Message Excerpt

Hi Yu You, That's an interesting problem which I also encountered while developing the Meet

Plain-Text Body

Hi Yu You, That's an interesting problem which I also encountered while developing the Meet application https://github.com/moqtail/moqtail/tree/main/apps/meet within MOQtail. But instead of a shared chat track, I used a shared signalling track to distribute messages such as join, welcome, etc. among the participants. Using milliseconds didn't help, sometimes the group IDs collided (when a join message is received by the participants in the room, they send a join message at the same time which results in group ID collision). So, I ended up using a random base group ID to start the group ID counter for each participant, which solved my problem. But this is an anti-pattern because you don't get monotonically increasing group IDs.

Best,

Zafer
