Hello,
Probably it's fair to say we get our share of video conferencing these days due to
worldwide circumstances.
By coincidence (or maybe not) I came across 2 video APIs for my daytime job.
The first one is a commercial one:
http://tokbox.com
(acquired by Vonage)
The second one is an open source one:
https://jitsi.org/
which you can use for free on
https://meet.jit.si/
I've converted the APIs of both services, and entered them in the pas2js
SVN. Both APIs come with a simple demo, which is online on:
https://www.freepascal.org/~michael/pas2js-demos/opentok/
https://www.freepascal.org/~michael/pas2js-demos/jitsimeet/
For opentok, you'll need an account.
The free trial account works with the demo.
I have used the jitsi meet API for a commercial application, and it works
very well. Setting up a server of your own is a matter of minutes
(if you're on linux). and the load is quite low.
Enjoy !
Michael.
