5 Factors to Consider When Choosing Your WebRTC Media Server

If you’re ready to build a WebRTC based live video application, then the most important architectural decision you need to make is what media server to use. A purely Peer-to-Peer (P2P) WebRTC video call does not require a media server. All video and audio media is transferred between the peers, and all your application has to do is establish the P2P connection using a process known as signaling.  However, the vast majority of WebRTC applications

Configuring Asterisk as a WebRTC SFU Media Server

WebRTC was designed to be a peer to peer communication system. However, it gives rise to a complicated mesh system when the number of participants increases. A Selective Forwarding Unit (SFU) is an alternate topology for connecting through a centralized server to route outgoing media streams from one to many users.  Peer to Peer WebRTC Stream Multi-point Peer to Peer WebRTC Stream The multi-party peer to peer party configuration leads to enormous strain on a user

Comments Off on Using DTX for Audio Optimization in Large Multi-Party Calls

Using DTX for Audio Optimization in Large Multi-Party Calls

In large, multi-party calls there are often just one or two main speakers. The rest of the participants are simply listening with their mic muted. The calls could be updates for shareholders, sales teams, vendors, regional offices, or factories – the use cases are endless. However, also are the number of empty audio packets going back and forth. This can cause a waste of audio bandwidth for silent participants. Handling low bandwidth scenarios to ensure the

It is hard to believe that it was under a year ago that the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) announced that WebRTC was an official standard. Still, while it is being used by billions to communicate and was invaluable in keeping us connected during the pandemic, WebRTC is still evolving. Developers love Twilio Programmable Video because it simplifies WebRTC usage. But differences between browsers and operating systems can still be

Mariana Blogs on Twilio About Creating Great UX in Telehealth Applications

Building a quality telehealth application is about much more than getting the video to work. It’s about creating a reliable and trustworthy experience between a patient and their healthcare provider. Meeting tools may have the ability to deliver face-to-face video consultations but lack the crucial touch points in a patient's journey that your users deserve. In short: There’s more on the line with a healthcare application, so solid user experience (UX) design is critical. Thoughtful

Bleeding Unit Tests

Today, with various tools and services available, developing applications with WebRTC can be done very efficiently. For example, CPaaS platforms offer a wide variety of features which abstract the complex details of WebRTC away from the developer. This enables developers to build new features very quickly. However, with rapid development, we have a greater need to maintain the code base. Automated unit tests are very good for this purpose and should be written to verify
