[Jprogramming] JHS navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia fails

[David Mitchell]

This looked interesting to me:

Using the new API in older browsers

Here's an example of using navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia(), with a 
polyfill to cope with older browsers. Note that this polyfill does not correct 
for legacy differences in constraints syntax, which means constraints won't work 
well across browsers. It is recommended to use the adapter.js polyfill instead, 
which does handle constraints.
