There has been a lot of confusion of how to enable RTX, FEC, and RED. Previously we were a little vague about it, relying on the codecs list to contain them like SDP does. But several people think that's unclear, and I agree. So, here's a proposal that makes the RTX, FEC, and RED payload types explicit without having RTX, FED, and RED listed as codecs, and without using codec parameters like "APT": dictionary RTCRtpCodecParameters { DOMString name; payloadtype payloadType; payloadtype rtxPayloadType; // ... }; dictionary RTCRtpFecParameters { payloadtype payloadType; payloadtype redPayloadType; // If RED is used, RTX refers to RED, not FEC payloadtype rtxPayloadType; // ... }; In case you're wondering why there are so many rtxPayloadTypes, it's because RTX requires a payload type for every other payload type that could be received. I hope this simplifies and clarifies matters.
