Discord voice messaging plugin: getUserMedia() is not supported

Error: Failed to start MediaRecorder: Failed to execute ‘getUserMedia’ on “MediaDevices”: getUserMedia is not supported.

Original: https://github.com/MKSx/Send-Audio-Plugin-BetterDiscord Error on line 1026.

UPD: getUserMedia() disabled in discord, alternative:https://github.com/l-Nuril-l/Voice-Messages-Plugin-BetterDiscord

UPD2: The alternative is dead

Code with problem:

navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({audio: 'true'}).then(s => {
                plugin.media = new MediaRecorder(s);
                Logger.log("MediaRecorder started successfully");
            })

Update

I saw that you can potentially add flags to the discord app from the following link: https://www.reddit.com/r/discordapp/comments/91btrn/adding_electron_flags_to_discord_startup/

There a full list of potential command line switches @ https://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/ .

You probably need to set the correct URL/domain after the parameter, e.g.

Discord.exe --unsafely-treat-insecure-origin-as-secure=
