Hi Zeeshan,

You can change the value for beans.presentationService.defaultUploadedPresentation in

  /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/bigbluebutton/WEB-INF/classes/bigbluebutton.properties

See


You'll need to restart BigBlueButton after you change the value to take effect.


Regards,... Fred

Hi Muhammad,

You can modify the default presentation in BigBlueButton 0.8-beta-4 by changing the file in

  /var/www/bigbluebutton-default/default.pdf

Hi Puneet,

That is the correct location.  Here is the contents of that directory

  /var/www/bigbluebutton-default$ ls
 css  default.pdf  default.ppt  favicon.ico  help.html  images  index.html  robots.txt

If you have setup a development environment on a BigBlueButton server, you should have the above directory.

Hi Cl,

Yes.  We've disabled it in 0.81-dev as we're not convinced the data is accurate.  Also, it currently throws too many numbers at the user, who isn't likely going to understand them anyway.

We're trying to figure out a better way to communicate to the user a problem if BigBlueButton detects -- and correctly detects -- their network has insufficient upstream bandwidth to participate in a sessions.

How can you check that the network has insufficient upstream bandwidth?
Is this a Flash feature?
Is it possible to also notify the user for in unstable network and dropped packets?

Thanks

Hi Pablo,

How can you check that the network has insufficient upstream bandwidth?

That's the question we're trying to answer.  We have one way right now in the network monitor, but it's (a) throwing too much data at the user, and (b) I'm not convinced yet the data is accurate.

Ultimately, we just want to tell the user 'You have insufficient bandwidth' (through some correct calculation), and have them go to speedtest.net to get an accurate reading.

Regards,... Fred

Fred, can you please point me to the code where you check the bandwidth?
I assume detecting bandwidth issues is possible but wonder how to detect dropped packets.
Maybe detect missing frames in the video/audio?

The "Downloading BigBlueButton" message can be changed in BigBlueButtonPreloader.as.

The favicon can be found in the client somewhere.

The demo chat message is referred to as the welcome message. It is set when the meeting is created by the welcomeMessage property.

Hi All,
I take the opportunity of the previous post started to ask a question, about the branding of the bbb-client, on development mode. I used the bbb ver. 0.80 .

I would like to build the client, and in particular:
1) change the default.pdf with my_example.pdf
2) change the default css, the default index.html (in example, the position of button, colours, style ...) as to testing a simple my_index.html

So, I read the wiki pages about the branding and build the bbb-client, but I would ask you:
1) I copy the file my_example.pdf on the dir /var/www/bigbluebutton-default, then I must compile the bbb with 'ant locales' and 'ant' on terminal or only bbb-conf restart .
2) If I don't use the FLEX Builder or another tool, I can build the bbb-client ?

About the (1) point, I found also the method to copy the file .pdf on the demo dir and consequently modify the file demo to point at the new pdf: I try also this method, but when bbb client started, I check the default.pdf (and not the my_example.pdf) on the default screen.

About the (2) point, I found the dir: home/user/dev/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton-client/src/org/bigbluebutton/main/view, and
I want to understand if I have to change all the files in the dir, and then I do ant locales and ant for the bbb-client building.

Thanks a lot.

Regards,
Mark.

Hi,
I would like to highlight the analysis that I'm doing, about the branding of the bbb-client, so that, please, can someone give me helpful:

I check the dir: /home/user/dev/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton-client/src/org/bigbluebutton/main/views , as it described on the building client page.

So, I have a simple question: If I would modify the layout of the main page,
I consider the main page or other pages linked to it?

Please, about the (1) previous point, perhaps,
I was not clear in my question:

(1.1) I check to change the file default.pdf with a file my_example.pdf, and
the new file has been replaced in the file: /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/bigbluebutton/WEB-INF/classes/bigbluebutton.properties at the line: beans.presentationService.defaultUploadedPresentation= ${bigbluebutton.web.serverURL}/my_example.pdf

Also, I put in the dir /var/www/bigbluebutton-default , the new file : my_example.pdf

It's correct or
it is missing some other step that I have not done?

Thanks,
M.
