Mediasoup Consumer Not Receiving Packets – Need Debugging Help

mediasoup libraries
1

I’m working on a Mediasoup-based video call setup and running into an issue where a consumer isn’t receiving packets from a producer.

Here’s my setup:

  • The producer is created successfully, and rtpParameters are sent to the consumer.
  • The consumer is created, and consumer.resume() is called.
  • consumer.on("transportclose", ...) and consumer.on("producerclose", ...) are set up.
  • No errors in logs, but the consumer never receives media.

Things I’ve checked:

  1. Producer Works: consumers in the mediaserver can recieve it.
  2. Transport Connectivity: Both producer and consumer transports are connected (dtlsState: "connected").
  3. RTP Parameters: Double-checked they match between producer and consumer.
  4. ICE & Network: No ICE disconnects or NAT issues in logs.

Would appreciate any debugging tips!

this are the stats of the producer transport.The out-bound and in-bound bytes are same which shouldn’t in a producer transport.

Please Can anyone tell me why this happens.And i cannot see any traffic in consumer transport.Anyone have any idea what im missing.

The issue is Fixed. Found out the problem is im creating a consumer using producer transport​:skull::clown_face:
