1732418 - Jitsi won't share screen

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Widget: Gtk, defect)

Description

[lymber]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:88.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/88.0

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open Firefox
2. Create a Jitsi room
3. Share any window or screen

Actual results:

The shared window/screen appears on my side but other participants can't see it.

Expected results:

All the participants should see my shared window/screen.

It's important to notice that this expected behavior is achieved when you turn on the video (webcam) if both participants use Firefox (one on Linux (version 88) and other on MacOSX (version 92)).

Hi Martin,

Attached the requested file. Hope it helps. Another thing is that Firefox was upgraded to version 92 here and the bug still persists.

Thanks.

Are you able to find a regression range?

$ pip3 install --user mozregression
$ mozregression --good 87 --bad 92 -a https://meet.jit.si

Hi Darkspirit, (almost scared about your name here ;))

In this recent release (93.0) provided Debian Testing official packaging system the problem seems to be gone!

Thanks!

Best, Alexandre

Okay thanks, so closing if it works with FF93.
Please reopen if you see the issue again.
Thanks.
