I’ve been developing an extension that allows users to play a game. The user inputs come through in near real time, but the update of the game state is broadcasted through the stream which takes an average 4 seconds. This is an incredibly slow for what I am doing. I have a workaround of showing the same feed as direct video in near real time in the extension, but it appears to be blocked even though there seems to be allowances for it. I put the base URL used in the video tag in the “Allowlist for Media Domains”, and it is secure. Yet I get an “net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_ORB.” error on the feed connection response in the browser. Am I missing something or is this not allowed?
ORB can be a number of things.
It could be 4xx-ing or it could be CORS or it could be something else.
Doesn’t the “Allowlist for Media Domains” list, make the CORS exception for those sites. I have tested this solution on personal test site, so I know it works in general. Is there any working examples of video feeds working in Extensions? I want to make sure this isn’t being blocked by the Twitch page security settings.
That defines CSP
CSP is set on a server that defines what the website can connect to
CORS on the destination server defines what can connect to it.
Is there an exception setting for CORS?
Cors is set your server on you EBS/Content Server
Ok, I’ll look into this.
