A "freeze" in a random video chat occurs when the media stream stops but the session remains technically active. This is often the result of a "timeout" in the WebRTC heartbeat. Whether you are in Tamil Chat or USA Chat, freezing is a clinical symptom of a network or hardware interruption.
If your computer or phone gets too hot during a 1-on-1 video call, the OS will automatically slow down the CPU to prevent damage. This causes the video encoder to stop, resulting in a frozen image. Ensure your device is well-ventilated.
If your network experiences a momentary "blip" (even for 1 second), the P2P connection may freeze. Our signaling servers in Coimbatore attempt to re-connect automatically, but often clicking "Next" is the only way to reset the media pipeline.
