Dynamic switching of streams

See original GitHub issue

I have my phone, right in front of me, streaming every move I make.

I have two cameras in my phone, one in the front, one in the back. Would it be possible to change which camera can stream without refreshing the page (using mediaDevices.enumerateDevices to get a list of cameras and then provide a way to change the stream)

Is this possible? Thanks!

If you’d like to reuse existing connections, you’d need to wait for ICE restarts to be supported by simple-peer, see #579.

To help peers behind different NATs to connect, you need to add a STUN or a TURN server. See the config.iceServers parameter: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/RTCConfiguration/iceServers
