Description
We would like to do conferences with 20 to 50 participants, without the need of fast internet connections even when there is needed a fast server.
A lot of participants in our region have less than 16 mbit download rate at home and cant join a lot of conferences.
Its not possible for them to get faster internet, because of the infrastructure.
Pexip can mix all participant streams to one 1,6 Mbit stream in good quality, regeardless the number of incoming streams.
A mixing mcu in nextcloud talk would be nice to give participants with low bandwith the chance to join larger meetings.
