Webcam Capture through Webviewer / not working

I made an awesome capture utility to capture pics from a webcam for ID card purposes. Works perfect online, but in the fm web viewer is does not (it loads the basic html, but nothing more). It uses javascript and css, nothing fancy or out of this world. Tried it as a link to my server, and as complete html code. Anyone got an idea on why this is not working?

This talks to the camera on the computer.

We recently did WebView.InstallUserMediaAccess in MBS Plugin to enable camera access on macOS and iOS in FileMaker.

Not for Windows as well? Need it cross platform, the reason why I chose the web viewer way...

Would you be willing to share your FM file? I could take a look at it. I am also trying to do something similar.
