I know the Jitsi project rejected using p2p webrtc for more than 2 participants a while back due to exploding upload bandwidth requirements at the clients, but I wonder if this video-game style interface would work OK with a single low bandwidth video stream of each participant (instead of switchable low/med/hi res ones), and maybe support 5 or 6 users over P2P instead of needing that server-side bandwidth?

Well, I built exactly that thing at cyberparty.io!

The video is 320x240 and one stream is about 600 kbit/s and audio is another 30 kbit/s.

So yeah, that works fine for a few users that have maybe 5 mbit/s upstream.
