Bug Scope

I am observing this on Firefox Release (104.0b9) and Nightly (105.0a1 (2022-08-11)) on macOS.

Test Condition

Expected Result

  • Video conferencing works

Actual Result

  • Google shows the participants video streams
  • All video streams are "empty," i.e., no content.
  • There is no sound from the speaker(s).

Artifacts

Browser Console

The console shows this error:
WebRTC: ICE failed, add a STUN server and see about:webrtc for more details

about:webrtc Trace

See attached file aboutWebrtc_20220812_0919.html.

Update: The issue also exists for video sessions with only 1 other participant.

Blocks: meet
No longer depends on: meet

So, meet is definitely not supplying any ICE servers. I wonder if they're hitting some bug in setConfiguration?

I have had no luck reproducing this; could you try reproducing with a new profile?

Hi bwc,

I just reproduced on Firefox Release 104.0b9 with a clean, new profile.
Can I ask you for your test setup? What else could I do to help you analyze the issue?

Best regards,
Henrik

Is there any chance you're using a web proxy? Or maybe a VPN?

It is possible that a wireshark trace could shed some light on what is happening here.

I am not using a web proxy or VPN. I will see if I can produce a wireshark trace.

Ok, this is embarrassing ... I was working from a different location for the past 10 days. Today I returned home and ... Google Meet in Firefox Release and Nightly is again working like a charm.

I assume there was some weird IP/network setup in the remote location. It is strange that Safari was working, though.

As I no longer have access to the remote location, I will close this bug.

Thanks for helping me and sorry for creating the noise. Please accept my sincere apologies.

Best regards,
Henrik
