Hello, thanks for your fast response. I cleared cache and Facebook cookies, disabled ublock origin but it's still show the message "Connect a camera and a microphone to make a call. If they're already connected, try restarting your browser and closing any other applications that use a camera or microphone." Please help, thanks!

Hi, Would you please do this :

Click the padlock or the little 'i' in a circle to the left of the site's address, then click the '>' icon, then 'More Information' => Permissions

Scroll down to 'Use Your Microphone' and uncheck the 'Use default' box, then choose 'Allow' to make sure the microphone is accessible during your call.

If necessary : do the same with 'Use the Camera'.

Bummer  ! (but : good for you though)

You will undoubtedly already have checked the settings for microphone and camera in Options => Privacy & Security, under Permissions ...... (?)

Maybe a rhetorical question, but after you changed those settings, did you then close and restart Firefox  ?

I found this - probably won't be much help either, but thought I'd show you anyway :

But that's great - well done, you  !!!

Now, would you please mark your own, last post as Chosen Solution  ?
