after 2 years, still one of the simplest, rare and useful video on flutter webrtc with firestore
Please do make sure this isn't just a one-off video but a series on WebRTC and Flutter. That would really be a treat. continue doing the excellent work. bless!
I hope that the Documentation gets added on that end then maybe this is a great Live Streaming topic :)
@@FlutterExplained not working on web (chrome)......only working on phones
Please create full series on Flutter WebRTC and explain every single point. you are doing excellent work, sir. thanks for the video.
AMAZING I couldn't understand the flutter webRTC plugin my self and you help me understand it, thank you!!!!
Best practical implementation on webrtc with flutter.
Really helpful for me. God bless you.
Awesome video. You havr been recording since and your videos have helped a lot. Thank you
You are most welcome Jo. It is always a joy if someone gets the help he searches :)
I would love a tutorial on Graphql and Flutter in this format, learned a lot! Thank you. :)
Fantastic, thank you for your feedback :)
thanks for explaining, really helpful!
Awesome explanation ☺️ !
I need more of this, webRTC is a great topic
Thankyou for the tutorial
Very helpful video ❤️
Please make tutorial on flutter pion webrtc also
Great video! Cleared lot of concept for me.
So, I implemented it, on Android device. With some ui change I made it work. On the same connection (WiFi), the video stream was rendered for both side. But no Audio.
But when tested on different connections, nothing happened. Even though firebase was being populated with candidates, offer and answer SDP.
Helpfull video 🤟
This video is a gem
I am glad you liked it :)
Fixes: Just set up a firebase project and enable firebase datastore , then go over rules and change "write if false" to "write if true"
then everything is going to work well enough
great video! Very helpful. Small feedback regarding wording. Please try to use exact names for the callee or caller. Like just use participant A and participant B. It becomes very confusing if you use callee is remote for the remote.
Was still very clear to follow, but maybe some will struggle a bit there if they are already new to the whole coding process by itself!
Very good idea, I will try in the future and I work currently on a more specific work on the WebRTC topic :)
If you don't hear audio, make sure to set audio to true in openUserMedia function
Excellent work!
Could you also explain how audio calls work ?
Please make more videos on Flutter WebRTC
Hey, first of all thanks for the tutorial. I created my own App using my own websocket and coturn server. After days I realized (confirmed by your showcase), that the video call only works flawlessly when one FIRST activates the webcames on each side BEFORE creating/joining the room. How would I get around that so the user could open and close the webcam WHENEVER he wants to?
great video ! very helpful.
one question - how to create own stun server?
can you PLEASE make a tutorial to use a phone camera as a webcam using webrtc? your tutorials are awesome!
It's a great effort. Keep going ❤️. This example is a one to one or one to many?
The video is about one - to - one communication.
@@FlutterExplained for one to many just change the _remote renderer into list.
@@ramsmart8939 were you able to implement this?
@@ramsmart8939 can you be more specific ? I'm trying to scale from 5-10 users in a meeting
Can we create many to many peer connection using core webRTC. or we need to use Framework like Jitsi?
There's a small bug in the github where the roomId is never updated when creating a room. A quick fix consist in removing the var at the line 58 of signaling.dart and converting roomId from a String? to a regular String before returning it. It fixes another problem that I was having where the rooms were never deleted even after everyone left them, because the condition check on the roomId not being null was always false (in hangup function, line 208).
Hope that helps anyone with that problem
Great thank you I will directly check it!
Thanks for the video. This was very helpful for understanding. For running this code as a web app, Where should I provide my Firestore details ? In Index.html in the firebaseConfig variable ?
hi , please make a datachannel video with firebase and webrtc for messaging too, expecting from you , thank you for this great content
22:45 the best part 😂
Thank you it was great. is it possible to record or save voice calls on server to have them?
Yes that should be possible, but I believe you would not need WebRTC for that. WebRTC is mostly for communication between two computers, there are way easier possibilities to record a camera :)
hello your tutorial make my day thanks can you please do this flutter webrtc with node js and socket
how to change camera view front or back, or close completely?
Hi Max, thanks for your great explanation. How would you implement calling someone? By push notification linked to the room id? How can you trigger call behavior on a mobile device? Any ideas?
I guess you would need to have a room for a specific user and send him a push notification of the callers room so that he can join. The Notification could trigger the default call on the phone.
But to be frank it sounds like you would need to create some native implementations.
How to implement group video chat? Also I want to show buttons to open/close camera and mic, can you please help me with it?
Super :)
How I can open app when app is in background or how to implement callkeep
i followed your code and tried to run everything on my ios device. it works perfectly fine. one thing i dont understand actually: if i create a room i get my video camera up and showing. if i just press open cam and mic like you did in the showcase i get an error Not found video track for RTCMediaStream. Do you have any idea what happens here?? Since creating a room gets the stream without any issue
hello, good work, can this work on mobile version of flutter ? Or just in web browser
Call does not work on different network. Like one device from broadband and another from mobile data. How to fix it??
Can we also add a feature like whiteboard to this ?
excellent explanation..!❤ but here only one user can join..how can i implement the system to join multiple user..?
It's possible to one to many connection like live video streaming using this code?
Please Do explain it thoroughly, I have used it with flutter, I do have few questions about it.
I tried my best :)
@@FlutterExplained I know you did
Can anyone guide me to create mesh topology ? I want to scale users from 2 to atleast 5 users
very nice demonstration of webRTC, I love it. I face an issue which is when I make the website live and then create room and join from different systems, I cannot get the video connection. But when I tried it on same system it is working. eventually any one will use video calling from independent systems. please anybody could help me in this.
Can you make videos about xmpp combine with WebRTC for building chat app?
Thanks so much Sir.. But I want to ask how you can navigate back from the call screen after one party hangs up just like how every video call app works.
make a new screen after the call ends navigate to that screen
Can I share screen using webrtc, Please make a video bon that
In my case there is a desktop app (not developed using flutter) connected with external camera and the app just displays what the camera records.
In my flutter app, I want to recieve that video from the desktop app and display it in my flutter app.
Is that possible using WebRTC?
Hi! Can we do video recording, chat, etc? or is it better to use services like Agora? I am confused which one to use(agora or web rtc)
I believe Agora uses WebRTC under the hood. So Agora is like a layer above to make the usage easier :)
@@FlutterExplained can you make a tutorial for video recording using web_rtc?
How to play audio stream in background when app not open?
Similarly how to transfer pre-recorded video like this?
Hi @Flutter Explained I want to create app where flutter app can communicate with VR(unity) app using webrtc and Flutter app can discover vr headsets and connect to it and start sending and receiving text messages, please guide

Can I do this on mobile, not the web? And what are the steps?
I don't know how to setup the firebase part, can you help,
Does this work when the app is exported for Android?
18:58 I don't understand the ICE candidates, why are there so many of them there?
Hi Cherrie, the ICE candidates are every possible connections that both clients can have should one fail the Webrtc will immediately try to connect via another ICE that’s why there are some more. I hope that helps 😊 feel free to read the Mozilla mdn documentation to that topic.
Hey, I've been trying to implement the same thing which you did, but somehow I'm not getting any ice candidates for the video. Only the audio is working. Am I missing something?
Same here. When I tested on the ios and android the callee candidate collection were missing video ice candidates. And list of ice candidate in callee collection is always shorter than caller.
is it possible to share screen from one client to another ? like we do in gmeet,zoom
Yes it is, actually it is quite easy you just have to change inside of the openUserMedia the navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia to navigator.mediaDevices.getDisplayMedia.
With that you get asked instead of sharing your webcam to share your monitor from the browser :), I hope that helps.
Question: Will this only work for P2P connections? Or it could work like MS Teams?
Hi Romeo, it could work like teams. P2P is just how the connection is happening between two peers, one of the peer can be a distribution. As I mentioned you have a "room" that multiple people can connect to. My example is just for one person so far.
Can I use webRTC with mobiles (without browser)?
When I call from 2 Android devices to each other, it works fine, but when I call from an iPhone device to an Android device, the error "PlatformException(mediaStream AddTrack: Stream is null, null, null, null)" appears. , can you help me? Thank you very much.

I just don't know why I can't wrap my head around this thing. In my case I need to send the video from one end (client) to the others just like the live feature we've got here.
Hola, did you ever figure this out?
Hey!! can we share *files* with a similar layout.
I want to use Flutter WebRTC with a server so I can record the video call , can you help me ???
I want to make it global calls not locally , and I am having a trouble with that .
any hints plz :(
Which version of Flutter was this written for???? I keep running into a multitude of incompatibility issues after running flutter pub upgrade.
True, it has been a while, if I find time in the next week I will work a bit on the web rtc project.
thank you very much but, kindly I need more details even if paid please.
Is it possible to create an enterprise level app using this?. If it so how can we make it hackerproof? Thanks for sharing your knowledge ❤️.
Yes I guess there are already a lot of companies that use WebRTC. bloggeek.me/massive-applications-using-webrtc/
thanks ..every thing was working good...but suddenly :
ICE Connection state changed: RTCIceConnectionState.RTCIceConnectionStateChecking
connection state changed: RTCPeerConnectionState.RTCPeerConnectionStateConnecting
ICE Connection state changed: RTCIceConnectionState.RTCIceConnectionStateDisconnected
connection state changed: RTCPeerConnectionState.RTCPeerConnectionStateFailed
Bro make a video on end to end encryption 🙃
So, is WebRTC only limited to 1:1 communication or 2 max. How about live streaming from one broadcaster to 100s of viewers. Can it not be solved by WebRTC?
Yes it can be solved. Actually most of the video streaming offerings we use work like that (Google Meetup for example) but our example here is just for two participents. I can imagine that the complexity rises quite harsh from 1:1 vs 100 members but it should be solvable.
How to set video off on and mic on and off in this code
You should have tell about the package name at the beginning.....
I am trying to implement a one to many stream flutter app from following your tutorial, i have made a few changes to your code. when one user joins a room to watch other users stream it works perfectly but when a second user tries to also join the room it gives an error (Error: InvalidStateError: Failed to execute 'setRemoteDescription' on 'RTCPeerConnection': Failed to set remote answer sdp: Called in wrong state: stable)
can you share the code plz : (
@@abdarhmanabuhejleh6548 Thank you for your reply. I had to use RTMP protocol because I couldn't find a solution with webrtc. Nice coding!
hi i have a problem when hang up, the webcam light still on, are you got the same problem too?
fixed it. i accidentally assigned new localstream every time i init a room
Is this working in iOS and Android apps? My RTCPeerConnectionState keeps failing.
Mhhh last time I checked it worked but feel free to crate a GitHub issue and I’ll have a look
Richtig Gutes Video . Hast du auch einen Deutschen Kanal ?

Sir, Please make a Video on How to localize (pdf text change to user selected language text) Pdf document in flutter???
❤️ From Pakistan
Sounds quite difficult you problably need not only a translation package of your choice but also a pdf generator. I will add it to my video list thanks for the suggestion.
hey can make video on data modal classes Please ??
Sure sounds like a topic a lot of people would be interested. I will add it to my list.
more then 2 people Can join meeting
Yes they can but it will be a very big enhancement because you will have to keep track of the different rooms and how to connect them. I was not able to take a look into that but I am sure there are quite some good tutorials out there on how to create it. The easiest way is probably to follow along a web tutorial and convert it to Dart and Flutter.
Hey!! will this work for Android ?
Hi I am looking for a help on webrtc
It's obvious that webrtc with Flutter is hell. I've been trying to do something with it on my own with no success even as an experienced developer who has done something with webrtc in the past. Now I can't even get the app to run after installing the newer version of flutter webrtc
hi sir i used u r code but remote video is not streaming
Try adding the await keyword to signaling.openUserMedia(_localRenderer, _remoteRenderer);
Flutter Multivendor E-commerce app
just support dart web ?
How to use this without Firebase?
If you do not want to use firebase you can do it with nearly every Real time DB provider such as Supabase etc.
If you would like to create your own Server or want to host it yourself it getting tricky, you will need a Signiling server as explained here: antmedia.io/webrtc-signaling-servers-everything-you-need-to-know/
@@FlutterExplained Thank you very much for replying! This webRTC stuff is the most complicated stuff I had to deal with so far haha. I'm currently learning dart/flutter and I wasn't able to figure it out how to actually use this package.
Yeah same for me the video took me more than a month. Still working on the next video but could not find the time to invest 🙃
