A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 6464 Title: A Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) Header Extension for Client-to-Mixer Audio Level Indication Author: J. Lennox, Ed., E. Ivov, E. Marocco Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: December 2011 Mailbox: jonathan@vidyo.com, emcho@jitsi.org, enrico.marocco@telecomitalia.it Pages: 9 Characters: 18809 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-avtext-client-to-mixer-audio-level-06.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6464.txt This document defines a mechanism by which packets of Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) audio streams can indicate, in an RTP header extension, the audio level of the audio sample carried in the RTP packet. In large conferences, this can reduce the load on an audio mixer or other middlebox that wants to forward only a few of the loudest audio streams, without requiring it to decode and measure every stream that is received. [STANDARDS-TRACK] This document is a product of the Audio/Video Transport Extensions Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Internet Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
