hidden
doesn't hide other participants.. it makes the current participant invisible to others.

@dry-elephant-14928 sorry. i meant that. i want to enter room hidden. that other participants can't see me. I changed token option to
hidden: true
but still other participants can see me. They can't see my video but can see my tile and my name. Only when i change
canPublish
and
canPublishData
to
false
other participants can't see me. But after several seconds I get this error message
Error: publication of local track timed out, no response from server
What am I doing wrong?
d
it sounds like you are publishing tracks as the hidden participant? if you do, then that participant will become visible to others.

A track must belong to somebody. Since all published tracks are visible to others. so would the participant that published it.
I'm curious what your use case is? Are you building an app where end users would be seeing the
VideoConference
prefab but should not publish themselves?
f
@dry-elephant-14928 yes, if user chose not to show himself to others. But when is
hidden: true
and
canPublish: false
,
canPublishData: false
I got error message. How can I ged rid off it?
d
you'd want to ensure your
<LiveKitRoom
isn't publishing anything.. i.e.:
audio={false}
video={false}
