User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:86.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/86.0

Steps to reproduce:

Started conference call from home to join a meeting with my colleagues using Pexip.

Actual results:

The video stream from my end was very poor and clunky and I was asked to disable video and just participate with microphone.

Expected results:

For the past year this has worked perfectly.
The problem all happened after upgrading to Firefox 86. Therefor I downgraded to Firefox 85.0.2 and now it works great again.
Have you changed something?

Summary: video stream during conference → Video stream quality in Pexip decreased from 85 to 86

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Audio/Video: Playback' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Component: Untriaged → Audio/Video: Playback
Product: Firefox → Core

This sounds like a WebRTC issue. Moving it to the right component.

Component: Audio/Video: Playback → WebRTC: Audio/Video

Peter, if you have a moment to try on Firefox 86 again, would you mind going to about:config and setting media.navigator.video.use_transport_cc to false? If your issue is resolved this will tell us if it is related to a change made to improve a simulcast switching issue that has made other situations potentially worse.

Sure! Tomorrow I have a few meetings using Pexip. I’ll prepare my Surface with Firefox 86 and give it a go with some modified configurations.
I’ll let you know what I find.

Hi Michael,
You can close this incident. I am not able to reproduce. I tried your config both true and false but I wasn't able to reproduce my problem.
Might be a glitch in the Matrix.

Thank you for the update and being willing to try.
