Screen share while being in Media Session

OpenVidu v2 How to implement?
1

HI
We want to test if “ScreenShare” feature while being in media ( Audio / Video) session

Lets take a use case with Two Participants being on either Audio or Video Call.

We want to check if OV supports Screen Sharing when both the participants are on either Audio / Video call. So while being the Audio / Video call, if one of the user wants to share their Screen, can they both continue to be in the the Audio / Video call session while doing screen sharing OR will Screen Share replace / tear down the ongoing media (audio / video) session ?

Hello,

openvidu-browser currently only supports sending one video (from camera or from screenshare). But some applications implement a workaround over this limitation creating two OpenVidu-browser in the browser simulating two users. One openvidu-browser is used for camera and the another one for screenshare.

You can see this “pattern” in the OpenVidu Call demo application and in the web component.

Regards
