Great read!
I am curious then why the Linux client doesn't supports this, if all it takes is to send out our webcam stream data to be processed server-side?
P.S.
What happens when they do e2ee on the webcam stream?
- angry_octet 6y agoWhy use expensive server side processing when you can do it for free on the client? Doing it on the client could theoretically save bandwidth, if the background was a changing scene. Obviously Zoom isn't end to end encrypted, it's client-server encrypted.
- asveikau 6y agoI think server side processing is really not a good idea for this. Zoom is really seeing a lot of use right now. It would not be sustainable for them to not take advantage of all the computing power of the clients.
- manbash 6y agoI am thinking the same now. The OP solution requires a server to do the the processing, but I am not sure this is the case for the Zoom client. The Zoom client also requires minimal hardware requirements from the processor iirc.
