Video SDK multiple screan sharing simultaneously

Video SDK Web
1

Hello, I am diving into the documentation but stuck in one topic - is it possible to have multiple screen sharing at the same time with Video SDK? I saw, that there is a possibility, but starting screen share stops receiving other screen shared content. Is it possible to have screen shared and see what other participants are sharing?

as for reference:

startShareScreen

  • startShareScreen(canvas: HTMLVideoElement | HTMLCanvasElement, options?: [ScreenShareOption]

  • Starts screen share.

    • Check the share privilege before starting screen share.
    • If you start screen share, you will stop receiving others’ shared content.
    • Users with legacy Chrome browsers need to install a chrome extension before starting screen share. Check the promise return value.

Parameters

  • canvas: HTMLVideoElement | HTMLCanvasElement

Required. The canvas which renders the screen share content.

Hey @Piotr

Thanks for your feedback.

Is it possible to have screen shared and see what other participants are sharing?

We are currently working on this feature, and it will be available in a future release. Please stay tuned for updates.
