reconnecting to the meeting randomly

[avatar1024]

@MiroTalk said in reconnecting to the meeting randomly:

I’ve opened a thread here to discuss best strategies for handling unstable connections in mediasoup (built-in MiroTalk SFU server).

Really interesting thread, and making those changes for network interruptions might well work and do the trick for what we've experienced here (preventing the browser to close transport etc.).

I would just like to point out that in my case:

• There does not seem to be any network interruptions when the meeting connection drops. Everything else runs just fine, my wifi stays up and running, pages are loading, downloads are happening, etc.
• The connection to the meeting does already restart automatically, although I don't stay in the room. I am kicked out but I rejoin automatically (I don't need to manually refresh the page).

Things seems to have gone better for a while. But since the past couple of days it's gone really bad again. It feels like it is something on my end given other participants do not have those constant disconnections. Yet my internet seems very stable and for example with Jitsi or Teams (🤮) it's working totally fine and I have no disconnections...

I can't see anything in particular in the logs but happy to share the full log with @MiroTalk if useful.

I tried both with chromium and firefox and on two different servers (both cloudron with fresh install of mirotalk sfu)

I have created a bug report: https://github.com/miroslavpejic85/mirotalksfu/issues/200

@mirotalk-57bab571 made improvements to the logic but unfortunately the issue is still present for me with disconnection every few minutes. I was able to capture logs from the MiroTalk app and from the browser console when a disconnection happen. See there: https://github.com/miroslavpejic85/mirotalksfu/issues/200#issuecomment-2804775013

In fact I have noticed the issue happen even if no one else is the meeting, so if I leave a meeting running with only me in it, it disconnects every few minutes (though just to be clear, sometimes it holds fine too, but more often than not, I get those disconnections).

@MiroTalk, or anyone else, any clues?

What happens in a different browser?

[avatar1024]

@robi the same thing happened on both chrome-based (ungoogled chromium) and Firefox.

@avatar1024 did you try a session with all plugins disabled, just to make sure there's no interference?

[avatar1024]

@robi Thank you for your help. I haven't enabled any specific plugins, it's on a fresh install with the default config file.

@avatar1024 I think @robi is referring to browser plugins

Ungoogled chromium has no plugins whatsoever installed (in fact it's rather complicated to install anything on it )
