As @pauli writes: VCS is the Video Component System, Daily's developer toolkit that lets you build dynamic video compositions and multi-participant live streams. We provide VCS in our cloud-based media pipeline so you can access it easily for recording and live streaming via Daily's API. There's also an open-source web renderer package that lets you render with VCS directly in your web app --- this way, you can use any combination of client and server rendering that best fits your app's needs.

In this post, Pauli introduces two new overlay graphics options for richer dynamic visuals.

Great @pauli , that was some good enhancements and additions to VCS. I tried webFrame in the simulator. It is still not working. Any thoughts?

Hi @jekwempu! What errors are you seeing? (Is it like your earlier testing?) Thanks!

It just echos the URL. Try it in your simulator.

Thanks @jekwempu. We'll investigate and follow up! (Thanks for your patience as we're on a lighter schedule through New Year.)
