PROFILE

Roxanne Skelly

Roxie contributed to the secondlife/viewer repository by engineering robust improvements to voice communication and audio device handling over a six-month period. She refactored WebRTC audio muting and device management logic in C++ to eliminate echo, synchronize UI and backend mute states, and stabilize cross-platform audio pipelines. Roxie addressed complex issues such as ICE renegotiation failures, device reconnection crashes on macOS, and playback compatibility across diverse hardware by implementing timer-driven WASAPI playout with 192kHz support. Her work in C++ and Python focused on reliability, cross-platform support, and high-fidelity audio, resulting in fewer user-reported issues and a more stable voice experience.

February 2026: WebRTC audio improvements in secondlife/viewer focused on reliability and fidelity across diverse hardware. Implemented timer-driven WASAPI playout with 192kHz support, improving cross-device compatibility and resilience. Extended end-to-end audio pipeline with recording path updates to align playback/recording behavior. Result: fewer audio issues, improved user experience for voice and media, and a foundation for higher-fidelity audio on consumers and professionals.

Dec 1, 2025

Month: 2025-12 — Delivered significant improvements to voice communication reliability in the secondlife/viewer repo. Addressed reconnect failures and dropouts related to ICE renegotiation and voice server restarts; ensured mute state is correctly applied across p2p/adhoc/group calls; fixed PTT behavior after reconnection. Result: more stable voice calls, fewer dropouts, and improved user experience. Demonstrated skills in WebRTC/ICE handling, call-state management, and integration with the WebRTC upgrade.

Month 2025-10: Stability and reliability improvements for macOS audio devices. Implemented a crash fix for Mac Audio Device Reconnection by deploying new audio devices only when the device ID changes, eliminating unnecessary restarts of playout and recording and improving overall macOS audio reliability.

August 2025 monthly focus: Audio muting stability for WebRTC regions and P2P calls in secondlife/viewer. Delivered a unified muting refactor to eliminate echo during region transitions and to ensure connections are established only with regions that explicitly support WebRTC voice. Resolved UI vs actual audio mute discrepancies for non-spatial/P2P audio by aligning mMuted state with UI. This work improved call quality, reduced user-reported audio issues, and reinforced cross-region voice reliability.
