A few weeks ago I shared my experience studying and implementing QUIC from scratch: in shortly less than a month, I went from not knowing anything about QUIC, to have a basic stack (with WebTransport support) I could use for…

After five long years from the first edition, our Janus conference was finally back, once again in our beautiful Naples! More precisely, we met RTC developers and aficionados from all over the world on the 29th and 30th of April…
A few weeks ago I attended the first edition of what turned out to be a great event, RTC.On, and I took that opportunity to submit a talk on something I wanted to work on for quite some time: bandwidth…
As an audio mixer and MCU, the AudioBridge plugin is quite a popular plugin among Janus users and developers. It’s definitely a foundational component in our own Virtual Event Platform, for instance, where while we use an SFU approach for…
I only recently found out that Chrome has started shipping experimental support for VP9 and AV1 simulcast. If you’ve visited this blog before, you know what simulcast is already (if you don’t, make sure you read this post first!) and…
It’s been a while since last time we spoke of WHEP: just to brush up your memory, it was a few months ago, when we first introduced WHEP as a companion protocol to WHIP, that we had talked about a…
I’m always interested in testing new codecs, especially when it comes to WebRTC. Some time ago, for instance, I talked about my experiments with AV1 and H.265, AV1-SVC or multiopus. As such, when a new codec called Lyra was announced…
Audio conversations that span to hundreds, if not thousands, of people have been quite the rage in the past few years. Podcasts are a good example of this success: there have never been so many as these days, and there’s…
If you’re confused about all these acronyms, you’re not alone! Those interested in WebRTC and broadcasting have probably heard about WHIP already: WHEP and WHAP maybe not as much And if you’re even more confused about why I chose a…
SFU cascading has been a hot topic for quite some time. There’s different reasons why you may want to cascade an SFU implementation: you may want to scale a room so that multiple servers cooperate with each other to distrubute…
