Reset to default 3From MDN, in the page you linked in your question:
NotReadableErrorAlthough the user granted permission to use the matching devices, a hardware error occurred at the operating system, browser, or Web page level which prevented access to the device.
This is a problem that happens between the browser and the device. It might be because of the driver. Your example works for me (not in the Stack Snippet), so I can't tell you what's exactly happening and how to solve it.
I would remend you updating your drivers.
It may be the camera is already being used by another process
