[Nfd-dev] NdnCon bridge for NFD calls

[Burke, Jeff]

Hi Junxiao,

It's audio and video (stream of the confbridge machine's desktop) - so you do see screen broadcasts but can't participate in text chat.

Note also that because confbridge essentially mixes down all NdnCon participants to a single audio stream passed to Webex, participants on NdnCon will only hear each other if they retrieve each other's audio streams.   If you join the confbridge chat, the current build should default to retrieving the streams for each participant automatically. (Peter and Jiachen can be on-hand to assist during NFD calls if needed.)

Hi Jeff

Is this confbridge for audio only, or does it support text chat and screen sharing as well?
I saw the guide<https://github.com/remap/ndncon/wiki/How-to-bridge-ndncon-with-existing-conferencing-tools> about setting up a confbridge, but it doesn’t mention anything about text chat.

Yours, Junxiao

Dear nfd-dev,

Starting on Tuesday, Peter and Jiachen are going to attempt a bi-directional bridge between the nfd calls on BlueJeans and NdnCon.

If you are interested in trying to participate via NdnCon (I would not rely on this just yet), please follow the informal instructions below first, and then 1) fetch the remap/confbridge stream 2) publish your own stream 3) enter the confbridge chatroom during the call.

Please note that for now, for bidirectional participation (for others to hear you) you'll need to be manually added to the bridge by Jiachen after joining chat.   He or Peter will message you in NdnCon chat after that is done.

Please bear with any weirdness... we're doing these "bridging" tests so that stability / performance issues don't impact the business of the calls.

Thanks,
Jeff
