The current VC is very much a PoC. This is a high-level bug to track the process of making it not suck.

well, it no longer segfaults all the time. but it could do with a lot more love:

  • Audio quality seems great from iOS participants, but terrible from Chrome. It's like there's a clipping problem somewhere.
  • Video quality is quite artefacty
  • It's unclear if anything is speaking RTCP? Therefore no congestion control?
  • There is no attempt to synchronise the JBs for audio & video, so lipsync can drift
  • We should be tracking state in the room for current focus MXID, to support remote conf servers
  • We should be relaying into the room to say who's currently speaking, and who's on voice & video, and whether the conf itself is video or not.

Longer term plan is to look at SFU options via Jitsi or Janus or similar.
