Hi All,

Very interesting discussion.

What I had in mind is what Peter described below, but you guys came up with very interesting new ideas that can be used to address this scenario.
The scenario is technically an interesting and challenging one, but I tend to agree with Paul that it is not really a use case that will likely be used and maybe we should spend our time addressing other more likely to be used uses case.

Regards,
 Rifaat

I suspect asymmetric rtp *won't* work a lot of the time, for many
reasons, whether we think they are reasonable or not.

Maybe this is just an unreasonable use case. I can't really imagine
wanting to do this. If I have a handset, or headset, with a mic, it
probably has a "speaker" too, and it would seem weird using the mic and
not its speaker too. And when they are separate there is likely to be
problems with echos.

        Thanks,
        Paul
