Channe with have more that 17 person with host role

[albusphan]

Describe the bug

Hi agora team, I read on the document that the maximum host is 17, is there any problem if more than 17 joins, what agora do on under the hooks for that case. And I also use the capture on the agora cloud. is there any problem when more than 17 joins ?

Platform and Browser: Chrome

SDK Version: 4.0.1

If there are more than 17 publishers in the channel, the subscriber will only receive 17 streams randomly.

[albusphan]

Thank you @disoul , and how about the capture function on the agora cloud, it will capture all the publishers or random 17?

[disoul]

Sorry, I don't know the details about cloud recording, I suggest that you can submit a ticket in the Agora Support (https://agora-ticket.agora.io/)

Thank you for quick response @disoul

hi @disoul, so is there any use case that I can subscribe to all the audio track if more than 17 So sorry for asking a lot of questions.

You can add clients to different channels for more than 17 publishers, and create multiple clients on the receiving side to join multiple channels at the same time to subscribe to all publishers. The user management can be done on your own server.

For example: Publisher 1 -> Client 1 -> publish to Channel A Publisher 2 -> Client 2 -> publish to Channel A Publisher 3 -> Client 3 -> publish to Channel A Publisher 4 -> Client 4 -> publish to Channel B Publisher 5 -> Client 5 -> publish to Channel B Publisher 6 -> Client 6 -> publish to Channel B

Receiver 1 -> Client 7 -> join Channel A -> receive Publisher 1, 2, 3 -> Client 8 -> join Channel B -> receive Publisher 4, 5, 6

@disoul one extended question - how does the audio call work then ? The docs say it is 10k people at once ? So there are 10k hosts at once ? @HAHAHA44

hi @HAHAHA44, I tried to create multiple clients and join multiple channels in a single browser tab, but it always returns error UID conflict error. Is there any code sample for the solution that you mention above. Thank you Edited: I see sth in the log about the renewSession. was think because of that renewSession 927AC26D8288FB7075A5A7C374A29617 => ACE2688E7FF7F901965B3ECC2E117FFC

@albusphan were you able to get this working? I have this use case as well

[HAHAHA44]

Thanks for feedback, this is a bug of SDK. We will fix it. You can create multiple clients and join multiple channels with different uid in a single browser tab to workaround it. There is no such problem in different tab pages.

Thank you @HAHAHA44 FYI @vvedharaju , I have successfully increased the max number of participants to 51 by using 3 different channels.

[vvedharaju]

@albusphan have you ben able to support 51 participants without a significant performance impact? And are there any specific optimizations you are making to solve for this use case?

[albusphan]

hi @vvedharaju, of course, performance will be affected. but on our product, we only show max 17 videos at a time.
