Apart from the fact that until February this year it was impossible to keep PepperFlash disabled [1], we've so far had:
- Frequent crashes when acquiring video camera [2]
- Recorded sound being choppy and broken (still not fixed for Red5) [3]
- Audio delays and broken echo cancellation in Speex [4]
- Microphone sound levels not reported, breaking apps like ours which check if a microphone worked properly. (resolved together with [3])
- Sound stopping to record after a few minutes [5]
- Inability to give camera access on retina displays [6]
- Rushed fix for a click-jacking attack introduces horrible UX that gets into an unrecoverable state by default [7]
All in all I can personally confirm that Chrome has not been good for people doing video recording on the web.

- brokenparser 13y agoBoy, am I glad these bugs were fixed around the time I wrote my publishers. Remind me to check all the relevant bug trackers before going full steam ahead with a rewrite, ha ha.
