Notes
- hasFeature: https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebAPI/Navigator.hasFeature
- privacy concerns
- speaking with other browser vendors
- short term: privileged-only
- TV Tuner API
- Working draft: http://airpingu.github.io/tv-tuner-api/index.html
- Issue: how to get the MediaStream from HDMI, AV, WiFi Display... etc?
- We already had getUserMedia(...) to retrieve the MediaStream: http://dev.w3.org/2011/webrtc/editor/archives/20140218/getusermedia.html
- However, how can the app know when/which input ports are connected or not? Need a new Input Ports Web API?
- option: add new parameter to gUm's dictionary to specify input (and poll)
- still need to know when things are plugged in (if want push-based mechanism)
- an example: gamepad API has "gamepad{dis,}connected" events sent to window object: https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/gamepad/raw-file/default/gamepad.html#gamepadevent-interface
