I am curious if there is an extension or something for Firefox, Chrome, or any other browser, which would allow me to pick a photo or video instead of really turning on the camera, when browser requests access to the camera (and for photo it would then convert it to like a 10 second static video stream and then "turn off" camera and for video it would play it and then at the end it would "turn off" camera).
I am asking because I find again and again legitimate uses of this. For example, site asks for passport image to be shown to the camera, and I have it on my disk, so instead of trying to find my passport, I could just have an image/video I would pick. Or my bank supports paying an invoice by showing a QR code with camera to the website, but I get a QR code as PDF invoice. Now I would have to print a digital invoice to paper to be able to show it as QR code back to the website. Nonsense.
I know of --use-fake-device-for-media-stream CLI argument in Chrome, but I would like something user friendly, where I can just pick files during regular browsing.
