setActiveSpeakerMode(enabled) Prebuilt Custom In Active Speaker mode, the currently speaking participant is displayed prominently while others appear smaller. This is a local-only change — it does not affect other participants’ views. Has no effect if called before join(). To specify the initial mode when joining, set the activeSpeakerMode call property.
Active Speaker mode only exists in Daily Prebuilt. In custom call object builds, listen to active-speaker-change events to drive your own active speaker UI.
