Hi, I'm trying to broadcast multiparty audio and video through youtube, using this stack: Browser (Chrome) -> Custom webapp using Verto -> mod_conference -> record to rtmp -> youtube live However, I'm getting poor audio quality on youtube in the live broadcast. Here's an example (this video is screen-capped from the live player, because youtube seems to clean up the recorded file after the fact. I've tested with multiple computers/browsers that this is how it sounds to everyone during the live broadcast.): https://youtu.be/bO8t78YXxjc That is using the "Low Latency" setting in youtube. The conference.conf.xml "interval" parameter seems to also have an effect; I have it set to 10 here as that seemed to get fewer pops than the default 20. Using youtube's "Ultra-low latency" setting, things are even worse: https://youtu.be/ShuitSWYy5A The "Normal latency" setting is better, but still has more frequent popping than I'd like: https://youtu.be/cyZQTWDctEs The same configuration when pointed at UStream endpoint instead of YouTube produces fine audio quality (the following example is screencapped from a live ustream player then uploaded to youtube): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ng9boh_5_ik I've been trying to tweak all of the audio parameters I can find to discern some magic combination that makes youtube happy -- but I haven't been able to find something that gets rid of the popping. The fact that UStream likes the audio just fine tells me that there's some incompatibility between freeswitch's stream and youtube, and not just brokenness on the webrtc or mux setup. I've tried 48kHZ, 44.1kHz, and lower; stereo and mono; various interval settings; and a lot of other parameters that appear to be unrelated (does rtmp.conf.xml get involved in recording a conference at all, or is that just for incoming rtmp calls?). Any ideas on what I might need to change to make freeswitch-to-youtube live audio smooth? The following is my conference.conf.xml in its entirety.
