Class StreamManagerAbstract

Interface in charge of displaying the media streams in the HTML DOM. This wraps any Publisher and Subscriber object. You can insert as many video players fo the same Stream as you want by calling addVideoElement or createVideoElement. The use of StreamManager wrapper is particularly useful when you don't need to differentiate between Publisher or Subscriber streams or just want to directly manage your own video elements (even more than one video element per Stream). This scenario is pretty common in declarative, MVC frontend frameworks such as Angular, React or Vue.js

See available event listeners at StreamManagerEventMap.

Methods

  • Makes video element parameter display this stream. This is useful when you are managing the video elements on your own

    Calling this method with a video already added to other Publisher/Subscriber will cause the video element to be disassociated from that previous Publisher/Subscriber and to be associated to this one.

    Returns

    1 if the video wasn't associated to any other Publisher/Subscriber and has been successfully added to this one. 0 if the video was already added to this Publisher/Subscriber. -1 if the video was previously associated to any other Publisher/Subscriber and has been successfully disassociated from that one and properly added to this one.

    Parameters

    • video: HTMLVideoElement

    Returns number

  • Creates a new video element displaying this stream. This allows you to have multiple video elements displaying the same media stream.
