Another usecase we have for it that we have are USB video capture cards that show up as UVC devices but are used as HDMI monitors rather than video content. In Chromium we allow webcam content to downscale (since good VGA is better than bad HD, and we like to preserve fluid motion), but for text content this completely messes up fonts so for screencast we drop frames instead. For these USB video capture cards we have no (simple) way of knowing that it's not actually a webcam, so this hint would allow an application that is aware to configure the device differently. A device blacklist/whitelist seems like a bad choice, apart from being tedious/impossible to maintain, as someone could also have plugged in their video-game console and then screencast settings would be awful again. -- GitHub Notification of comment by pbos Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-main/issues/391#issuecomment-245623636 using your GitHub account
