If you want low-level video routing functionality without the added layer of room-like logic, i.e. something that handles WebRTC and then tells you "now, here is your incoming video flow, do whatever you want with it", you might want to check out Kurento.

However our WebRTC stack has the minimum of congestion control features (plain REMB, no simulcast), and it doesn't implement SVC or newer toys like insertable streams, nor does it completely abstract you from the grunt work that WebRTC leaves up to the user (like signaling, setting up a TURN server, or having a minimum of understanding about ICE in order to troubleshoot when problems arise).

Yeah: the whole reason I want to use someone's off the shelf solution is because I want to have all the new hard stuff like SVC and insertable streams both done for me and maintained by someone other than me ;P.
