Switching publishers on a stream

[jonathan-k4]

Question

In my tests, it seems that when I switch publishers, all the clients are dropped:

• I have a webrtc client connected to /mystream
• I start an ffmpeg player rtsp streaming some "hold music" to /mystream
• When a person is available, a webrtc publisher connects

When the second publisher connects, ffmpeg is disconnected, which I expect. However, I wasn't expecting the webrtc client consuming the stream to lose its connection and have to reconnect / renegotiate.

Is there a smooth way to switch between publishers?

Thanks - great project, would love to use it if I can work this out.
