Hi,

I've just done a clean install of 18.04 and popped BBB 2.4.rc3 onto it. Can you pop a note into https://docs.bigbluebutton.org/2.4/new.html#installation to mention the use of -g to install Greenlight, it often catches me out and I then have re-run the command (minus the TLS stuff) with it. Other than that, it seems to be behaving very well.

Regards,

Phill.

Hi,

Thank you for the great work. We installed BBB 2.4.rc3 a few days ago on clean Ubuntu 18.04.  Audio quality is great but we experience webcam drops very frequently with error "Media server fails. Please try again". We try again, the webcams are on for a short while and gone again.

I ran 12 BBB servers in total and BBB 2.4.rc2 does not have this issue. I hope this webcam can be improved in the official release.

Kind regards,

[Fred Dixon]

Done.

You should describe your use case/ how many video cam streams, server cpu/memory and look at the media server logs for the exact error you are getting and provide the details so someone can assist you in identifying the issue.

 

Do you have any changes the the standard configs?

Are you using Kurento?

 

Regards,

Stephen
