Device settings

The SDK provides device settings components for audio and video selection:

DeviceSelectorVideo - camera selection
DeviceSelectorAudioInput - microphone selection
DeviceSelectorAudioOutput - speaker selection
AudioVolumeIndicator - visual audio level indicator
SpeakerTest - test speaker output
DeviceSettings - combines all selectors

Best Practices

Use DeviceSettings for a complete settings panel.
Use individual selectors for custom layouts.
Show device settings in a lobby/preview screen before joining calls.

General usage

import { Call, DeviceSettings, StreamCall } from "@stream-io/video-react-sdk";

const MyDevicePanel = () => {
  let call: Call;

  return (
    <StreamCall call={call}>
      <DeviceSettings />
    </StreamCall>
  );
};

Or use the components individually:

import {
  Call,
  DeviceSelectorAudioInput,
  DeviceSelectorVideo,
  StreamCall,
} from "@stream-io/video-react-sdk";

const MyDevicePanel = () => {
  let call: Call;

  return (
    <StreamCall call={call}>
      <DeviceSelectorVideo />
      <DeviceSelectorAudioInput />
    </StreamCall>
  );
};
