Paul,
No light, but I can confirm that I could only see my own video when I
used your bridge a few minutes ago, despite several other streams
being vislble in multicast mode.

Although I've seen this "BRIDGESERVER = ...." mentioned in some
recent documentation, I've never used it on the APAG venue server/
bridge. Still, I doubt its inclusion would cause your problem.

Is the behaviour any different when you explicitly bridge all/any
rooms individually, rather than the "whole server" mode? e.g.
# Arctic Circle venue at ARSC test venue server
[https://agserver.arsc.edu:8000/Venues/
00000104a5a05af8007f00000000000150b]
type = Venue
What version of the toolkit?
