Re: [webrtc-pc] When exactly is an SSRC RTCRtpContributingSource object updated?

> Another puzzling question is what happens if we have both simulcast and CSRC

I've seen a number of applications that have implemented Opus forwarding instead of mixing.  Typically this is supported by forwarding up to N streams, each of which goes to its own receiver, with mixing in the browser.  

In this scenario (which is *not* simulcast), the packets may arrive with CSRCs, representing the sources that contributed to the packet (usually only one), with the SSRC being one of the N allocated by the SFU.  Since there is no mixing, there will likely be no mixer-client extension, yet there would be a (single) CSRC and it would be useful to have the audiolevel corresponding to the SSRC, since this would be used to show the level originating from the CSRC.
