diagnostics report and look at the ide.log file for any
errors at the time of login.
Feel free to post the errors here or if you prefer, you can open a ticket with Bixby Support too.
There are a couple of points you could work on here -
In this case, I suggest you to keep the browser open in the background while clicking on the login button. I was facing the same issue and somehow it worked for me like this. This has been an issue on a Windows machine. On a Mac this problem is not faced till now.
You could restart the Bixby studio itself for logging in again.
Also, I suggest removing the browser cookies as told by shahnawaz above.
Do let us know if this still persists !
Thank you all for your suggestions. For some reason, it just started working right after I received dozens of Windows updates (it's been a few days since I logged in to my Windows account as I have been using Linux; I rarely use my Windows account now and I wish Bixby Studio was available in Linux too). So, I actually haven't tried any of your suggestions yet. Thanks again, anyways!

Fastlink Connection Reset Error

Been unable to access Fastlink via the 'Developer Info' tab as well as from 'TestDrive' using Google Chrome as my browser. I keep getting a 'Connection was reset' error within the iframe. Its not consistent behavior with some attempts allowing me to add accounts. Tried using another computer and seeing same issues (both on the same wireless network). Are there any known issues on Yodlee's side? Please let me know if you need additional information from me.
It seems like you were facing that issues temporary or intermittent.
In case if you still sees the issue, please do report to this on chat option available at developer.yodlee.com

Screen Sharing on webRTC

Is it possible to capture desktop screen sharing through webRTC.. As we know that it just captures the screen on the browser tab but is it possible to capture the whole desktop screen like navigating through files on computer or opening and viewing files like pdf etc..
Currently, only "stateless" screen capturing is available in RTCWeb implementations (both chrome & firefox). E.g.
Install chrome extension and then try this demo
Above demo will simply capture screen of "any" opened application's screen. Though, such screen capturing API fails to capture screens of full-screen game applications.
More information available here:
https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/desktopCapture (HTTPs+getUserMedia+postMessage)
Regarding remote desktop sharing from a web-browser, it has a pile
more security risks associated with it compared to screen sharing. The
UI/security aspects will be tough to deal with, and the feature will
be very susceptible to social engineering -- phone call: "this is
Google/Dell/Computer-Management; we've detected your machine has a
virus on it; could you browse to and we'll assist you in
removing it" -- etc. Ref
Yes, it's possible. At least using Chrome. There are several ways of doing it, but the simplest one is:
Add this constaint when you invoke getUserMedia:
constraints.video.mandatory.chromeMediaSource = 'screen'
When starting chrome, use this argument (chrome version > 35):
--enable-usermedia-screen-capturing
You can find an example of sharing screen and recording the shared screen at a remote server repository here:
https://github.com/Kurento/kurento-tutorial-js/blob/develop/kurento-recorder-screen/static/index.js
If you try to execute that example, play close attention to the security restrictions. All signalling needs to travel using TLS. Using raw HTTP will produce chrome to refuse sharing screen.
Yes it is. I recently worked on WebRTC and was able to stream desktop easily. Following links helped me implement my requirements :
Firefox Extension : http://mozilla.github.io/webrtc-landing/
Dont forget to add your *.github.io to about:config -> getUserMedia screensharing allowed domains
Google Chrome extension : https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/samples#search
Open this in Run : Chrome.exe --enable-usermedia-screen-capturing

IE10 in Win RT can not connect server on local network

When I browse the web with IE10 in win8's Metro part there is no problem but when I try to view page that is located on server in my local network(the same subnet) it displays this message:
This page can't be displayed
•Make sure the web address http://192.168.1.100 is correct.
•Look for the page with your search engine.
•Refresh the page in a few minutes.
If following these suggestions didn't work, resetting your connection might help.
Reset connection [<-a button here]
Get more help with connection problems
Now the funny part is that there is an option in metro version of ie10 to open page on desktop (in regular IE10) and than it works with no problem.
I can't find or think of any security setting that would restrict browsing websites inside your own local network.
(this is Windows 8 32Bit Release Preview build 8400)
Any ideas?
This is related to EPM (Enhanced Protected Mode) in IE10. It's hard to summarize in an answer here, but Eric Lawrence (a PM on the IE team) has an excellent post detailing everything about EPM:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ieinternals/archive/2012/03/23/understanding-ie10-enhanced-protected-mode-network-security-addons-cookies-metro-desktop.aspx
In particular, read the "Loopback-blocked" and "Private Network resources" sections.
In your case, you might try one of these approaches:
Try aliasing the dotted hostname (http://192.168.1.100) via a custom DNS entry (e.g. http://myservice)
Change the Trusted Zones settings
See if your network connection was established as sharing or non-sharing, which would trigger private vs. public mode.
Again, see Eric's post for the details of each of these.

The system is experiencing problem that requested for support

HI,
We created a web application which is running in many web servers. One of the server was recently updated. When they request the web page which usually streaming PDF content, the alert message displayed and return back to last page visited.
The alert message has the title: Windows Internet Explorer
Alert message is "The System is experiencing problem that requested for support".
We never faced this exception. Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
P.Gopalakrishnan.
grep your source code for the message; it's probably raised by javascript in your app.
What happens when this problem occurs? Does the browser crash?
I've seen this sometimes with IE. I don't know why. It has happened when dowloading Excel spreadsheets, but it has also happened when downloading code from SourceForge.
