Screensharing via jitsi does not work via snap #2385

My Setup

Description

I can't share my screen in a jitsi video call.

I have taken a look at the snap permissions, can't identify an issue there (had to enable camera manually for video to work in jitsi):

Current Behavior

There's no desktop or window to select in the selection dialog for what to share.

Expected Behavior

It should behave as it does in a browser, showing windows and desktops to select for sharing.

You will need to enable the permission on the snap store. I don't know why but it doesn't enables by default.

neurolabs commented 2 years ago

@jeanfbrito thanks, but which one? They are all enabled AFAICS snap-store-permissions The one that is disabled (record audio) is not enablable. And recording audio works in jitsi video calls inside of Rocket.Chat.

This is a bug in Rocket Chat Server not Rocket Electron app. https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/issues/25112

Although using Rocket.Chat.Electron 3.6.0 or below, will also result in a working version (apparently permissions where not checked correctly in older versions).

Facing issues in screen sharing using the desktop app.

It was initially working for me as expected. When I do the screen sharing for the first time using the desktop app from windows, a pop-up comes asking for the permission. But for other team members, there weren't any such pop-ups appeared. After I tried to uninstall and re-install the desktop app, it doesn't work for me either.
