Mixed video file

[garurumonZ]

Hello guys,
is it possible to somehow put something like a picture in the final mixed file so when participant turn off his camera during the conference it's not just a black square on his spot in that video file?

Hello

If participant's streams were added using REST-API /mixer/add then it is possible to set an Avatar image.

Real-time stream mixer with MCU functions - Web Call Server 5.2 - EN - Flashphoner Documentation

docs.flashphoner.com

For other ways, i.e. for automatic adding via hash, i.e. test#mixer1 it is not currently supported.
We have raised a new ticket WCS-3937 for other ways.

Good day.
Since WCS build 5.2.1858 it is possible to set avatar pictures automatically by stream name, not using REST API. In this case avatar picture files should be placed to the folder

avatar_dir=/usr/local/FlashphonerWebCallServer/avatar

A file name should be equal to stream name. For example, the picture file stream1.png will be applied to the stream named stream1. If the stream was added to the mixer automatically, e.g. stream1#mixer1, the mixer name will not be used to get the picture, only the stream name before # character.
