Tell us about your request

We would like to highlight ActiveSpeaker on the VideoTileGrid.
Instead of expanding the ActiveSpeaker in the layout, we want to highlight only the VideoTileGrid of the ActiveSpeaker by changing the color around the Tile, etc. By doing so, we want to visually identify who is speaking now.

Is there such an Option? If not, please consider adding such a feature in the future.

What do you want us to build?

we are already doing this by using useActiveSpeakersState() hook, although native functionality in Video Grid would be more useful I guess
