@foolip I guess that most sites that play ```MediaStream```s still use the (deprecated in the spec) ```URL.createObjectURL(mediaStream)``` method to play them in a media element (based on comparing 0.007-0.1% with 0.0003%). However, at the time when we had ```URL.createObjectURL(mediaStream)``` it was a moving target as the File API (which we modeled it after) was moving back and forth regarding e.g. auto revocation (if memory serves). So I am not sure all UAs that implement ```URL.createObjectURL(mediaStream)``` do it in the same way. Additionally, the File API has now moved further and has two different methods for generating an URL for a blob. My vision may be blurred, but to me it still makes most sense to keep URL generation out of the spec (which of course does not forbid UAs to support it) and just spec ```srcObject```. -- GitHub Notification of comment by stefhak Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/mediacapture-main/issues/404#issuecomment-271512565 using your GitHub account
