I have a problem when I want to capture image from getusermedia, the captured image in Firefox is not retaining the ratio I have set in video constraint. this is the ratio for getting the video, but from what I've seen the video not taking the constraints in Firefox
if(navigator.mediaDevices && navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia) {
if(window.innerWidth >= 600){
this.canvasWidth = 480;
this.canvasHeight = 360;
} else {
this.canvasWidth = 240;
this.canvasHeight = 240;
}
navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({ audio: false,video: {facingMode: 'user', width: this.canvasWidth * 2, height: this.canvasHeight * 2} }).then(stream => {
this.useWebcam = true;
this.canvas.nativeElement.style.display = 'none';
this.video.nativeElement.srcObject = stream;
this.stream = stream;
this.ref.detectChanges();
this.video.nativeElement.play();
console.log(stream);
}).catch(reason => {
this.useWebcam = false;
if(this.acceptable){
this.acceptable = false;
this.eMessage = reason + "<br/>Please check your camera to continue.";
this.ref.detectChanges();
}
// alert(reason + " \nPlease check your camera to continue.")
});
} else {
this.eMessage = "Please check your camera to continue.";
}
And this is for taking the picture and retaking the picture
capture() {
this.canvas.nativeElement.style.display = 'block';
this.canvas.nativeElement.getContext("2d").scale(-1,1);
this.canvas.nativeElement.getContext("2d").drawImage(this.video.nativeElement, 0, 0, this.canvas.nativeElement.width * 2, this.canvas.nativeElement.height * 2, 0, 0, -1 * this.canvas.nativeElement.width, this.canvas.nativeElement.height);
this.canvas.nativeElement.getContext("2d").restore();
this.captured = this.canvas.nativeElement.toDataURL("image/png");
this.video.nativeElement.style.display = 'none';
}
retake() {
setTimeout(() => {
this.canvas.nativeElement.getContext("2d").scale(-1,1);
this.canvas.nativeElement.getContext("2d").clearRect(0, 0, -1 * this.canvas.nativeElement.width, this.canvas.nativeElement.height);
this.canvas.nativeElement.getContext("2d").restore();
this.canvas.nativeElement.style.display = 'none';
this.video.nativeElement.style.display = 'block';
this.captured = null;
}, 20);
}
How to make the video using the constraint given? This code worked in Chrome, not in Firefox? Thank you
Note: I already read other questions before asking but still have no answer for my case. Thank you
Finally after experimenting with my codes I can do the preview
positioningVideo(){
//Check Orientation
if(this.videoWidth > this.videoHeight){
let temp = this.videoWidth;
this.videoWidth = this.videoHeight;
this.videoHeight = temp;
}
if(this.videoWidth > (this.canvasWidth * 2)){
this.video.nativeElement.style.maxHeight = '' + this.canvasHeight + 'px' ;
this.video.nativeElement.style.maxWidth = '' + (this.videoWidth / 2) + 'px';
} else if(this.videoHeight > (this.canvasHeight * 2)){
this.video.nativeElement.style.maxWidth = '' + this.canvasWidth + 'px' ;
this.video.nativeElement.style.maxHeight = '' + (this.videoHeight / 2) + 'px';
} else if(this.videoWidth == (this.canvasWidth * 2) && this.videoHeight == (this.canvasHeight * 2)){
this.video.nativeElement.style.maxHeight = '' + this.canvasHeight + 'px' ;
this.video.nativeElement.style.maxWidth = '' + this.canvasWidth + 'px' ;
}
}
and I used some calculation to set my starting coordinate
Note: I am using crop center so I calculate the margin top or left.
capture() {
let coorX = 0, coorY = 0;
if(this.videoWidth != (this.canvasWidth * 2)){
coorX = (this.videoWidth - (this.canvasWidth * 2)) / 2;
}
if(this.videoHeight != (this.canvasHeight * 2)){
coorY = (this.videoHeight - (this.canvasHeight * 2)) / 2;
}
this.canvas.nativeElement.style.display = 'block';
this.canvas.nativeElement.getContext("2d").scale(-1,1);
this.canvas.nativeElement.getContext("2d").drawImage(this.video.nativeElement, coorX, coorY, this.canvasWidth * 2, this.canvasHeight * 2, 0, 0, -1 * this.canvasWidth, this.canvasHeight);
this.canvas.nativeElement.getContext("2d").restore();
this.captured = this.canvas.nativeElement.toDataURL("image/png");
this.video.nativeElement.parentElement.style.display = 'none';
}
