How to make a localparticipant unsubscribe to a track ?

Thanks for reaching out, l. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.
To make a local participant unsubscribe from a track published by a remote participant, you can use the
unsubscribe
method of the remote publication class. Here’s what happens during the process: 1. The method checks if the track is currently subscribed. 2. If subscribed, it sends an update to unsubscribe. 3. If a track exists, it emits the
TrackUnsubscribedEvent
to both the participant’s events and the room’s events. 4. Finally, it updates the track to null. Make sure to listen to the
TrackUnsubscribedEvent
and handle any necessary cleanup accordingly. Let me know if you need further assistance! Sources: TrackUnsubscribedEvent class - livekit_client library - Dart API | unsubscribe method - RemoteTrackPublication class - livekit_client library ... | participant(_:didUnsubscribeTrack:) | Documentation

Can you give a code example for javascript ?

Here is a JavaScript code example to unsubscribe a local participant from a track:
Copy code
// Assuming you have a reference to the publication you want to unsubscribe from
publication.setSubscribed(false);
When you call
setSubscribed(false)
on the track publication, it unsubscribes the local participant from the track. Additionally, a
TrackUnsubscribedEvent
will be emitted, which you can listen for on both the Room and RemoteParticipant objects. Let me know if you need further clarification or additional examples! Sources: Subscribing to tracks | LiveKit Docs | TrackUnsubscribedEvent class - livekit_client library - Dart API
