From 25d1742d614fd26e950a75dca0f9656eadd6b628 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thore Cimbal Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2026 12:00:00 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] fix: Add 720p simulcast middle layer for smoother video quality User reported visible artifacts/blockiness during calls. Root cause: without an explicit simulcast_layers config, the fork defaulted to only [180p, 360p] fallback layers below the 1440p top layer - any minor network hiccup caused a hard cliff straight to blocky 360p instead of a graceful step-down. Added a 720p middle rung. VP9 retry deferred: LiveKit uses SVC for vp9/av1 instead of classic simulcast, and the fork's buildPublishOptions() always builds simulcast-shaped layers regardless of codec - likely the real reason forcing vp9 broke calls entirely. Needs a code fix before retrying. --- apps/production/element-server-suite.yaml | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/apps/production/element-server-suite.yaml b/apps/production/element-server-suite.yaml index a25e455..d42bb6c 100755 --- a/apps/production/element-server-suite.yaml +++ b/apps/production/element-server-suite.yaml @@ -74,7 +74,7 @@ spec: image: registry: rohana.axion1337.de repository: sorb/threadnet-web - tag: v0.2.1-elementcall-noquotavp9 + tag: v0.2.2-elementcall-simulcast ingress: host: axion1337.chat
