This is the most important missing piece, are their bugs for this?
Until we have html/dom textures in vr I just don't see webvr being very successful.
Just like the headset isolates you from the room, the lack of normal web content in vr/mr is very isolating.
- ericflo 9y agoI think they will never do this for DRM and security reasons :(
- pcwalton 9y agoDRM doesn't factor into this. canvas.drawWindow() has been a thing (for addons) since 2005: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CanvasRenderingContext2D/drawWindow https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CanvasRende...
- ericflo 9y agoThat's pretty cool - so you can just render DRMed video to a texture and record that texture to get around the new DRM stuff?
- Sylos 9y agoYou can also set up a camera in front of your monitor and just record the whole thing. DRM has never been functional. Best it can do, is deflect the average user from just quickly sending it to his friend. But anyone with any motivation can easily get around it.
- ericflo 9y agoI'm honestly really glad to hear this
