In Google Summer of Code 2012 my work was connected with improvement of video conferences process in Apache OpenMeetings software. The work was divided into two parts. The first part was to create a network testing tool which will provide testing of most needed network parameters for OpenMeetings using. The second part was to improve the video pods of conferences by adding a new control - a volume slider - to adjust volume of audio streams and microphone in runtime.
I have finished the initial version of the testing tool. It is made as a Java servlet with OpenLaszlo client side and could be used even outside of the OpenMeetings. The tool provides testing of several parameters: ping, jitter size, port availability, download/upload speed. Results of testing are visualized with the set of indicators. A user could run tests a needed amount of times and also see the log of the application work. The volume slider implements a very useful feature. Users have different microphones and volumes of their audio streams are different. So, providing a way to adjust the volume of a particular stream is a great feature that makes the OpenMeetings software more handy to use.
