I'm sorry I have a very bad English so be nice with my spelling :)

I'm looking for a video recorder in HTML5 and I found my happiness with getUserMedia of HTML5.

The problem is that getUserMedia require that user activate MediaStream (for webRTC) on Chrome's interface : chrome://flags/

My question is : is it possible to activate this option by asking the user like in javascript ok with an url like chrome::/flags/mediastream=true or a function like setUserMedia?

Thank you

No. The user has to turn it on manually. If you wait a few releases it may get turned on by default.

We can't change chrome flags switches within/through JavaScript ---

There are command line flags (or "switches") that Chromium accepts in order to enable particular features or modify otherwise default functionality.

It is good practice to LINK this page whenever you want to tell end users to enable "Peer Connection" switch - http://www.webrtc.org/running-the-demos (in case you're using PeerConnection APIs!!!)

Chromium 21 stable enables this feature (getUserMedia) by default - http://caniuse.com/stream
