FAQ

Why do I have to manually enable streaming?

Chrome security, no way around it. Tab streaming has to be invoked by user. https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/tabCapture#method-capture

Why clicking on "Stream to EDL" sometimes doesn't work?

Make sure that window you are trying to enable streaming for is focused.

Why my styles are not getting synced?

Currently, inline styles (element.style {}, style="") are not being synced (#11). Only changes in existing <link>ed styles and rules created with New Style Rule are being synced.

Why drag&drop, scrolling iframes, cmd + a and other complex interactions don't work on the device preview?

All events have to be passed from device preview to the actual window. Currently, only these events are passed:

• clicking
• keyboard events (keypress, keyup, keydown - including alt/cmd/shift key status)
• vertical and horizontal scrolling of the document.body

Sometimes one of devices gets out of sync, why?

This can happen when website is serving different content or redirects to different places depending on userAgent. It can also happen when browser-sync script is not yet injected in one of the windows when you change pages. To fix that, just click on the URL bar and hit ENTER to sync all devices again.
