Meet Kopano (unstable version) - a few questions & problems :)

[NCKNE]

Hello @fbartels,

I just installed Kopano Meet to give it a try and encountered the following error after installation on cloudron v5.1.4 with Kopano Meet version 2.1.0 (Package v1.2.1):

The app starts, but no login is possible (the login button on the Kopano Meet page does not do anything upon clicking).

On the client side, the following error comes up:

Any idea what could be the problem?

Hi @NCKNE,

thanks for your feedback. The immediate cause for your error is the 404 when getting the discovery document from the .well-known directory. Can you check if Konnect is running (the program that provides the document)? You can do so when opening a terminal inside of the app and then running supervisorctl status kopano-konnectd.

What I find especially weird is that you got a 404 (file not found), in case Konnect isn't running this should normally be a 503 (service unavailable). Which version of Cloudron are you on? Where is that machine running (behind dynamic dns)? How do you manage dns (could it be that meet.xxx.xx still points somewhere else)?

Edit: ah, this seems to be some general breakage with the latest version of Cloudron. https://forum.cloudron.io/post/7396 reports something similar and @girish said a new version is already rolling out.

[girish]

@fbartels Sorry, yes, my bad. In 5.1.4 I broke apps that serve up .well-known docs of their own

On a side note, we use Kopano meet for our weeklies and we haven't had any issues.

[NCKNE]

Thanks for the update @girish! The 5.1.5 update of cloudron fixes the error and Kopano Meet is working now.

[luckow]

Let us find out how many participants are possible with a Kopano Meet app on Cloudron (v5.15).

Invitation
When: Monday 20. April 21:00 (Europe/Berlin)
Where: https://meet.luckow.org/meet/r/join/group/public/cloudron-meetup

Please: use chromium/chrome & Headset

Specs: netcup vm, 6 CPU, 32 RAM, HDD

[fbartels]

@luckow thats a nice idea. I have created a reminder for myself.

We once had a call with around 30 participants, but that was not really stable and just a quick test.

We are currently working on a sfu for some customers, if there is interest we could do a comparing test afterwards with that kind of a setup.

[scooke]

@luckow I'll join in, thanks.

[stantropics]

@jdaviescoates Have you investigated further? I have also tried to a few meetings with 3 to 5 people with several problems. Sometimes people cannot connect at all, sometimes they are not getting any sound or their sound is not transmitted to other participants. Very hard to analyze ...

[jdaviescoates]

@stantropics no not had a chance (nor really sure how to), although I think I read somewhere that with full p2p WebRTC apps like Kopano Meet all users need to have enough bandwidth for all streams or something, is that right @fbartels?

Either way it seems most people have so far had a better experience than us... So I'm keen to try more. Will attempt to join the group call..

[girish]

@luckow I will join if my home internet starts working again.

@jdaviescoates said in Meet Kopano (unstable version) - a few questions & problems :

all users need to have enough bandwidth for all streams or something

Yes, with a peer to peer connection all users need to connect to each other participant. Connections in Meet are limited to max 1 Mbit per participant, if a user does not have sufficient bandwidth for that the browser will automatically reduce quality down to a level where video would be deactivated completely.

Some more usage questions are answered in https://kopano.com/blog/top-10-things-to-ask-about-kopano-meet/

is a nice explanation of the pros and cons of the three main typologies used for video conference: p2p / MCU / SFU

[avatar1024]

Also might be of interest:

An article which test a methodology to compare SFUs, and then test a few of them. Results probably do not reflect real case scenario though.

[scooke]

Sorry for not participating, had some connectivity issues here. How did the call go?

[msbt]

you didn't miss it, it's this evening

[scooke]

@msbt Ah, I had the already-converted time in my head, "9", and then misremembered it as 'am'. Phew.

[girish]

That went pretty well! Thanks for joining and @luckow for organizing.

[jdaviescoates]

@girish @luckow how many people did it get up to? I wanted to join but alas was having a nightmare of a children's bedtime instead!

[scooke]

@jdaviescoates Seven. One left their video off. We had three reconnections but those were momentary and the reconnection initially resulted in clearer video images each time.

[yusf]

How resource-intensive was the session? Was the beefy spec justified?
