Web based audio/video chat api provider (no webrtc)

I had developed a video chat script for a website with opentok flash.But opentok stopped this flash service 6 months ago and they force their clients to use their webrtc solutions.So my application has became useless because of this.

For the moment webrtc limits developers about some key points.

Flash based providers were working fine for the needs above, but I can no longer find one now. Can anybody lead me to find a paid/free api provider for my needs ?

Thanks in advance.

Just wanted to let you know that OpenTok will in fact be able to support device enumeration across Chrome, Firefox, and IE (with plugin) very soon. Within a couple weeks, the next version of Firefox (39) will be released, and opentok.js will also have a release, which will normalize the different APIs offered by the browsers as one API for you to use called OT.getDevices().

Also, OpenTok already has the ability to make multiple streams from the same user using different audio/video sources. You can pass an audioDevice and videoDevice option into the OT.initPublisher(apiKey, target, options) method using one of the values you get back from the previous method.

Today all of this works in Chrome, so give it a try, and very shortly you will have it across IE and Firefox as well.
