How to turn video on and off during a call

[rsnay]

Many video calling applications provide the functionality to toggle on/off your video being shown to the other call participant(s). Basically a mute button, but for video—you can still see the other party, but your video isn't being transmitted.

The Endpoint class provides a way to mute a call, but how should video be toggled on/off during a call (as opposed to just setting it with the videoCount variable at call setup)? Ideally this could be specific for each party, and not for the entire call (e.g. I can see the other party, even if they can't see me, or vice-versa).

Thanks!

Hey Guys, yes it is possible by sending re-invite with videoCount 0 or 1, but current JS bindings version doesn't support re-invites as I remember, currently I don't have time to work on it for free, let me know if you need commercial support on this feature.
