Can you add delay with WebRTC? I want to set up video-conferencing with a constant and consistent delay. For example, 4s each way. I'd want the client to buffer the video and audio so that if you say something the and the other person replies instantly on hearing it, then you hear their response exactly 4s after you spoke for the first time.

1If you had a 4s delay each way, then you would hear their response 8s after you spoke, not 4. – xdumaine Apr 18 '16 at 19:21

Buffering is possible in WebRTC - see Is buffering possible in WebRTC?. Unfortunately not to the level that you want.
It might be possible to do this as an effect with WebAudio, but then you won't have video.
