Subject: [Galene] Experimental outbound activity detection
Date: Sun, 8 Nov 2026 14:25:30 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <57ecf313-c7dd-425f-8a7f-bfdcb890737b@dietrich.cx> (raw)
Hello,
I was trying to understand what's missing for outbound activity
detection (aka "Is this thing on?"), and learned that there is a
"totalAudioEnergy" property for outgoing WebRTC streams as well, but
it's not yet implemented in Firefox:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/RTCAudioSourceStats/totalAudioEnergy
It does seem to work in Chromium, using largely the existing code.
Here's an experimental branch, please let me know what you think:
https://github.com/jech/galene/compare/master...alxndr42:galene:outbound-activity
There is ongoing work around RTCAudioSourceStats in Firefox, but it's
not clear to me if and when "totalAudioEnergy" might appear:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1728364
So right now the code detects no activity in Firefox, but "should" start
to work if they eventually implement the missing parts.
Kind regards,
Alexander
