## Setup Screensharing

### Chrome

Chrome should work out of the box.

### Firefox

As of Firefox >= 36 you must append the domain being used to the allowed domains
Screen sharing has been supported since Firefox 36.
Before Firefox 52, you must append the domain being used to the allowed domains
to access your screen. You do this by navigating to `about:config`, search for
'media.getusermedia.screensharing.allowed_domains', and append the domain
`media.getusermedia.screensharing.allowed_domains`, and append the domain
to the list of strings. You can edit the field simply by double clicking on it.
Ensure that you follow the syntax rules of the field. If you are using an `ip:port`
url, simply append `ip` to the list. Also ensure that you are using `https`,
otherwise permission will be denied to share your screen. You do not need to restart
or reload in order for it to take affect.

The modification to `media.getusermedia.screensharing.allowed_domains` can also be done with an addon.
See (SkyWay-ScreenShare)[https://github.com/nttcom/SkyWay-ScreenShare] for an example.
