Specific Error Message If Camera or Mic is being Used by Other Application

[rahul7827]

Short description

• I was having microphone issue during the community hour so I am posting the issue here.

Scenario

I am teacher and at the same time I have to take online class on two websites. I have two camera device plugged into my system (both device are mic inbuilt).

Step 1. I opened the first website and started streaming for my class. [System automatically chooses the default device (camera/microphone)]. Lets say "camera 1" and "Microphone 1" automatically selected during starting my stream.

Step2. I opened second website and that site also trying to choose the same device (camera 1, microphone 1). In this case an error occurs as defined in javascript SDK.

Error : Camera or Mic is being used by some other process that does not not allow these devices to be read.

At this time I am confused that should I change the camera/microphone (In my application feature is to change camera/microphone). since the error is not specific.

Environment

• Ant Media Server version 2.4.3

Expected behavior

Solution 1: Either system should automatically select the camera/microphone (if available) which is not in use.
Solution 2: Can generate message like (Camera 1 OR Microphone 1) is already in use.
