Are you building a video conferencing, live streaming, or telehealth app? Then the WebRTC MediaStream API is your foundation. Learn how to grab camera/mic, manipulate tracks, and connect to peers — all with production-ready tips and code.
🔍 In our guide you’ll explore:
What a MediaStream is and how it works in a WebRTC flow.
Key interfaces like MediaStreamTrack, and methods such as getUserMedia(), addTrack(), removeTrack().
How to integrate advanced processing (Canvas, Web Audio) for custom effects.
Constraints and quality tuning (video resolution, frame rate, echo cancellation).
Connecting the stream into RTCPeerConnection: publishing and receiving tracks.
Production best-practices: cleaning up streams, error handling, debugging via Chrome DevTools.
Browser compatibility, secure contexts (HTTPS), polyfills.
How Ant Media Server extends and accelerates this: ultra-low latency (200-500 ms), large-scale streaming, protocol conversion (WebRTC ↔ RTMP ↔ HLS).
