What's the use case here? Note that in order to build even a half-decent camera app just for taking selfies you need some amount of control over of focus. For more advanced camera apps you also want control over backlight compensation, flash etc. This is an area where gUM and WebRTC so far has been very lacking which means that it's not yet mature enough for those use cases. This seems fine since we can't do everything at once. However we should be intentional in what types of use cases we're trying to address when we add features. / Jonas _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
