      Great to have Jitsi here, thank you @nebulon and @girish and those supporting the packaging.

      No issues with meeting session generally, except that Start recording does not work fully.
      First :

      This is not critical but is a nice to have.
      (I didn't get it working on my self-hosted VPS either)

      I didn't test stream to YouTube yet. Maybe later.

        @timconsidine yes, as far as I understand this requires the jibri component, which is not installed or configured within the app package yet.

          @timconsidine streaming does not work in this package.

          By the way: You can use PeerTube on Cloudron as a streaming endpoint. Use a URL like:

          rtmp://peertube.example.org:1935/live/STREAM-KEY

          (taken from here -> https://docs.joinpeertube.org/use-create-upload-video?id=with-jitsi-meet)

            @luckow thank you, that's good to know
            I hate YouTube ! And would prefer not to put content there.
            So def useful.

            Certainly streaming is more important than recording.
            I didn't really miss it on my self-hosted docker VPS.

              @timconsidine In my tests, the delay on my Peertube instance is almost 28 seconds. There is a potential for performance 🙂

                Is this something that's planned to be done, or is this a module we can install ourselves, I think the recording module for some specific meetings is something very important.
                Thanks

                    Be good to sort that too.

                      This is currently not working indeed and jibri is not even configured with the current package. The main reason is, that this is essentially done via a chromium instance joining the call and then recording its window. This means we have to install X11 libraries and even audio libs within the app and then this only allows for one recording at the same time. More info here in the Readme

                      I kinda prefer to support the jibri option, where one can add jibri instances externally (or maybe also as cloudron app instances) Jibri also is only built against Ubuntu 18.04 it seems. So far I wasn't able to set this up yet for testing.

                        @nebulon so it might be better to use a screencast recording type of local sw while doing a jisti call than a server based jibri thing.

                        Is there a desktop version of jibri where the UI & libs are already there?

                          Yeah went to check deeper after I posted this and saw that this looks more complicated than said.

                          I kinda prefer to support the jibri option, where one can add jibri instances externally (or maybe also as cloudron app instances)

                          If I hear you correctly that means we'd need a jibri server installed besides the jitsi install.
                          I mean, I also went to explore for the config.js option and there's a section to configure the jibri server indeed.
                          So this is something to be tested positively, I'll try shortly and report.

                          Jibri also is only built against Ubuntu 18.04 it seems.

                          Just like the BBB server, of least the last time I installed one.

                            This is how zoom works. That should be the best way I think I saw there's a desktop version of jitsi I'm gonna check on this as well.

                                Well, all that being said, finally when you think about that, it's very feasible to use OBS to record the meeting session from one's desktop whether using jitsi desktop or jitsi meet through browser.

                                Yes. Simply add the meeting session as a component of your OBS presentation and poom! you start recording in OBS. Done.

                                On the other hand, it might more difficult to accomplish from a mobile session and that is where jibri would comes in I guess.

                                  That's not what you think it is.

                                  It's actually a completely separate SIP client, nothing to do with Jitsi Meet. Unfortunate branding/naming.

                                    You're right it's not what I thought, and verily has nothing to do at all with Jitsi Meet at closer look. 😞
