Details
When screen sharing as a guest in a group room, in &sstype=2
screen sharing mode, the screen share will now create a second stream for the screen share, keeping your webcam also.
&screenshareid
will preset the ID the screen share will have, making the stream ID for the screen share easier to predict and prep for.
Without this, the screen share ID in &sstype=2
mode is random, which is a decision made to increase security. This complication will be addressed in the future.
&screenshareid
doesn't work with &screensharetype=3
. When using &screensharetype=3
the screen share gets the appendix :s
added to the stream ID of the guest.
As of VDO.Ninja v23,&screensharetype=3
is default, but you can revert back to &screensharetype=2
or use the new &screensharetype=3
method post-fix :s
method of identify screen shares.
