Usually our low bandwidth users are simultaneously confined to using unicast. Making sure the bridge doesn't send streams (unless requested) will be critical when using unicast.

We have been looking at ways to minimize bandwidth usage where needed and this would be excellent.

The idea here being that high downlink bandwidth participants will be able to see everyone who is participating. It's not enough to just not display the video for slow downers, the bridge needs to be told not to even send the stream at all. It's enough for them to be seen and for them to have two way audio (highly compressed - i.e. GSM). Is there a current version of vic that will fill the need?
