You are the man!

We setup Jitsi on blank server through a hosting company, and I am in no way qualified to be working with a server like Jibri requires…

… got Jibri set up for my superiors first try with your help!

Awesome background information as well!

Thank you for the wonderful job you did on this.

My recording fails and I found when I check on the status of jibri via systemctl i get this.

Hi there! That output is normal, and does not show what the issue is. (The process is "active (running)" which means that service has not crashed.) You'll need to check your logs in /var/log to know why the recording is failing.

Hi
I couldn't see any option for editing a previous post I posted.

This is the kernel I have on my Digitalocean Jitsi Droplet
Linux jitsimeet 4.15.0-99-generic #100-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 22 20:32:56 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
will it work with your instructions?

Wow
What a great job you've done!!!
The recording and streaming now appears in my jitsi settings
Unfrotunately the recording doesn't actually work.
Is there a way for troubleshooting?

I had to create an account to comment. thanks for sharing it :)

Jibri itself guide is not complete as you said on video, but you helped me a lot with some tips, specially java 8 and chrome policie.

By the way on you guide the policie is not written

Im running it on 2 ubuntu 18.04 servers, jibri alone and jitsi environment on another server but for some reason my "recorder" is joining the rooms ! In the community i didnt find directions, any idea what could be?
The hidden settings is ok, no effect :|
