Description
Currently, the size of the video is 4:3 (or something similar). It's almost square, and not wide. With Skype, the video is wider: we can see more people in the room. I think it's something like 16:9 or 16:10
Is it possible to make the video wider?
Thanks!
(I'm using Firefox)

Research direction
Start by reviewing the related video-resolution issue #504 and investigating how the current video dimensions are selected in Firefox. Confirm whether a wider aspect ratio such as 16:9 is supported without breaking existing calls; done means the video displays wider and shows more of the room reliably.
