--- Comment #2 from Kiran <g.kiranreddy4u@gmail.com> ---
The time out I proposed here, will comprise of both the cases.
1. A default timer will be started after calling getUserMedia().
2. A facility will be provided to the user to set his own timers (with some
conditions for example very low or unacceptable values will be discarded).
