No sound in Jitsi...

[nebulon]

@potemkin_ai so video works, but sound does not? Do you see any related errors in the client or app itself? Also is this with 2 participants or more? This may be relevant, as jitsi transmits video and sound differently if 2 or 3+ participants are in a conference.
With 2 it uses direct connection between the clients, from 3 participants on, all clients send data to the server which relays then.

[potemkin_ai]

@nebulon thanks for the prompt responce!
Nor video nor sounds works, for 2 or 3 participants.

Strange enough, it shows that all other conference members are muted - in both 3 participants and 2 participants mode, however they are not muted.

[nebulon]

@potemkin_ai for a start the 3 participant meeting should go via the app instance on port 10000 this is hardcoded in jitsi and can't be changed, so make sure this port is reachable from your client.

Further you likely see some connection errors in the browser logs as well as the connection candidates it found for webrtc, so check those.

On top of this, are you using Cloudrflare proxying by any chance for this domain? Just thought of this and it likely will break due to the extra port not forwarded by CF then.

Also, are you all on good internet connections?

Jitsi will automatically turn off cameras etc to try to ensure the meeting can go on when people have bad connections.

[potemkin_ai]

@nebulon my installation was with a port different from 10000 - reinstalling now, thank you!

A question then - what's the point of asking the port input at the installation process, if the port shouldn't be touched?

[potemkin_ai]

@jdaviescoates thank you, didn't know that, but it's out of question, the internet is stable

[nebulon]

@potemkin_ai the only reason we show it is, that our dashboard has no exception for such a case, which is why the description says "only default works" hopefully upstream supports other ports at some point though.

Is this solved then with the default port?

[potemkin_ai]

@nebulon need recheck and will let you know.

Probably worth to rephrase a sentence for the guys like me?

Something like: "Don't touch the port, unless you know what you are doing! Here is why" with a link on this forum?

[robi]

instructional message such as "DO NOT CHANGE" would stand out more

[potemkin_ai]

@robi yes, I was thinking about something of the kind, just though it might be too aggressive

@nebulon , the problem was with port, indeed, thank you!

[nebulon]

Given that we found that traccar also has essentially fixed ports, we decided to add a proper read-only flag to the manifest for ports, which will then be part of the next release now.

[potemkin_ai]

@nebulon cool, thanks!

[potemkin_ai]

@nebulon , unfortunately, it doesn't work again...
The video and audio doesn't work even for 2 participants for me and users report that it stops transmitting the sound after 3rd user attached.

Can't upload full log file due to forum restriction, but here is what seems to be a key lines:

BridgeChannel.js:84 WebSocket connection to 'wss://server.domain/colibri-ws/default-id/9e492323b5fe10c7/2dd3002a?pwd=2dhurejj37lfravd497k7t2jo7' failed:

The port is 10'000, nothing has been changed there.

Any help would be much appreciated!

@potemkin_ai

Check Cloudron services to make sure your TURN server is working.

Otherwise, I would uninstall and reinstall to make sure the port is unchanged everywhere.

Is any other upstream firewalling or routing happening or do you have a public IP for it?

It's been pretty bulletproof here otherwise.

[potemkin_ai]

@robi thank you.
TURN server is working and it's very fresh install of Jitsi.
Cloudron is behind a firewall/VPN, but once you are in, there are no restrictions and another (old, undockered) Jitsi works just fine here.

[robi]

@potemkin_ai and your fw has open ports for the Cloudron TURN server?

[nebulon]

I think you have to report this upstream as we are no jitsi experts here and given that the other instances of the package on Cloudron work fine, this may be some specific error with your routing setup. Generally only on the 3rd partivipant the video (and audio) bridge will be used but that is pretty much just a simple relay.

[potemkin_ai]

@nebulon I don't think that would be accepted, as I have the very same Jitsi running non-containerised and it works just fine.

I reinstalled the Jitsi again and it seems like working fine for now - will keep on testing

[opensourced]

@potemkin_ai have you made progess so far?

I have been running into the similar (if not even the same) issue here. My VM is behind a firewall in a LAN. Ports are open and everything is ready to go, but sound and image doesn't work.

The interesting thing is, that running Jitsi on Yunohost, works like a charm. Compared to your situation with your other working instance of Jitsi, i would assume a configuration issue. I have started analyzing the config files, however not found a solution so far.

If i find a solution, i will post it here...

Cheers

[potemkin_ai]

@opensourced I end up giving up on Jitsi on CloudRon unfortunately.
I'm not sure if it's something specific to Docker-izing it (as I had the same problems earlier, when it was Docker-ized under CapRover) or not.

The problem is that it doesn't work sporadically and troubleshooting it close to impossible, especially, since the problems are not easy to reproduce.

I returned to a dedicated host with Jitsi that I setup and upgrade (read: re-install) with this wonderful script - it worked without issues for me for half of the year, hope it would keep doing so going further.

@nebulon , JFYI.
