Here's what we do when user activates mic:
1 - When we do something similar to listenonly's joining process
until we find a valid candidate-pair. The information about this
local candidate is store.
2 - We then start a new userAgent, and as soon as browser finds
a candidate with the same local ip address, we leave only this
candidate in the SDP and send this to FreeSWITCH. SDP should
contain only a single candidate.
3 - The rest of signaling process is basically the same.
Remove parts of a previous connection monitor.
To add some context (as far as my memory goes) to the multiple connection
monitor features the product has, `stats` (currently named `connection status`)
was introduced at the Flash client back in ~2016. @fcecagno and I did it
as a BigBlueButton's Summit activity. Our work was squashed into a single
commit in 92554f8b3e :).
I'm not sure about the whole story behind `network information` (the late
connection monitor added to the HTML5 client) but I assume it should work
as a collector for a bunch of different connectivity monitors. I remember
when it was introduced but I don't know why it wasn't adopted. My best guess
would be because of some performance issues the `user list` had back then.
To follow on why `connection status` replaced `network information` at the
HTML5 client, when I did the `multiple webcams` feature I had to refactor
a big chunk of the `video provider` (#8374). Something that wasn't really
helping there was the adaptation of `stats` that was made to show local
feedback for each webcam connection. Although this feature wasn't being
used anymore, `network information` did rely on that to build up data. With
this monitor gone I assumed it was my responsibility to provide an alternative
so I promoted Mconf's port of the Flash `stats` monitor to BigBlueButton's
HTML5 client (#8579).
Well, that's my perspective on how things went for those features. If
anyone would like to correct me on something or add something else on
that history I would appreciate to know.
- Removed the connection-status history from the user list's gear
icon and now is opened by the connection-status button. Moderators will
render the same modal as before and viewers will only have access to their
own data.
- Added data-savings shortcut at the connection-status modal.
- Added websocket round-trip time.
Fixed two occurrences where the tryGenerateIceCandidates workaround rejected without an error, which borked the callers error handling
Also put it behind a config flag. This workaround used to be important when Kurento didnt infer prflx candidates properly, but that`s no longer the case. With the flag, we can disable the workaround to see if there`s any visible regression and hopefully remove it down the road
This considerably changes the way we process audio signaling and start audio elements in user's browser.
We now avoid using AudioContext element for both microphone and listenonly calls, once it is unstable for some iOS devices (cracky audio, user stops hearing audio after a while).
Increased default value for listenOnlyCallTimeout: this avoids activating FreeSWITCH's fallback when ICE negotiation takes longer than 15sec (tested on DO).
Increased listenonly logs.
This fixes#8133#10388
Refactored STUN/TURN fetch to be done only once, when successful, per session and cache it in mem to avoid too many reqs. Current way is a bit dumb, this should increase reliability a bit more. The caching is configurable so folks who want to use very short lived TURN credentials can disable it
Add a fallback STUN config option to be used when the default STUN/TURN fetch fails
Clean the safari/no candidate generation pre flight check from 3rd party STUNs
Fix deadlock in audio join when STUN/TURN fetch failed
