This tutorial mainly introduces how to implement screen sharing in TRTC Web SDK.
Demo
Usage
Start Screen Sharing
const trtcA = TRTC.create();await trtcA.enterRoom({scene: 'rtc',sdkAppId: 140000000, // Fill in your sdkAppIduserId: 'userA', // Fill in your userIduserSig: 'userA_sig', // Fill in userSig corresponding to userIdroomId: 6969})await trtcA.startScreenShare();// Setting a view if you need to preview local screen sharing.await trtcA.startScreenShare({ view: 'local-screen-sharing-element-id' });
The SDK uses the 1080p parameter configuration by default to capture screen sharing, you can customize this parameter by referring to trtc.startScreenShare({ option: { profile: '720p' }})
Play Remote Screen Sharing
const trtcB = TRTC.create();trtcB.on(TRTC.EVENT.REMOTE_VIDEO_AVAILABLE, ({ userId, streamType }) => {// Main video streamif (streamType === TRTC.TYPE.STREAM_TYPE_MAIN) {trtcB.startRemoteVideo({ userId, streamType, view: `${userId}_main` });} else {// Sub video stream, it's remote screen sharing.// 'view' is the element id of a div for video playback.trtcB.startRemoteVideo({ userId, streamType, view: `${userId}_screen` });}});await trtcB.enterRoom({scene: 'rtc',sdkAppId: 140000000, // Fill in your sdkAppIduserId: 'userB', // Fill in your userIduserSig: 'userB_sig', // Fill in userSig corresponding to userIdroomId: 6969})
What is the main/sub video stream?
1. TRTC has a main video stream (main stream) and an sub video stream (sub stream).
2. The camera is published through the main stream, and the screen sharing is published through the sub stream.
3. The main video stream includes: big stream and small stream. By default, TRTC.startRemoteVideo plays the big stream, and the small stream can be played through the small parameter. Refer to: Optimize Multi-Person Video Calls.
Screen Sharing + System Audio
await trtcA.startScreenShare({ option: { systemAudio: true }});
Capturing system audio is only supported by Chromium based browser M74+, such as Chrome, Edge, Opera.
OS | System Audio | Tab Audio |
Windows | Yes | Yes |
MacOS | No | Yes |
Linux | No | Yes |
Non-Chromium based browser, such as Safari, Firefox | No | No |
Check Share audio in the pop-up dialog box, and the system audio will be mixed with the local microphone and published. Other users in the room will receive the TRTC.EVENT.REMOTE_AUDIO_AVALIABLE event.
Stop Screen Sharing
1. Call trtc.stopScreenShare() to stop screen sharing.
2. Other users in the room will receive the TRTC.EVENT.REMOTE_VIDEO_UNAVAILABLE event, and streamType is TRTC.TYPE.STREAM_TYPE_SUB.
// Stop screen sharingawait trtcA.stopScreenShare();trtcB.on(TRTC.EVENT.REMOTE_VIDEO_UNAVAILABLE, ({ userId, streamType }) => {// Remote user stopped the screen sharing.if (streamType === TRTC.TYPE.STREAM_TYPE_SUB) {}})
In addition, users may also stop screen sharing through the browser's own button, SDK will stop screen sharing when user click the Stop Button. You can listen for the TRTC.EVENT.SCREEN_SHARE_STOPPED event.
// Listen for local screen sharing stop eventtrtcA.on(TRTC.EVENT.SCREEN_SHARE_STOPPED, () => {console.log('screen sharing was stopped');});
FAQ
1. Safari screen sharing error getDisplayMedia must be called from a user gesture handler
This is because Safari restricts the getDisplayMedia screen capture interface, which must be called within 1 second of the callback function of the user click event.
// goodasync function onClick() {// It is recommended to execute the collection logic first when onClick is executedawait trtcA.startScreenShare();await trtcA.enterRoom({roomId: 123123,sdkAppId: 140000000, // Fill in your sdkAppIduserId: 'userA', // Fill in your userIduserSig: 'userA_sig', // Fill in userSig corresponding to userId});}// badasync function onClick() {await trtcA.enterRoom({roomId: 123123,sdkAppId: 140000000, // Fill in your sdkAppIduserId: 'userA', // Fill in your userIduserSig: 'userA_sig', // Fill in userSig corresponding to userId});// Entering the room may take more than 1s, and the collection may failawait trtcA.startScreenShare();}
2. Mac Chrome screen sharing fails with the error message "NotAllowedError: Permission denied by system" or "NotReadableError: Could not start video source" when screen recording is already authorized.
