Reduced Volume while talking

mediasoup libraries
1

Hello,
Im currently working on a voice conference application using mediasoup v3, based on the v3 demo app.
While testing i noticed the other participants getting reduced in volume when i was talking.
As i couldnt find anything regarding this within the docs i wanted to ask here if there is a specific setting in the mediasoup api to disable this or if this may be caused by something other than mediasoup itself.

No. mediasoup is a SFU, it does not modify packets. What you see is the echo cancellation in your browser.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Echo cancellation was the keyword i needed :smiley:

In case anyone in the future encounters the same question:
It can be disabled when in the getUserMedia function:

      const stream = await navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia({
        audio: { echoCancellation: false }
      });
