RTCRTPSender exposes DSCP marking via `networkPriority` in the encodings
configuration dictionaries. That should allow us to control
QoS priorities for different media streams, eg audio with higher network
priority than video. The only browser that implements that right
now is Chromium.
To use this, the public.app.media.networkPriorities configuration in
settings.yml. Audio, camera and screenshare priorities can be controlled
separately. For further info on the possible values, see:
- https://www.w3.org/TR/webrtc-priority/
- https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8837#section-5
The 'inactive' event is fired whenever the stream gets inactive (ie it
cannot be used anymore), and there are scenarios where that is
unexpected behavior and must be handled accordingly.
The main example of that is when gUM permissions are revoked by the user
via the browser's permission management panel.
Since MediaStream/Track inactive events aren't being handled in such
scenarios, what actually happens is that the camera just freezes without
further indication why.
This commit handles those scenarios in both video-preview and
video-provider by:
- 1) correctly stopping the camera (provider)
- 2) surfacing a toast (provider) or error indication (preview)
Add a new avatar component to video list item
Change the design of the components, following the new video list idea
Add icons related to the state of the user
New features:
- A simplified echo test mode that only does a local loopback (instead of
going to FS and back)
- A volume meter for microphone streams to the AudioSettings view
Those two features are experimental and disabled by default; see
public.app.media.simplifiedEchoTest and public.app.media.showVolumeMeter configs
Collateral changes:
- fix: localize fallback device strings in AudioSettings/DeviceSelector
- Refactor on some media stream utils to be re-usable across components
- Refactor in AudioSettings to keep gUM #uses stable.
* TODO: need to pass streams through AudioManager to avoid the surplus gUM.
- fix(audio): drop ScriptProcessorNode usage (deprecated)
* Used in volume meter for tracking - use hark instead
Tries to mitigate too-rapidly-switching camera profiles causing video freezes
due to encoder resets. Excluding constraints might not help a lot since
the thing that actually restarts the encoder is the bitrate change, but
they're not really important in the context of dynamic profiles.
We can't get rid of bitrate changes, though, since it's what does the actual
quality constraining.
The camera profile change debounce timer is 2.5s by default (which is
the same timer used for floor changes).
Also fixed an issue with camera profile backfiring due to badly defined peers
Include `meetingCameraCap` API param on create and enforce both server and
client to control the number of simultaneous webcams a meeting can have.
Disabled by default.
Include `userCameraCap` API param on create and enforce both server and
client to control the number of simultaneous webcams an user can share.
Default set to 3.
video-provider is a race-condition prone mess and those callbacks were missing try-catches so eventual failures would bubble up as uncaught errors and not be logged properly
It`s worth mentioning that due to a number of tangential design failures in that component, 90% of the errors generate are, to the end user, invisible false positives. Thus: expect an increase in false-positive errors logs with this
Makes clicking the camera button always open the video preview modal
when a camera is already shared on a mobile endpoint even when
skip_video_preview is true.
This allows mobile users to change virtual backgrounds.
Video preview modal opens when user clicks on the webcam selector
button/chevron even if the client is set to skip video preview
(userdata-bbb_skip_video_preview=true).
Added extra proptypes validation to video-list-item
Made sure to add extra ?. checks to voiceUsers as well because... who knows?
Removed unused user role prop from video-list-item
The base peer object reference was moved from the component to service for _reasons_
That caused an issue where the component lifecycle would mess up that
centralized reference dictionary on certain conditions. That could cause viewing
sessions to fail intermittently
This reverts the location of the base dictionary reference back to
video-provider/component
