48 | | Jitsi meet is solid software, however, getting video and audio to work across different computers and platforms is still quite experimental. Be sure to test thoroughly before relying on a jitsi web conference. |
| 48 | * Jitsi meet works best with 20 or fewer participants. |
| 49 | * If just one participant is using an un-supported browser (like an older version of Firefox or Internet Edge/Explorer or Safari) it can make the entire meeting fail. |
| 50 | * To conserve bandwidth, only the last 8 participants who have spoken will have their video streams sent to everyone else. |
| 51 | * We still have reports of some computers, particularly older ones, struggling to keep up with a meeting. |
| 52 | * If you are using video for all participants, ''each'' participant needs a high bandwidth connection. Alternatively, instruct participants to turn off their video when they are not speaking. |
| 53 | * There is no option dial into a jitsi meeting using a regular phone call on the May First servers |
| 54 | * You cannot record jitsi meet calls (unless you use a separate screen saving app) |
| 55 | * There are no break out rooms - however, you can instruct users to go to different rooms and then return to the main room - it's manual, not automatic |
