Been hacking on this project using 100ms.live video rooms with two people. And in order to test I've been using two browsers and just real live video of myself on both sides. There's an echo. And boy am I sick of looking at myself doing this lol.So I wrote a script that launches a headless Chrome instance that joins a 100ms video room as a "bot user", streams a provided media file (video + audio) as if it were a real webcam/microphone. It uses ffmpeg + ffprobe to scale the video to a max dimension, normalize FPS, and convert to:.y4m (video for Chrome fake camera).wav (audio for fake mic)You can see a test 45 min podcast with these bots on our staging server:https://staging-fe.taout.tv/view-p

As a business in show hn launch, Using bots to connect to 100ms.live video room for testing is listed here with the public details available about it.

It is recorded at the Show HN launch stage.
