Active Speaker video switching for audio-only participants

[Peter Cresswell]

Hello,

Is it possible to configure a multi-party video call to switch the visible video participant based on active-speaker (as per ActivePresence), BUT not switch the display for audio-only participants?

Our users would like to continue to see the last active video participant rather than fill the screen with empty background when an audio-participant is talking.

We are using vTPS and Conductor, and mostly adhoc conferences. but I'd be interested in hearing any other solutions that may fit...

UPDATE:
If anyone else would like this to change please vote here:

Thanks,

Hello Peter

The switching to the active speaker is by design and can't be disabled.
