HTML5 Only: 100% Web based, No Flash/Plugins, No Downloads, Mobile Ready, Responsive
Solution is 100% Web-basierte, meaning user does not need to download or install an application to use this.
Room is easily accessible by link, in most modern browsers including latest mobile browsers with HTML5 capabilities.
Using the HTML5 videochat interface is highly recommended as main browsers have plans to discontinue Flash support in 2020.
HTML5 Videochat uses WebRTC technology to allow broadcasting webcam directly from website, without need for Flash.
Some other solutions use Flash to broadcast and HTML5 HLS only for playback but this application / interface does not use Flash at all.
This makes it compatible and all functionality available in most browsers including mobile. Some limitations may apply as browser technology rolls out.
Responsive CSS enables support for various screen sizes, portrait and landscape modes.
