What is Mozilla doing with Firefox?
summary
Mozilla adds a canvas-to-WebRTC input so code calls captureStream(canvas,15) to get a video track and attach it to RTCPeerConnection; demo runs locally and supports mixing multiple cameras, screen and camera into one canvas. Feature ships behind prefs in Firefox 41 beta and aims for Firefox 43 release, with audio work (16→32 kHz, stereo pending Opus use) and IPv6/ICE-TCP support; an EC2 proof-of-concept MCU mixes up to eight participants but is not production-grade.
