Comment 3 Janne Rönkkö 2021-04-07 12:18:40 UTC 
I just realized that the issue I had with whereby.com was also due to this extension.

Whereby.com has knock functionality that takes a photo using your webcam when you knock. Taking that photo fails when the extension is enabled.

Maybe the known sites should be listed automatically but there should be an option for the user to add more sites to the list of sites.

Disable media controls on known conferencing pages

It can interfere with webcam or microphone and isn't meant
to control these anyway. Let's just disable them here
instead of trying to chase after all of them.
