&sstype
Value | Description |
---|---|
1 | Replaces the webcam screen with the screen share |
2 | Creates a totally new connection for the screen share |
3 | Reuses the existing connection, adding a second video track |
This parameter can be used to specify which type of screen sharing logic is used.
screensharetype=1
replaces the webcam screen with the screen sharescreensharetype=2
creates a totally new connection for the screen sharescreensharetype=3
reuses the existing connection, adding a second video track; also doesn't show the local screen share window
I hope to have
screensharetype=3
become the standard for sharing screens eventually, but for now it will remain optional, until the issues are all worked out.As a viewer or scene link, to specify only loading the
&screensharetype=3
screen share, you can now use &view=xxxx:s
, where :s
is appended to the end of the stream ID. This tells the system to ignore the webcam/mic feed, and just send over the screen share. You can do &view=xxxx,xxxx:s
to target both webcam and screen share though. I may change this syntax over time, but for now it works. The solo-links in the director's room has this :s
applied already where needed.Last modified 3mo ago
