Thanks for the report! Did Jitsi give you a specific error? Could you also check the Chrome Inspector console (cmd-option-i) for errors?

johnboiles commented 4 years ago

Also, what FPS, color space, and resolution are you using from OBS?

chrismarquardt commented 4 years ago

No specific error message. 30 FPS, yuv, 1080p.

Odd thing is that I couldn’t reproduce the issue since. After it began to work, it now works consistently. Strange. Guess you can close this for now, I’ll reopen and provide some more debug info if it comes back.

Strange! Def reopen if you start having issues again.
