Supported Windows OS for WebRTC

[Francois Nel]

What is the minimum versions of Windows and Google Chrome (or firefox) that will display WebRTC using h264 and VP8 and encodings? I.e. do you have a list (or matrix) of supported platforms for WebRTC video feeds?
e.g. chould we expect to have a WebRTC feed to display in Windows Server 2012 R2 (or Win7) within Google Chrome, using h264 encoding?

Latest Chrome and Firefox supports H.264 video codec.
However H.264 codec has a lot of profiles, packetization modes, etc. For example, according our tests Chrome does not support H.264 High profile playback out of the box, but some IP cams can produce such H.264 video. In such case you have to transcode H.264 to VP8 or H.264 to H.264 to feed compatible stream to Chrome.

could we expect to have a WebRTC feed to display in Windows Server 2012 R2 (or Win7) within Google Chrome, using h264 encoding?

Yes. H.264 should work well on latest versions of Chrome. And it should work on Windows Chrome.

do you have a list (or matrix) of supported platforms for WebRTC video feeds

Currently our default WebRTC support covers:

• latest available browsers Chrome, Firefox, Opera
• Android SDK (Android 4.1.1 and newer)
• iOS SDK (iOS 10 and newer)

For more platforms we arrange custom support plans.
