Kurento Media Server MCU


I am building an app using WebRtc in combination with Kurento Media Server. As far as I understand, Kurento's default approach dealing with multi-point is Routing.

How can one change Routing to MCU?

Any help will be appreciated!


Solution

  • If you want to combine all incoming streams into one single stream, so that each participant receives only one stream, you can use a special type of mixing media element called Composite.

    There are some things that you should consider, however:

    • The task of mixing those streams is quite CPU intense. Monitor the load of your system to know how it behaves.
    • The size of each stream, once combined, depends on the total number of streams. A mesh layout is forced into an 800x600 stream.
