Well, we’d better agree on this soon or we’ll be chasing our tails forever. People have radically different understandings of what a Track actually does. I think that’s one reason that the discussions of cloning and constraints/settings never seems to progress. - Jim From: Martin Thomson [mailto:martin.thomson@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, May 09, 2013 4:09 PM To: Jim Barnett Cc: public-media-capture@w3.org; Harald Tveit Alvestrand; Stefan Håkansson LK; Robert O'Callahan Subject: RE: Cloning and sharing of MediaStreamTracks - worth it?

I don't think that Track is doing much work. That isn't the model that I described. A large part of the state of the source is actually transparent. The set of constraints, enabled, and, consequently, the precise form of the track output are track properties. As far as I can tell, the only concrete properties the source has are invariant: mute, the media itself. The rest are derived from the set of constraints provided by the enabled tracks that the source serves. Those are the properties I'm interested in cloning.
