Re: [Bug 23263] New: Add output device enumeration to GetSources

I discussed this with several developers and WebRTC Expo and they all like it. Some folks from Priologic and others want in addition to the things you have in the array to also add: facing , max resolution, HW codecs available, 

Are the labels always in english?

What is the permission model around what an app can access?
