So, on mozqa.com we have a basic test for mozGetUserMedia:
http://mozqa.com/data/webapi/camera/video_basic.html

Retrieving the video works fine that way. So something is broken with the RTC code then. I don't see your above mentioned error when running the referenced test locally. The Error console stays blank. Also when I run it in my debug build (created on Monday this week) I have the same problem. It's just a white area and nothing more.

Jason, this blocks our work on test automation. It would be great if we can get this sorted out as best today. Would you have the time to help? It would be really appreciated. 

It would be good to know if that also happens on other platforms or only Mac.

Worked with a tinderbox build from 9/24 (monday) on Linux.  Note: this morning's tinderbox has a bug in the DOM code with onRemoteStreamAdded

henrik: can you capture the output (I assume it's a debug build?) and attach it?  Also what rev is it build from (hg tip).  Thanks

So what I can see now is that the above two video nodes are not from the local box. If you want to see the video click on start and check the latest video node. It displays it fine for me now.

Could this have been the same issue as bug 795487?

Issue in the test from changing from src to mozSrcObject. Old and outdated, but not a bug. Closing.

I can confirm that latest tinderbox/tests works for me.
