@necrevistonnezr Thanks for the link.

That is correct current MiroTalk is p2p, the SFU variant will come with next Cloudron release.

@nebulon

I've been tracking MiroTalk's rise since Jitsi’s decline— given Jitsi's frequent crashes across various servers, wow what a decline. My focus is on the SFU version amidst its alternatives: P2P, C2C, and BRO within the MiroTalk Web Admin suite to test all of them.

1. What held back SFU's initial adoption on Cloudron? Despite P2P and SFU's apparent similarity, differences in security features, like meeting locks available in SFU but not P2P, and some other custom settings.

Is P2P's initial preference due to its simpler setup, and if so, what privacy and customization aspects are compromised by it being pure WebRTC. It can only do one and one then until SFU becomes fully viable?

[Kubernetes]

@aessen The reason is that for SFU some Port Range for Communication is requrired. This is currently not supported by the Cloudron Platform. AFAIK they are already working on this to support the SFU with one of the next Cloudron Releases.

[girish]

@aessen as @Kubernetes said, this was because of missing port range support. this is now supported in 7.7 which is already out (as unstable).

[girish]

https://docs.cloudron.io/packaging/manifest/#tcpports has the docs for the port range support (via portCount field).

[nebulon]

The SFU app package is now released as unstable for testing. There is a config.js in /app/data which allows selective things to be configured. For now only those properties can be changed to avoid accidental user-error, but we can add more: https://git.cloudron.io/cloudron/mirotalksfu-app/-/blob/main/config.js?ref_type=heads#L19

[Kubernetes]

@nebulon I did a small test with three devices and two users (all in the same local network). During first install, I got an Task Error because the Port Range were already in use(?). However, when I gave it a second try it did work to install. The use of MiroTalk was very smooth without serios issues. I just had some trouble with configuring the Webcam for to high quality, which results in a drop of the session for the specific user.

Thanks a lot for your effort to migrate it to Cloudron!

[nebulon]

Do you have more info on that port range task issue?

[Kubernetes]

@nebulon Unfortunately I didn't copy the log entries, but I think it was related to that the port 40098 is already allocated by another application. I had the MiroTalk P2P installed before, after reading that you created an initial package, maybe there was some kind of conflict?

[nebulon]

strange though, it should have already thrown an error during install form submission, not during the app task.

[Kubernetes]

@nebulon Here, I found this in the Docker Logs:

It was Port 40098 - (will correct this in my previous post)

[nebulon]

That is correct, but it should have prevented you from selecting the ports in the first place. At least here I am not able to reproduce this.

[Kubernetes]

Here is another report in a dedicated thread. Let's move any discussions regarding this problem to that threat.

[aessen]

@girish and @nebulon I really want to thank you for once again, as you always do, taking the time to individually address concerns and providing insight and details as you do. I’ve will also begin some testing of the SFU version of MiroTalk in its unstable form. Keep it up!

[Benoit]

Hi @girish et @nebulon thanks for the mirotalk app ! I tried theses features https://docs.mirotalk.com/mirotalk-p2p/host-protection/#when-host_protected-is-enabled but it seems it doesn't work : i can authenticate my adminb account and create a room but invited participants can't join without authentication, the HOST_USER_AUTH=false parameter doesn't change this. is it normal ? Thanks again !

I have the same problem. Both with the p2p and the SFU version.

I have host protected: true and user_auth: false. To create a room I login with a user as a host and then participants cannot access the room, they are also prompted to login.

I created a separate thread for this issue.
