@sboudouk can you try 6.0.11 just curious.

[hthetiot]

@sboudouk I would also need if you can that you test the followinf version to try to understand what changes caused the issue

• df3105c
• ac93724
• c04df62
• cb0aefe

Notice that i suspect c04df62 to have broken compatilibity.

[hthetiot]

I will not release 6.0.13 until this is solved for information :)

[sboudouk]

I will give it a shot then give you feedback there. Thanks for your work.

[hthetiot]

Last 6.0.13 issue.

[matijagrcic]

Thanks for pointing that out, wanted to provide more info as it's related to the Twilio setup and remote video.

If any Twillio user can assist and update the sample to help debug iosRTC with Twillio.

You can make a PR on Sample repository.

Ok then, there are my results:

Local Participant: iPhone 11 iOS 13.4.1
Remote Participant: Samsung Android 8.0.0
Twilio Room type: Group-small, and NOT p2p.

6.11:
Local Video: Local Camera successfully displayed and sent to remote. Displayed successfully on remote device.
Remote Video: No error, but can't receive, attach, or display remote video, not even a black screen.

df3105c:

Same results as 6.11.

c04df62:

Local Video: Local Camera successfully displayed and sent to remote. Displayed successfully on remote device.
Remote Video: No error, receive remote stream, but provides a blackscreen.

Here is a screenshot of console logs in participant.on('trackSubscribed') event.

First object is an instance of: RemoteTrack , and the second one is an instance of RemoteTrackPublication.

cb0aefe:

Same results as c04df62.

I hope it will be helpful.

Thanks for your work, feel free to ask precisions.

can you try this ones @sboudouk

• b632a98
• 8de622a
• 852024b

Example:

cordova plugin remove cordova-plugin-iosrtc --verbose
cordova platform remove ios --no-save
cordova platform add ios --no-save
cordova plugin add https://github.com/cordova-rtc/cordova-plugin-iosrtc#852024b6fc1d24837af29f8e05a23274eca0f167 --verbose

[sboudouk]

Local Participant: iPhone 11 iOS 13.4.1
Remote Participant: Samsung Android 8.0.0
Twilio Room type: Group-small, and NOT p2p.

b632a98:

LocalParticipant: LocalVideoTrack is displayeds successfully. Remote video track is black.
Remote Participant: RemoteParticipant track is received with success. (Audio + Video).

8de622a:

Exact same results as b632a98.

852024b:

Also exact same results as b632a98.

Interesting fact, switching to Cordova 6.1 makes also aee2b39 act like the others (remoteParticipant is a blackscreen on iPhone.) , while on Cordova 5.1.1, on first connection, everything works fine, but once remoteParticipant unpublish his video, and publish it again, it becomes black.

Hi,

This doesn't seem to be affecting only twilio, observing same behaviour (remote video only black) with Janus. I am able to receive remote audio.

It works fully with plugin version 6.0.7.

Here is my config that causes the issue:
Cordova: 9
Plugin version - 6.0.12 and master (852024b)
iOS version (e.g 13.4.1)
Xcode version - 11.5 (11E608c)
WebRTC-adapter version 7.6.4
Janus version: v0.10.3
cordova iOS 6.1.0

Thank you, we need to find what changes introduce the issue. It almost look like a he issue is in 6.0.12 but not 6.0.11.

[hthetiot]

I will investigate Monday. We need to fix that to release 6.0.13

[hthetiot]

Can you try 6.0.13-RC2 @sboudouk @akilude see changes 402baf4

[hthetiot]

cordova plugin remove cordova-plugin-iosrtc --verbose
cordova platform remove ios --no-save
cordova platform add ios --no-save
cordova plugin add https://github.com/cordova-rtc/cordova-plugin-iosrtc#6.0.13-RC2 --verbose

[hthetiot]

Notice that debuging with @sboudouk we found that the issue was on swyft and here was the dirty fix 6e30d45 compare to clean 402baf4

[hthetiot]
