Does > anyone care to quantify this? > If common codecs are not implemented in the browser this would mean transcoding will need to be performed on some sort of server-side media gateway. There are three distinct issues we need to take into account when dealing with transcoding. I would list them in what, at least from my point of view, is the order of importance: 1. If you need to do trancoding, you will need to implement a jitter buffer on the transcoding media gateway. ICE processing and SRTP en/decoding can be performed on out of order packets as they are received. You cannot transcode out of order audio. This means audio packets would need to be delayed by the jitter buffer size. In cases of good internet connection this means 40 ms jitter buffer delay. In cases of consumer internet in US (somebody sitting on a DSL connection at home behind a WiFi router) you are typically looking at 60-80 ms jitter buffer delay. If you are dealing with international internet connections jitter of 150 ms to 200 ms is not unheard of. This means an additional delay due to jitter buffering of 40 ms (best case) to 200 ms. This is in addition to any other delays that are already present on the audio path. Adding an extra 100 ms of delay can make audio conversions very awkward or unusable. On the other hand, if the gateway were performing just ICE and SRTP, it would introduce 1-2 ms of delay at most (In this case I am talking about a software based implementation running on generic server hardware. A dedicated DSP solution would probably be even faster). 2. Audio artifacts due to transcoding. Apart from usual audio degradation due to transcoding (OPUS transcoded to AMR would sound worse then OPUS or AMR), we would also deal with double packet loss concealment. Media gateway will conceal lost packets when transcoding. Client will conceal lost packet received from the gateway. This would actually sound worse then PLC performed in one place. 3. Scalability of the transcoding gateway. Gateway which just deals with ICE processing and SRTP en/decoding can handle from 2000 to 10000 concurrent call when running on a generic server CPU (different scalability is due to differences in CPU performance and presence of AES specific instructions). Gateway that would do G.722 to OPUS transcoding would most likely handle from 500 to 1000 concurrent calls. We are looking at 10x difference in performance. If we need to transcode AMR to OPUS the difference would be even higher. This translates in 10x difference in hardware, data center, power, and operations costs. _____________ Roman Shpount
