I'm using Jitsi Meet (The public service hosted at https://meet.jit.si/) for two years now and in my experience it doesn't work reliably with Firefox. I even think as soon as one of the conference members uses Firefox, sooner or later the conference will experience some audio or video issues. Consequently we can't use Jitsi Meet well for a wider/external audience because we can't demand them to use Chrome.

The actual issues experienced range from voice and video drop outs, to connectivity issues (poor connectivity or connection lost). As soon as the Firefox members leaves, the issues stop appearing. Because these issues are so blur I can't provide any details at the moment. Therefore I have the general question, if you plan to support Firefox 100%? If I should provide more technical details about the issues, where can I find description how to gather those details?

Is your feature request related to a problem you are facing? Teacher wants to share screen with class Uses Apple Ipad Starts Jitsi in Browser App comes up, can not be avoided App does not allow to share screen Materials not visible to students

Describe the solution you'd like Enable screen sharing just as in browser

Describe alternatives you've considered Use desktop computer instead of ipad But is not portable and has other apps / entire workflow would have to be changed

Thanks for consideration.

If your camera is not working, please test it on https://test.webrtc.org and report your results here.

Update: macOS users, please try this:

• Open Activity Monitor
• Search for "VDCAssistant"
• Right click, force quit
• Does it work now?

Update 2:

We have deployed a new Jitsi Meet version (on meet.jit.si) which we think solves this problem. Please give it a try! In order to know you are running the new version note that new mute buttons have a new appearance:

Update 3:

I found an old webcam and could reproduce the problem! Any chance you can test the following? (SomeRandomRoomNameToTestTheCamera is a room name i just made up)

https://meet.jit.si/SomeRandomRoomNameToTestTheCamera#config.constraints.video.aspectRatio=1.33

Then try to select your camera.

Update 4:

The fix mentioned on update 3 is now deployed on meet.jit.si.

Hi, I'm trying to use jitsi-meet for android using a custom jitsi server. My problem is that with the meet.jit.si server the connection is ok, but with my custom server the connection is not ok. I see a black screen. the certificate is self signed and in android I imported it in the local keychain.

could you help me to understand the issue? Thank you very much

Hi again,

Just cloned the ios app and was able to compile and run ok. But when I click on "invite someone" in its new menu location, nothing happens. It used to work fine in the previous version when the button was on the display and not in the menu.

All I see in the xcode debug logs is:

2019-01-24 18:27:45.823077+0000 jitsi-meet[3494:1133586] [MC] Filtering mail sheet accounts for bundle ID: xxx.yyy.zzz, source account management: 1 2019-01-24 18:27:45.823574+0000 jitsi-meet[3494:1133586] [MC] Filtering mail sheet accounts for bundle ID: xxx.yyy.zzz, source account management: 2

Hope this report helps.

Cheers

Allow jitsi meet to run on a mobile browser based on a config parameter in the "interface_config.js".

This topic came up a couple of times in the mailing list and the current solution as suggested here is not ideal.

This feature is really useful for audio only requirements in apps that integrate with jitsi meet through the external api.

Note: Running jitsi meet in the browser of a device is useless where webrtc is not supported.

Thanks for making this, this is amazing! I would love to use this for the volunteer-led classes that a nonprofit I work for teaches and has had to transition to doing over video conferencing.

The one feature that would really make this functionally stand out for us among the closed-source competition would be the ability to have breakout rooms. So if a teacher is hosting a call of ten students, the teacher could group the students into smaller calls of 2-3 students to do smaller discussions or activities together, drop in on different smaller calls to see how they're doing, then bring them back in to the larger call.

Thanks again!

Hi I have a subdomain pointing to the ip of jitsi and I have followed the quick install, it was giving me an error about invalid SSL, I tried a few things and uninstalled and reinstalled jitsi meet, the error still remains, and now I have issues opening the camera, I have to remove permissions and re add every time I came to the page, but now also the video screen has disappeared from the display.

Any suggestions guys ?

TIA

This is just a support request.

Chromium works very well. Please support also other browsers such as Firefox in the future.

Thank you for your great work!

WCAG 2.1 AA Compliance / Accessibility

This PR is the followup to https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/pull/8423 @saghul @damencho

We managed to make jitsi-meet (web) fully WCAG 2.1 AA compliant. This has been tested and approved by two independent entities. One feedback I want to share with the community came from a person who relies on a screen-reader for his daily work. He was very excited that he was finally able to participate in video conferences at his workplace.

We would really appreciate if you could give this review some priority because it looks like there is currently a lot of work being done on UI elements and we already had a hard time keeping up with the master branch while doing our final code review 🙂

This is a rather large PR (sorry 😉) because we had to modify almost every element of jitsi-meet web. But don't be afraid there are a lot of similar changes like aria attributes, color contrasts or keypress handler. I will go into more detail regarding PTT and global keyboard shortcuts below to give you more insights what we did and why we did it. This should make your life easier reviewing all these changes. If there are still things we missed to explain please let us know in the comments.

Features

• Full keyboard access to all UI elements
• Better contrast for improved readability/visibility on some elements
• Descriptive aria attributes and labels for screen readers
• Highlighting of focused elements
• Unified wording / More descriptive labels
• A setting to disable keyboard shortcuts

Fixes

• No interference between input elements like buttons and PTT or other global keyboard shortcuts
• Hide Mute Audio/Video moderation features from toolbox overflow menu if user is not a moderator
• Re-integrated video mute button to toolbox overflow menu
• Auto-Hide of toolbox will now recognize focused elements and stay open until unfocused
• Auto-Hide of toolbox will now recognize when a user is hovering the remote-video-control menu
• Fixed all places where eslint-disable-next-line react/jsx-no-bind was used to avoid unnecessary rerender
• The SPACE key will now only unmute while pressed and you were muted before. The old behavior was to also activate mute on SPACE similar to the M key. If you take push-to-talk literally this was a wrong behavior and M should be the only shortcut to mute while SPACE will allow you to talk while holding SPACE when muted.
• Minor UI fixes like z-index, padding issues, missing headlines in dialogs, responsiveness or overflowing elements

Push-To-Talk (PTT) / Keyboard Shortcuts

We decided on an approach that allowed us to keep global shortcuts (like PTT) the jitsi community is used to while adding space bar support to UI elements like buttons and menus. This took some extra work because PTT and other shortcuts like numbers can interfere with the expected experience of screen-reader users and keyboard users in general.

1. We allow people to disable keyboard shortcuts entirely if features like PTT or number shortcuts are causing too much confusion when using a screen-reader for example. This is a new checkbox in the settings dialog. Keyboard shortcuts stay active by default though to make this a non-breaking change.
2. We prioritized the keyboard handling of keyboard-focused elements (like input, button, checkbox, ...) over global keyboard shortcuts. Which means when you intentionally focus a button using the tab key the function of the space bar will be to trigger the button. You are also now able to remove focus from an element by pressing ESC. This allows keyboard users to have the native web experience they are used to while also having great features like PTT.

Hi all,

I'm using a One by Wacom graphical tablet with a two button pen on a standard GNOME installation.

The following situation as appearing in the below video is reproducible as follows:

• Copy some text to your clipboard Ctrl+C
• Open Jitsi's whiteboard
• Select the pen drawer and start to draw
• During drawing, press the lower button and release it
• End the drawing by lifting the pen

This sequence of actions inserts the before copied text. It's been happening to me many, many times involuntarily.

Bildschirmaufzeichnung vom 2023-01-09, 13-39-14.webm

If Jitsi wishes to support pen buttons, it should in my opinion probably point at most one button to the eraser, but due to a lack of configurability and the many existing, different drawing tablets, that should be it for the sake of usability.

Is your feature request related to a problem you are facing? Yes, my team can't enable hermes as JS engine in our React Native application due to Jitsi SDK limitations. Jitsi adopted hermes in version 2.6.0 and left it again in version 2.10.0, since then is not possible to support Hermes if Jitsi SDK is used.

Describe the solution you'd like I'd like Jitsi Meet SDK to use Hermes as JS engine. Hermes is now the default engine for all React Native apps (due to improvements) starting at React Native 0.70.0, this fact is even more important now that new RN architecture in near .

Describe alternatives you've considered None.

I am sure that Jitsi's team is making his best effort but I know this topic has been discussed in the past. I'd like to know if there is an estimated ETA for this change.

Thanks.

Description:

#config.disableDeepLinking=True option not working when passed in URL

Sample URL : https://meet.jit.si/jitsi#config.disableDeepLinking=True

Expected behaviour:

Meeting should be started directly without showing Jitsi Meet App options

Actual behaviour:

Native Option screen is displayed

Description:

My friend & I were trying the local recording feature on https://meet.jit.si (which, by the way, is very cool!): at the beginning of our conversation, he hit "record." By the end (about 90 minutes later) he went to go stop the recording to ensure it was saved, and found instead of an ongoing recording he'd very quietly gotten a 1.07GB download about 20 minutes prior. On his end, he reported the "REC" indicator had gone away to match the end of the recording, but on my end I still saw it.

Steps to reproduce:

I haven't reproduced this myself, but the steps we followed were:

1. Start local recording with two people in a call
2. Record for long enough to exceed the size limit (this would probably be easier to do if the limit were artificially reduced by a lot)

Expected behavior:

When my peer hits the recording limit, my end of the meeting reflects that recording has stopped. Or, additionally, we have a much more significant notification that recording has ended (similar to the excellent "recording is on" notification).

Alternatively, if the recording had continued by "rolling over" to a new file, that would have also matched my expectations and what I saw in the UI.

Actual behavior:

No recording was ongoing, but I still saw the "REC" indicator at the top of the screen.

Client information:

• Browser / app version: Chrome 108.0.5359.124
• Operating System: macOS
