Place and control 1:1 video calls with camera, torch, and switches.

Video Calls

Start a 1:1 video call with mediaType: 'video'.

Start a call

const call = await client.startCall({
  calleeId: 'bob',
  mediaType: 'video',
});

Or use CallingScreen and choose video from the dialer / demo UI.

Incoming video

On the incoming screen:

Local camera preview can show while ringing (when joining with video)
Caller may toggle join with video off to answer as audio
Accept is still swipe up on the green control (video camera icon when joining with video)
Decline remains a single tap on red

Details: Incoming Calls.

In-call controls

await client.setVideoEnabled(false); // camera off
await client.switchCamera();         // front ↔ back
await client.setTorch(true);         // when torchAvailable
await client.setMuted(true);
await client.setSpeaker(true);
await client.end();

Method	Purpose
`setVideoEnabled(enabled)`	Enable / disable local camera track
`switchCamera()`	Flip facing mode
`setTorch(enabled)`	Flash when supported (`torchAvailable` on the call)
`setMuted` / `setSpeaker` / `end`	Same as voice

Rendering video

Use the packaged views:

tsx

import { LocalVideoView, RemoteVideoView } from '@alaznah/calling';

<LocalVideoView stream={call.localStream} mirror objectFit="cover" />
<RemoteVideoView stream={call.remoteStream} objectFit="cover" />

CallingUI / ActiveCallScreen wire these automatically for the default experience.

Permissions

await requestCallPermissions({ video: true });

You need both microphone and camera usage descriptions / permissions — see Permissions.

Config tips

{
  facingMode: 'user', // or 'environment'
  // ...
}
