[Freeswitch-users] Fwd: RTCP in passthrough mode

[Michael Jerris]

passthrough mode in video conference is basically useless. It's left over
from before we had any real video support. It does nothing at all with
rtcp. There is no plans to do anything useful with this feature other than
to possibly remove it in the future.
