Attendee doesn't republish local video or see other attendee video after network change when server side network adaptation enabled about amazon-chime-sdk-js

Hello, thank you for the report. This sounds like something I also ran into and fixed in #2878. I will still try to double check using the reproduction steps here.

Unfortunately I don't know if there's any way to mitigate this without a release or fork (though at least we have started a monthly cadence of releases).

On an unrelated note, may I ask why simulcast (or VP9 SVC) is being avoided? It is quite beneficial with network adaptation, as it allows for quicker responses (to avoid impacting audio), without needing to fully pause video.

We are in the process of implementing Chime and were trying to implement MVP and weren't sure that we need simulcast. Also, as of now, all of our use cases involve 2 participants.

I have verified the fix on reconnection. We usually put up a github on the first thursday of each month to confirm when the next release will be.

This is already closed, but I did verify that it is fixed!
