BigBlueButton - web conferencing system for on-line learning
-
BBB as a service is now available for testing... DM me if you'd like to hook your Greenlights up to it.

@doodlemania2 where are the server instances located? I only have instances in germany. So no experience with other countries
If you need a nice default presentation which explains the BBB-UI go to Presentation_Slides -> BBB-default-slides_en.pdf https://cloud.ebbba.org/s/Q2i9FqZaPdjQKmM -
@luckow I have one in Southern California and another in Dallas, TX. Everything except presentations work (screen sharing, polls, chat, voice/video, presence, CC, etc all good). Will figure out presentations in a day or so.
DM me if you wanna give it a spin.

Everything except presentations work
Did you use ansible? I just fixed a permission issue with bbb-web and bbb-html5 which blocked presentation parsing.

@brutalbirdie nah, good ol docker compose

@jdaviescoates but its bad, really bad! - And Outdated! 2.3.0 < 2.3.10
I maintain the official Ansible role for BBB and stay in close contact to at least 25 Admins from universities in Germany.
They basically uniformly agreed that the Hetzner BBB app is unusable for any real work with BBB.The Ansible Role:

https://github.com/ebbba-org/ansible-role-bigbluebuttonWow that's awesome thanks for sharing this Ansible playbook.
I'm in the process of starting to learn Ansible myself as it is a great time saving tool for managing servers.
And now I've a great "major win" to start with. Pretty cool!
You think you can share some more?
Cheers!

@brutalbirdie Could yall include me too? I'm offering it (BBB) to a few folks as a small teeny service and it seems to be working okay/decent. About to add SIP support. Would love to learn more about how ya'll are approaching it.

@brutalbirdie they may have updated, that's an old screenshot, but many thanks for the heads up anyway. Are you aware of meet.coop ? I'm a member and think it'd be great to have you involved too!

How is it performing, did you try it?

I hope that's just a BBB interface, like Greenlight, otherwise, that's a LOT to cram into a Nextcloud. FWIW, my company offers BBB access for a small monthly fee. Available in US or EU
