Frequently Asked Questions

Is this for browser rooms or passive streaming?
It starts with browser-based realtime rooms, but those rooms can also be connected to viewer playback surfaces when the workflow includes passive watching.
Can the same room support webinar-style access?
Yes. A common production pattern is to keep a smaller set of active participants and expose a separate viewer experience for the broader audience.
Can I record sessions?
Yes. Recording is a natural companion workflow when calls or webinars need to be preserved, audited, or replayed later.
Can I expose a viewer-only surface?
Yes. That is often the right approach for webinars, monitoring, or any scenario where not everyone should be an active room participant.
Do participants need to install anything?
The intended model is browser-first participation so the join flow stays lightweight for operators, speakers, and guests.
Where should I start in the docs?
Start with Video calls, then use Web players for viewer-facing surfaces and Recordings when sessions need archives or replay.
Is Callaba video conferencing suitable for production monitoring?
Yes! You can organize real-time monitoring using a simple web browser.
