sknebel Zegnat: didn't you try meet.jit.si for VHWC? notes on that?
[chrisaldrich] joined the channel
#
Zegnat We did. I think we switched to appear.in for the photo, and petermolnar complained about cpu usage.
#
Zegnat For the actual talking it seemed to run fine though
#
sknebel add to /Virtual_HWC?
#
Zegnat Honestly? All of the WebRTC stuff so far has been working about equal for me. Except for Talky which is the only one that really munched into my data for some reason.

sknebel Zegnat: ok, wasn't sure if it is the same principle (I remember jitsi as some server thing, but they seem to have multiple subprojects)
#
Zegnat I remembered Jitsi as an XMPP client? But they either stopped that project or it got spin-off or something?
#
sknebel could be
#
sknebel talky being worse also isn't covered explicitly
#
Zegnat Really, we are mostly voice only, so outside of the photo moment, Mumble would actually be great, hehe
#
sknebel no demos?
#
sknebel I personally like video though
#
sknebel although it's kind of weird if only half the people have it

#
sknebel you've been to more of the VHWCs, so I'll trust you on that. if Mumble sounds good, we should set it up and try it
#
Zegnat I think we have used screenshare at 1 of them so far? While it is really nice to have access to it, I am not sure it is truly a necessity, is all.
#
sknebel how common were problems were someone couldn't join/not see/hear everybody else?
#
Zegnat We had some issues with tantek with that. Which might have been on Jitsi before switching to appear.in. And I think Lukas and I weren’t able to connect on Talky and appear.in, haven’t seen him on any since.
#
sknebel k
#
sknebel so mumble + a list of other services for screen shares (or even just a quicklink to a screenshot share :P) sounds good.
#
Zegnat To me, yes, but of course we haven’t done a true Mumble VHWC yet. We kinda need to run our own server for it if we want to enable web-mumble
#
sknebel shouldn't be to much of a problem to set that up temporarily

#
petermolnar wasn't mumble without video?
#
sknebel yes
#
sknebel question is if video is needed - if screenshare isn't used much, at least least week only a few had video even on. I kind of like seeing who I'm talking to, but if mumble means less technical issues...
