Re: reccomendations of conference / party audio video software ?
Hi, Sorry to arrive late, I just see this post now. If your install videoconferencing software on your machine, you have no guarantee your contacts will be able to use the same, or that they'll know how to install it, or even that they'll be allowed to install anything on their PC. A much easier solution is to use a server based software. You can use a Jitsi-derived solution - a public server is available at https://meet.jit.si/. No account creation needed, no administration, just share a URL and you're done. You can also deploy this solution on one of your servers, it's open source. Another similar solution is BigBlueButton. I'm using it to give trainings, it is simple and efficient. I use it in conjunction with a VM served through Apache Guacamole for the labs. The thing is: your contacts don't need to install anything on their machines (= you don't have to do troubleshooting over the phone), all they need is an HTML5 capable browser. And unlike Skype, the quality of sound and video is good and you don't have to register at Microsoft. Be it meet.jit.si or BigBlueButton, no ports are available yet, but the need for such solutions hasn't been so pressing before. ;) Vincent ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
