Hello again everyone.

I posted this a few days ago but didn't get a response.

We need to be able to create a meeting and FORCE the client version to HTML5.

Is there a way to set a flag in JoinMeetingParameters php-class so the user will join in html5? 

or do we need to set anything in CreateMeetingParameters class for that?

We are connecting Mobile browsers and web browsers so we need to force it.

Again, really appreciate it.
Marco

I'm not sure what front-end you're using and how much control you have over it, but I think you can achieve what you want with an extra parameter on the generated join URL.

The HTML5 demo does this by passing in client URL that it wants bbb-web to direct the user to. You can find the client URL format here, https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton/blob/v2.0.x-release/bbb-api-demo/src/main/webapp/demoHTML5.jsp#L113-L114.

The helper function that the page uses can be found here, https://github.com/bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton/blob/v2.0.x-release/bbb-api-demo/src/main/webapp/bbb_api.jsp#L124-L150. You can see that it just adds a "clientURL" parameter to the join URL before the checksum is calculated. I'm not sure if the "redirectClient=true" parameter is required or not.
