In its current implementation, the VideoStatusLabel shows HD based on peer
connection stats. These stats will be available on temasys browsers soon but
will remain unavailable on Firefox, which does not collect height/width stats.
To support VideoStatusLabel showing cross-browser, move the high-definition
detection out of stat sniffing and instead check the video element itself using
an interval in LargeVideoManager. (An interval was used because the temasys
video object does not support the onresize event.) Also, add a cleanup path from
conference.web to LargeVideoManager to remove the interval.
Move the HD label into the newly renamed VideoStatusLabel
component. That way it cannot be possible for the audio only
label and the HD label to display simultaneously.
Audio only mode can be used to save bandwidth. In this mode local video is muted
and last N is set to 0, thus disabling all remote video.
When this mode is enabled avatars are shown.
We seemed to be using the names "film strip" and "filmstrip" (and,
consequently, their source code-conscious forms such as film-strip,
FilmStrip, etc.) In order to comply with our coding style which requires
a consistent one name for a given abstraction, choose one name and
rename the uses of the other name.
Wikipedia has a definition of a "filmstrip", I couldn't find a "film
strip". I guess our abstraction can be seen as what's described there.
When I google "film strip", I get results about "filmstrip" at the top.
That's why I chose "filmstrip".
Certain uses of "film strip" such as interfaceConfig.filmStripOnly and
in the external API I left untouched in an attempt to preserve
compatibility.
I wasn't sure whether CSS was tangled in compatibility so I made a
choice and renamed there was well.
Looks like Android gets confused as to what surface to blit when we hide or
show toolbars. Setting a border on the container, seems to force the entire
area to blit properly.
Other attempted approaches, with no success:
- zIndex of -100
- width and height of 0
- opacity of 0 and setting 'disabled' on touch containers
This patch applies the workaround in the welcome page and conference containers.
Recently, we reimplemented the watermarks in React. Unfortunately, we
didn't take into account film strip-only mode.
Additionally, we duplicated watermark-related source code on the Welcome
and Conference pages.
