Google Meet Does Not Work While Connected to Proxy #6

Closed xeemzor closed 3 years ago

xeemzor commented 3 years ago

Whenever I try to use google meet for video conferences while connected to this proxy the connection does not work. I am able to join, but can't hear or see anyone. The connection then disconnects after 15-30 seconds with an error about a firewall.

This can be replicated by attempting to join any meeting through the https://meet.google.com/ service while connected to the proxy.

Is it possible to fix this proxy to work with google meet?

Unfortunately, it looks like Google Meet does not currently support SOCKS5 proxies such as this one. From their documentation:

We strongly recommend that you do not use proxy servers for Meet traffic. ... The Socket Secure (SOCKS5) internet protocol is not currently supported.
