Looks like we won't see free Jitsi anymore (
A window began to appear in Jitsi that video communication will be disabled after 5 minutes. And I just started building my service around video conferencing.
In the message, the link leads to some new jaas product.
What will UNA developers say? On our mobile application will videoconferencing from Jitsi be implemented, for example Jaas?
-
This is not good.
-
Very important question. Hope to read from UNA soon @Alexey

IT was good while it lasted. We will setup our own Meet server next week, but ultimately production sites are best off running own Jitsi server. @Alex T⚜️ and I are working on a new orchestration system now, which is supposed to address this.
-
Indeed...
-
The Jitsi, Rocket Chat, Streaming apps should have been fully integrated into UNA Apps awhile ago instead of being used as third party apps. I just hope UNA understands how crucial and beneficial it will be to create a scaling server that can implement this and provide possible timeline updates. 🙏

Hi @Andrey Yasko. Please could you make it more clear? What do you mean? Will the new Meet server be for UNA cloud only? What about us, self-hosted UNA websites? Will we be able to install that new Meet server on our own server? Will UNA completely drop Jitsi? How are we going to make video calls and video conferences? We are planning to launch our new UNA Website and I am completely lost now. @Alexey

We need to clarify in Jitsi, we can continue to apply the current bundle by installing our server and pointing to it in the UNA settings. Or is this a fundamental move by Jitsi and we will only be able to use their service as a service, but we will not be able to put our server on UNA.
-
Will the Meet server also include Scaling Streaming?
-
Jisti supported free Jitsi instance for a while, but it wont' last long. However they still offer completely free standalone version which you can install on your own server - https://jitsi.org/downloads/ , it's possible to change Jisti Meet server UNA messenger settings.
-
To be clear, as @Alex T⚜️ mentioned, Jistsi is still free and open source. What we are talking about is the free Jitsi Meet server that they used to provide. It still takes resources to offer it though, so it's only fair that they pulled it. We are considering a few options and likely would offer a Jitsi server, but we would not be able to offer it for free either. Bundles with a cloud subscription or a Pro plan, perhaps, but not free. It will have to be metered as well. If you're running your own server, you can install it on-prem anytime.
-
Great. I hope they will not cancel this option of using their software, but on our server.
-
Thanks a lot @Alex T⚜️
-
Thanks @Andrey Yasko. Got you!
-
Will this server include scaled streaming?
-
Last night I was able to use the jitsi webcam feature and it didn't give me that error message saying it would shut off in 5 mins. We are paying MSolutions to install a jitsi meet server on our dedicated server.
-
Great news. What server parameters were ordered and how many people simultaneously experienced videoconferencing?
And I also wanted to ask about the Jitsi logo, is it removed when you put it on your server?
