Abstract
Techniques for intelligent coalescing of media streams are described. A coalesce engine receives multiple media streams, such as audio or video streams, that are misaligned. The coalesce engine can analyze the media streams by comparing representations of elements of the media streams to detect the misalignment. The coalesce engine may determine an offset amount representing the misalignment, and if the offset amount meets or exceeds a threshold the coalesce engine can work to eliminate the misalignment by introducing one or more artificial delays before sending elements of ones of the media streams that are 'ahead' of others of the streams. The coalese engine can additionally or alternatively send feedback to sources of the media streams, causing the source(s) to attempt to mitigate the misalignment.
