Thanks

Hi Radu

Hope you are fine.

Sorry my bad I did not explained it properlly.

So I am implementing AntMedia in a xamarin forms project and instead calling AntFrame.Start() at push of a button I want this method to be called OnAppearing() like this:

 protected override async void OnAppearing()

        {

            base.OnAppearing();

            await StartStopAndMediaPlayer();

        }

        protected override async void OnDisappearing()

        {

            base.OnDisappearing();

            await StartStopAndMediaPlayer();

        }

        protected async Task StartStopAndMediaPlayer()

        {

            if (AntFrame.IsPlaying || AntFrame.IsPublishing)

            {

                AntFrame.Stop();

            }

            else

            {

                await Task.Delay(3000);

                AntFrame.Start();

            }

        }

But if I don't put the Task.Delay() it will throw this error "The method or operation is not implemented". 

Do I need it because AntMedia is not initialized yet? Can this be avoid somehow? 

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

In javaScript it takes time to use getUserMedia and initialize properties, therefore you can't start immediately, however, I don't know how it is going on in Xamarin if it is different.

Thanks
