RE: On audio quality requirements for IETF meetings

Hi

Sorry for the delay. I don’t believe that meetecho+headset is a good replacement for in-room audio. It can be a useful complement  if the e2e delay (mouth to ear) can be squeezed down to some 40ms.

If all attendees, local and remote, dialled in to Meetecho with a headset, would we even need in-room audio?

 

No, but then you'd have the O(n^2) problem of debugging everybody's meetecho feed.   Also, the latency can make following difficult when you are in the room with the person who is speaking.
