Video call layout reordering

cman131

Often times the video layouts are less than ideal. I would like to request two things:

1. The grid layout of private video calls allows us to drag and reorder the video feeds. We often play games this way and it would be incredibly helpful to order players' video feeds by turn order.

2. Allow the disabling of video feeds that don't have a video. Often times I'm trying to pay attention to someone's screen share or the feeds of a couple people, but the folks that don't have a camera or screenshare on take up space and are in the way. So it would be nice to locally disable a feed in my client.

    I agree: at the moment I get video slots blocked by

    • bots
    • people who are just spectating a roleplaying session
    • players without a webcam

    This behaviour lowers the video channel general experience.

    I was just looking for this exact feature which doesn't exist (yet).

     

    3. Add ability to pin specific windows to a specific area of the grid. 

     

    Example.  In OBS I have 4 source, each cropped to one of the 4 Videos of the discord grid.  When recording them within OBS, the OBS sources become disjointed when the grid layout dynamically changes it's' layout.  Sometimes only 2 or 3 people are in the video chat and now all the 4 OBS sources are useless. 

    Current work around it to create sources in OBS to accommodate all possible 2-4 video share layouts.
