Re: [clug-talk] online meeting:

2020-06-21 Thread Greg King
I gave up after trying with Firefox and Chrome on Linux Mint desktop. I also 
tried with a Windows VM but the camera was not connecting. I have done numerous 
video conferences with Skype and Zoom on my Linux desktop so I suspect the 
problem is with Jitsi web client. I have had better videoconferencing luck with 
desktop clients than web clients in general so this is not a big surprise. 

Nice seeing a couple of you again even if I had no audio.

Great hear from all of you chiming in. I am scrambling to get all of my things 
ready. 
I'm impressed with the clear full documentation available for Jitsi. 

Meeting: 
 
[ https://meet.jit.si/clug | https://meet.jit.si/clug ] just after 12:30 today 
with Michael and any others who want to join up. 
 

The 12:30 time is when Mike is no longer otherwise occupied today. (available:) 

Rocky, 
I may have a spare laptop with a camera to use before your preferred solution. 
We can talk about headset solutions too. 

Text me if that's better for you. 

PS thanks to Sam, Ian and Gustin for adding clearity.

Sorry but I will miss the meeting. 

My microphone doesn't work properly. (I can hear but not speak) 
and I have no camera. 

Perhaps when I get my new computer. 
My current one is long in the tooth. 

Just letting you know I am still interested in clug.

I have a Jitsi instance running in Cybera.  Since most of us are Alberta
citizens, there are free cloud resources available (8 vCPUs, 8 GB of RAM,
and 1 TB of total storage, 1 public IPv4).  I am not affiliated with them
at all, other than as a user.

2020-06-18 Thread Sam Khangyi
jitsi worked fine, had no installation process, and only required a 
browser, granted I fired it up on Firefox, it just worked. Honestly i 
will try giving jami a try, but let's get the conferences going with 
jitsi, and we can discuss other methods there if we want.


Jitsi is super easy, click on the link, allow it to use you camera and 
microphone, and join the conference. that's it. https://meet.jit.si/clug


Let's set the time and the date. weekend is coming up.

Cheers

Sam

any comments so far on your attempts with jitsi?

I just installed jami (GPLv3) ubuntu version and am interested in
comparing.
