Hello,

as I know KMS support media routing (sfu) and media mixing (mcu).  
What das Open Vidu support here?

As described in the docs (Rest Api) when creating a session there is a parameter named “media mode”.  
The values are “ROUTED” or “RELAYED” (the second is not supported yet and i think it was meant for P2P sessions).

I then assume that the first parameter is for the type SFU. Am I correct in this assumption?

Regards,

Chris

You are 100% correct. No MCU support in OpenVidu though, exclusively SFU.

Regards.

Hi @pabloFuente , according to [https://docs.openvidu.io/en/2.15.0/troubleshooting/](https://docs.openvidu.io/en/2.15.0/troubleshooting/), the MCU seems to be a feature that openvidu is planning to add/implement. Any roadmap you can share regarding that? Thanks!
