When the call was started without audio nor video (either explicitly or because there was an error when getting the media) the media device changes were not listened to, so further device changes were ignored and "localTrackReplaced" events were not emitted. Moreover, "localTrackReplaced" events were handled by Peer objects to replace or add tracks as needed, but if a call is started without media some Peer objects will be missing (the ownPeer object if the HPB is used, Peer objects for any other participant that is not sending media when the HPB is not used). Therefore now a forced reconnection is triggered when needed to establish the missing sender connections. Signed-off-by: Daniel Calviño Sánchez <[email protected]>
"TypeError" is thrown by "getUserMedia" when requesting media without audio nor video. In that case no error message should be shown, as the devices would have been explicitly disabled by the user. That could also happen when audio was disabled and video was enabled but failed. If the initial "getUserMedia" call done when starting a call failed and video was requested it was retried again without video in all cases. Now it is only retried if audio is also enabled, as otherwise it would end requesting no audio and no video (and no error message would be shown, as a "TypeError" would be thrown).
