 WebRTC Permissions UI Toggle
 ============================
 
-This is an extension for [SeaMonkey](http://www.seamonkey-project.org/) that
-toggles the **media.navigator.permission.disabled** setting on and off.
+This extension provides a UI to enable the WebRTC support in SeaMonkey. When
+you activate it (from a toolbar button or from the Tools menu in the browser),
+it does three things:
+
+* Enables WebRTC (if currently disabled)
+* Turns on the setting `media.navigator.permission.disabled`, which allows
+  all WebRTC connections without prompting
+* Checks the status of [OpenH264](http://www.openh264.org/); if it's enabled
+  but not installed, the user will be asked if they want to install or disable it
+
 SeaMonkey does not have a permissions dialog to let the user select a camera
 and microphone (see [bug 956854](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=956854)),
-so using this setting to override the dialog is the only way to enable WebRTC
-support.
+so using `media.navigator.permission.disabled` to override the dialog is the
+only way to enable WebRTC support.
 
 Of course, leaving this setting on is insecure, since any web site that's open
 will be able to get access to your microphone, camera, and screen! So be sure
 to only turn it on when you need to use WebRTC, and turn it off once you're
 done with it.
 
-Some versions of SeaMonkey might ship with WebRTC disabled by default.
-WebRTC Permissions UI Toggle 1.3.0+ will enable WebRTC while toggled on, and
-reset it to its original value when toggled off.

+------------------------
 
-* If toggling the override is configured to trigger a standard notification
-(the default), and you have windows open that were launched from JavaScript,
-the notification may appear outside of the top edge of the monitor.
+In SeaMonkey (2.49.1 and later), WebRTC is typically disabled, which means the
+`navigator.mediaDevices` object will be undefined. When this extension is
+activated, `navigator.mediaDevices` will be present.
+
+In Firefox, the user is prompted to select a camera/microphone device. In
+SeaMonkey, however, the user's default camera/microphone will always be used
+unless you specify a device. `navigator.mediaDevices.enumerateDevices` will
+get you a list of devices, but the device labels will only be included if
+there is already an active `MediaStream` from `getUserMedia`. One possible
+workaround is to start a stream, grab the list of devices, and then stop the
+stream.
