I'm trying to use the navigator.getUserMedia() and as expected on my webpage (or for example https://apprtc.appspot.com/) I'm asked to allow or deny access to my webcam/microphone.

But after I click "allow" nothing happens and on my log I can see:

NavigatorUserMediaError {code: 1, PERMISSION_DENIED: 1}

I'm on Ubuntu 12.04 and tried on Chromium 24.0.1312.56, Chrome 24 and beta 25 and Firefox 18.0.2. Same problem everywhere.

I can access my webcam on webpages using Flash like here http://www.xarg.org/project/jquery-webcam-plugin/

Any idea what is the problem?

  • Can you show us the code? Or is it your setup that does not work with pages that have no problems on other computers? – Bergi Feb 19 '13 at 13:03
  • I guess the problem is coming from the fact that I'm under Ubuntu. But I was wondering if there is something to do with for example chrome flags. – calude Feb 19 '13 at 13:28

I changed the webcam and it's working. So apparently Microsoft Lifecam VX-7000 doesn't work on Ubuntu 12.04 with navigator.getUserMedia because this cam works on Windows 7 (at least with Chrome).
