ConferenceParameters

The ConferenceParameters model allows the application to:

Create an audio-only conference
Enable Dolby Voice
Turn the live recording on and off
Set the transmission bitrate adaptation mode
Customize the waiting time before terminating an empty conference
Change the video codec that is used during conferences

Properties

audioOnly

• Optional audioOnly: boolean

A boolean that indicates whether the application wishes to create an audio-only conference. Setting this parameter to true results in creating a conference that does not allow participants to enable their videos. If a participant calls the startVideo method in an audio-only conference, the SDK returns ServerError.

dolbyVoice

• Optional dolbyVoice: boolean

A boolean that indicates whether the application wishes to create a conference with Dolby Voice enabled. For more information about Dolby Voice, see this article. By default, the parameter is set to true.

liveRecording

• liveRecording: boolean

Turns the live recording on and off. Specify this parameter during the conference creation.

When set to true, the recorded file is available at the end of the call and can be downloaded immediately.
When set to false, the remix API must be called after the conference to generate and retrieve the recorded file.

This parameter does not start the recording; use the start method to turn it on.

By default, the value is set to false.

rtcpMode

• rtcpMode: string

The bitrate adaptation mode for the video transmission. The rtcpMode triggers the server to monitor the receivers’ available bandwidth. Based on the analyzed value, the server informs the video sender to automatically adjust the quality of the transmitted video streams.

The possible values are:

worst: adjusts the transmission bitrate to the receiver who has the worst network conditions
average: averages the available bandwidth of all the receivers and adjusts the transmission bitrate to this value
max: does not adjust the transmission bitrate to the receiver’s bandwidth

By default, the value is set to average.

ttl

• ttl: number

The time to live that enables customizing the waiting time (in seconds) and terminating empty conferences.
The Voxeet service terminates conferences after the established time if no one has joined the new conference or the last participant has left it. The default value is 0 seconds.

videoCodec

• videoCodec: string

The preferred video codec that is used during conferences, either H264, VP8, or none. By default, the value is set to H264. Setting this parameter to none results in creating a conference that does not allow participants to enable their videos.
