In one aspect, an apparatus may include at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage may include instructions executable by the at least one processor to compare a first number of bytes sent from a first device as part of a video conference to a second number of bytes received at a second device as part of the video conference, where the first and second number of bytes may both pertain to a same portion of the video conference. The instructions may also be executable to, responsive to the first number of bytes not matching the second number of bytes to within a threshold, take one or more actions to assist in mitigating future loss of bytes for the video conference.
