    Abstract: An example method includes receiving, by the computing device, a first video stream from a first client device of a plurality of client devices, wherein the computing device is communicatively coupled to each client device of the plurality of client devices. The method further includes detecting a participant count associated with the first client device based on the first video stream from the first client device and based on the participant count associated with the first client device, adjusting the first video stream. The method further includes receiving a second video stream from a second client device of the plurality of client devices and adjusting at least one of video stream display size or video stream resolution of the second video stream. The method further includes sending the adjusted first video stream and the adjusted second video stream to at least one client device of the plurality of client devices.

    Abstract: Implementations generally relate to indicating sound quality during a conference, thereby providing real-time feedback to those generating audio intentionally or unintentionally. In some implementations, a method includes detecting an audio signal during a conference. The method further includes determining one or more sound types in the audio signal based on one or more respective characteristic criteria. The method further includes providing an indicator based on the one or more sounds types.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented technique can include receiving, at a server from an inviter computing device associated with an inviter user, a request to have a communication session with a plurality of invitee users at a scheduled time. The technique can include determining a time zone of each invitee user, and determining that a specific time zone of a specific invitee user differs by more than a predetermined amount from the time zone of the inviter user. The technique can include providing a time-shifted invitation to a specific invitee computing device associated with the specific invitee user, the time-shifted invitation being for a delayed time that is appropriate for the specific invitee user. The technique can also include receiving an audio/video communication stream corresponding to the communication session beginning at the scheduled time, and providing the audio/video communication stream to the specific invitee computing device at the delayed time.

    Abstract: An example method includes receiving, by the computing device, a video stream from a first client device of a plurality of client devices, wherein the computing device is communicatively coupled to each client device of the plurality of client devices. The method further includes detecting, by the computing device, one or more conditions associated with the first client device and adjusting, by the computing device, the received video stream based at least in part on the detected one or more conditions. The method further includes sending, by the computing device, the adjusted video stream to at least a second client device of the plurality of client devices.
