Yesterday I was reading a very interesting news in the Chromium blog about implementing video chat using the latest versions of Firefox y Chrome, all this without any plugin.
Magic comes from the hand of WebRTC, a new set of technologies that is part of HTML5 that offers voice services in a clear and sharp way together with high definition (HD) video, establishing a low-delay communication in the web browser. That simple
As you can read on the blog of Chromium:
Thanks to the work and participation of the W3C and IETF communities in the development of the platform, Chrome and Firefox can now communicate through the use of standard technologies, using opus y VP8 codecs for audio and video respectively, DTLS-SRTP for encryption and ICE for connection.
We can already test this new functionality on the demo site of WebRTC. In the case of Firefox, we need to open the about:config
and establish media.peerconnection.enabled
en "true".
I leave the demonstration video:
I particularly think that all this will have a great impact, and I do not know to what extent it can compete with Skype. It will certainly be something interesting to see.
As for mobile telephony, this will be another very easy alternative to establish communication through Audio / Video, since it would only be necessary to install a browser that supports this technology and the Internet. How do you see it?
I still need to add, "And a very good smartphone" (translation: loosen up the dough kid ...) TT
This makes me think that it will be possible to make video calls between Firefox OS and Android natively.
do not forget Chromium OS, a madman mounts a Chatroulette-type madness and to chat from the browser, than skype or anything xD
Something like that would be great for those of us who use ChromiumOS 🙂
I found out just yesterday through the Mozilla Hispano page, and I have shared it in the G + community, it is simply something that shows the progress in the implementation of features in the browser as a means of communication, and why not, if it becomes in a standard avoid the use of so many plugins for this type of task.
So the Firefox developer and SL defender uses Mac !? Hahahahahahahahahahaha.
Firefox sucks, hail the new King Chromium>: D
Firefox is an excellent browser, chromium too, to say that one "sucks" just for taste is silly
okkk. I use both, they seem the best to me. Opera is also good but I got used to these two.
Sure, but many more things would be needed, not only that possibility, but also that of being able to control contacts, etc., that if, the thing promises a lot.
Would bandwidth consumption improve something?
How to use it ???????????????
