Hi group,
I'd like your thoughts on how we can build our use case currently
identified as UC1 (Video Chat).
http://www.w3.org/2011/audio/wiki/Use_Cases_and_Requirements#UC_1:_Video_Chat
We can take as a basis the text used in WEBRTC's own use cases and
requirements document:
[[
Two or more users have loaded a video communication web application
into their browsers, provided by the same service provider, and
logged into the service it provides. The web service publishes
information about user login status by pushing updates to the web
application in the browsers. When one online user selects a peer
online user, a 1-1 video communication session between the browsers
of the two peers is initiated. The invited user might accept or
reject the session.
During session establishment a self-view is displayed, and once the
session has been established the video sent from the remote peer is
displayed in addition to the self-view. During the session, each
user can select to remove and re-insert the self-view as often as
desired. Each user can also change the sizes of his/her two video
displays during the session. Each user can also pause sending of
media (audio, video, or both) and mute incoming media

For the sake of simplicity, parts of that prose can be omitted (e.g how
the invited user might accept or reject the session). I was wondering,
however, what we may want to add to it. For example:
* Each user could have access to an interface to make each of the other
participants' sound more/less loud.
* The service could offer user-triggered settings (EQ, filtering) for
voice enhancement
* The service could offer an option to distort each voice for fun, or to
protect one participant's privacy (pitch, speed)
* The service could offer an option to slow down / speed up one of the
participant's voice.
Any of these feel reasonably in scope for our work? Anything else? We
don't have to decide yet how the API(s) would make these possible, but
we need to decide early one whether it should be a success criteria to
make them possible at all.
Thanks,
Olivier
