- geeeeee 6y agoCan I use this to notify people in a building that food is being served out in front of the building?(shelter)
- truetaurus 6y agoIt is not the exact use case I was thinking about but I suppose it could. All I would say is try it out :)
- truetaurus 7y agoAny feedback is welcomed :)
- Kim_lian 7y agoOne nice feature would be a message when a user is talking/recording their message. Like xyz is talking...
- truetaurus 7y agoGreat idea. It is in my backlog!
- butz 7y agoLooks like it does not work on Firefox, console shows "uncaught exception: Object" error. And progress bar goes way out of button.
- truetaurus 7y agoah thanks for that, haven't tested it in FireFox, will look into that now. Chrome works though.
- truetaurus 7y agoWhich FireFox version? worked for me
- butz 7y agoFirefox 75.0 (64-bit) on Windows 7 with Tracking Protection and uBlock on. Doesn't work with both turned off either.
- butz 7y agoError occurs when microphone is not plugged in and when I deny microphone permission in browser. Probably a very rare case, but my microphone connection is a bit wonky and sometimes I have to re-plug it to work. It would be awesome if your app showed that I might have a problem on my end.
- truetaurus 7y agoI see cool, ill look into some better error handling!
- butz 7y agoHow about adding keyboard controls? E.g. hold one of keyboard keys to talk, instead mouse button?
- truetaurus 7y agoalso in the backlog! thanks!
- truetaurus 7y agoAdded press space bar to talk!
- butz 7y agoAdapt UI for mobile phones with huge easy accessible "talk" button, make title ant instructions smaller, to fit in tiny mobile screens.
- truetaurus 7y agogood point! haven't optimized really yet for mobile
- truetaurus 7y agoJust made it a little more mobile friendly!
- raphamenezes 7y agoBravo!
- BrandonSmith 7y agoThis does look interesting. When I tested, I noted a lot of latency. It seems the audio is not sent over WS until the capture is complete. Even after finishing a recording, the other side did not receive and hear it for up to 20 seconds.
- truetaurus 7y agohmm i guess ill have to do some reading. I am using sockets.io and from what I read is it does exactly what you said. First http and then sockets (but i could be wrong). This is anyway been a sideproject of mine to learn about web sockets.
- adrianpike 7y ago> It seems the audio is not sent over WS until the capture is complete. The info block indicates this is by design - 20s seems like a lot of latency, but possibly if it's got to pull down the entire audio blob before it can start playing?
- truetaurus 7y agoHmm maybe you could explain that further? not sure what you mean? Or do you have any recommendations what this could mean for me to do?
- mieses 7y agostarts clear then it starts to stutter. possibly this happens if one person starts to record while listening to a message.
- truetaurus 7y agoI am not sure it is that, but I def trying to figure out what is causing it but so far no luck
- modernyogihippy 7y agoAnother idea. Show who is talking currently. If there are more than 2 people in a convo it would be nice to have a visual of everyone there and who is talking when. Also this would be an interesting feature for people who do podcasts and want to involve their listeners, however, there should be a way to limit or a way for the owner of the channel to grant privileges to when people can talk so not everyone jumps in at once.
- truetaurus 7y agogreat ideas. Already have something in the works along these lines!
- truetaurus 7y agoAdded who is currently talking! and able to see who is in the room!
