THE PANEL'S ANSWER
John

The toolbar shows uptime, frame drops, format, bit rate for stream and record, and canvas size; it displays diagnostic telemetry for the app's performance.

Machine-transcribed, so it may contain errors. Every timestamp opens the episode at that second.

4:41And then that's what led me to like, let me see what I can do and see what I can kind of frame out and then start making actual function underneath the UI I designed. It's amazing. I'm having a hard time seeing the text that's in the buttons in the lower, the bottom there in the toolbar, but is there, is that like a performance meter of some kind? Yeah, you can

5:02You can see like how long the app's been up. So this has been running for 88 minutes. I actually, this is running within this meeting. So I joined it an hour and a half ago. You can see if there's any frame drops, there's been 54 this entire time it's been up for 88 minutes. You can see what the format and bit rate is for the stream,

5:22the record, and then what your program, like my canvas size is set to 1080p60. and do you have individual telemetry for the participants that are joining like can you see their frame rate that they and the resolution that they've that they're sending you when they've joined yeah so um on the sources screen um there is um looks like it's not working right now so
