Capture Handle Identity #645

Ya ya yawm TAG!

I'm requesting a TAG review of Capture Handle Identity.

The proposed capture handle is a mechanism that allows a web-application to ergonomically and confidently identify the web-application which it is display-capturing - provided that the captured application has opted-in. Such identification allows these two applications to collaborate in interesting ways. For example, if a VC application is capturing a presentation, then the VC application can expose user-controls for previous/next-slide directly in the VC application. This lets the user navigate presentations without having to jump between the VC and presentation tabs.

Further details:

  • I have reviewed the TAG's Web Platform Design Principles
  • Relevant time constraints or deadlines: Origin Trial has started in Chrome m92
  • The group where the work on this specification is currently being done: WebRTC WG
  • The group where standardization of this work is intended to be done (if current group is a community group or other incubation venue): W3C under mediacapture-handle/identity/.
  • Major unresolved issues with or opposition to this specification: N/A (minor issues remain and are being discussed)
  • This work is being funded by: Google

We'd prefer the TAG provide feedback as (please delete all but the desired option):
