do you or anyone else happen to know an extension that allows getUserMedia to work without https? i just need a photo from a webcam (a la <input file capture> that opens a camera on a smartphone) for a local network webapp. configuring https just for this is fickle.
it should work over http in the special case of localhost. try port forwarding localhost:80 to the webapp.
Love it! Thank you.
