Abstract: In an embodiment, a computing system can include one or more processors and one or more non-transitory computer-readable media that store instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the computing system to perform operations. The operations can include: receiving an internal encoder state of an encoder running on a first computing device being used to participate in a video conference currently in progress; receiving data indicative of a second computing device being used to join the video conference; compressing, based at least in part on receipt of the data, the internal encoder state to generate a compressed internal encoder state of the encoder; and/or transmitting the compressed internal encoder state to the second computing device to synchronize the internal encoder state of the encoder running on the first computing device with an internal decoder state of a decoder running on the second computing device.
