Details

(Whiteboard: breakdown [investigation])

scenario: after someone calls, use wants to plug in a headset rather than speakers. Needs UI. More complex scenario than checking for new devices when door hanger is up scenario: bug 827146.
The WebRTC and gUM specifications do not currently support this use case.
(In reply to Eric Rescorla (:ekr) from comment #1) > The WebRTC and gUM specifications do not currently support this > use case. Right. And as discussed at the WG Interim (and elsewhere), we need something like this less cumbersome and more functional than using a <video> element as a track-switch (and even that requires non-spec functions - mozCaptureStream). So the general idea would be to propose a design and create a moz* implementation of it.
I think we need this for switching cameras.

Randell -- I think this needs some bug breakdown. Can you get the bugs into bugzilla for switching cameras without renegotiation based on our last meeting?
