I am working on a video recording task using MediaRecorder API. As from frontend I can start the webcam, record video, play the recorded video and download the video.
But when I try to upload the video to php server, it's not at all working. I don't really understand why it is happening, I also tried using so many methods but none of it is working. Please check the code attatched below.
JS:-
let mediaRecorder
let recordedBlobs
const errorMsgElement = document.querySelector('span#errorMsg');
const recordedVideo = document.querySelector('video#recorded');
const recordButton = document.querySelector('button#record');
const playButton = document.querySelector('button#play');
const downloadButton = document.querySelector('button#download');
document.querySelector("button#start").addEventListener("click", async function() {
const hasEchoCancellation = document.querySelector("#echoCancellation").checked
const constraints = {
audio: {
echoCancellation:{
exact: hasEchoCancellation
}
},
video: {
width: 1280,
height: 720
}
}
await init(constraints)
})
async function init(constraints) {
try {
const stream = await navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia(constraints)
handleSuccess(stream)
} catch(e) {
console.log(e)
}
}
function handleSuccess(stream) {
recordButton.disabled = false
window.stream = stream
const gumVideo = document.querySelector("video#gum")
gumVideo.srcObject = stream
}
recordButton.addEventListener("click", () => {
if(recordButton.textContent === "Record") {
startRecording()
} else {
stopRecording()
recordButton.textContent = 'Record'
playButton.disabled = false
downloadButton.disabled = false
}
})
function startRecording() {
recordedBlobs = []
let options = {
mimeType: "video/webm;codecs=vp9,opus"
}
try {
mediaRecorder = new MediaRecorder(window.stream, options)
} catch(e) {
console.log(e)
}
recordButton.textContent = "Stop Recording"
playButton.disabled = true
downloadButton.disabled = true
mediaRecorder.onstop = (event) => {
console.log('Recording Stopped')
}
mediaRecorder.ondataavailable = handleDataAvailable
mediaRecorder.start()
}
function handleDataAvailable(event) {
if(event.data && event.data.size > 0) {
recordedBlobs.push(event.data)
}
}
function stopRecording() {
mediaRecorder.stop()
}
playButton.addEventListener('click', function() {
const superBuffer = new Blob(recordedBlobs, {
type: 'video/webm'
})
var file = new File([superBuffer], 'test.webm')
var url = window.URL.createObjectURL(superBuffer)
// var video = blobToFile(superBuffer, 'test.webm')
sendToServer(file)
recordedVideo.src = null
recordedVideo.srcObject = null
recordedVideo.src = url
recordedVideo.controls = true
recordedVideo.play()
})
downloadButton.addEventListener('click', () => {
const blob = new Blob(recordedBlobs, {type: 'video/mp4'});
const url = window.URL.createObjectURL(blob);
const a = document.createElement('a');
a.style.display = 'none';
a.href = url;
a.download = 'test.mp4';
document.body.appendChild(a);
a.click();
setTimeout(() => {
document.body.removeChild(a);
window.URL.revokeObjectURL(url);
}, 100);
});
function sendToServer(file) {
let url = 'send.php'
let headers = {
'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
}
var formData = new FormData()
formData.append("file", file)
axios.post(url, formData, headers)
.then((response) => {
console.log(response.data)
})
.catch((error) => {
console.log(error.response)
})
}
function blobToFile(theBlob, fileName){
//A Blob() is almost a File() - it's just missing the two properties below which we will add
theBlob.lastModifiedDate = new Date();
theBlob.name = fileName;
return theBlob;
}
PHP:-
$target_dir = "uploads/";
$target_file = $target_dir . 'test.webm';
if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"], $target_file)) {
echo "File uploaded successfully";
} else {
echo "File not uploaded";
}
print_r($_FILES['file']['error']);
No matter how much I tried, I can't figure out why it is not working. It is showing that "File not uploaded" like it can't read the file from tmp_name. Please help me fix the problem. Any help on this problem will be really appreciated. Thank you.
