Support for Safari

Safari 11 added getUserMedia support. The demo on https://www.webrtc-experiment.com/RecordRTC/ shows:

Final results on this for now. I managed to record frames using canvas but not assembling them on the client as Safari doesn’t support webm, even if that would be possible with webworker then it would be slow on the client at 25 fps. Sending the frames over to the server for assembly is possible but png frames are very large even if you would send them as binaries with web sockets every second or so. I’ve now researched locally recording a WebRTC stream on Safari quite a bit and there seems not to be any practical solutions yet. Please if anybody has any suggestions please let me know.

In the meantime, I’m working on implementing a recording solution using Kurento where the video is recorded on the server side through a live WebRTC stream. I’m still considering if I should use this solution for all browsers or just for Safari.
