So far the only video conferencing I have done is when I have a video appointment with a Kaiser doctor. The first few times it worked fine in Chromium 80.0.3987.87 on Xubuntu 18.04 with my laptop (needed for the camera). Since it worked in Chromium I never tried Firefox. Yesterday I had another such conference and Chromium refused to connect. I switched to Firefox 73.0 and it worked fine. Don't ask me why. As long as one of them works I don't much care. _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
