The audio troubleshooting modal has very microphone-specific strings,
which might confuse users trying to join listen only.
Review the Help screen so that listen only scenarios are more generic.
As a bonus, review the unknownError locale with a more actionable text.
Listen only has a built-in retry routine on join failures that's
convoluted half-broken. It stems from the Kurento era where it could
fail randomly due to a myriad of reasons.
Production logs indicate that the retry is seldom used nowadays in
mediasoup-based environments. The presence of the retry also breaks
the error troubleshooting modal when actual failures happening, leaving
users in the dark about what's happening.
Remove the listen only retry code from AudioManager and bubble up any
join failure to the callers.
In scenarios where the join audio flow skips echo test, NotAllowedError
(and any other errors) are all being mashed together under a generic
MEDIA_ERROR object.
Properly handle specific errors in audio-manager so they're correctly
render in the audio modal help screen.
- Adds a new Help view for unknown error codes
- Correctly detect NotAllowedError (permissions) - they are currently
being treated like unknown errors in the Help modal
- Rephrase NotAllowedError help text; make it more succint and direct
- Rephrase the unknown error help text; make it more succint and direct
- Add error code and message to that view
- Add public.media.audioTroubleshootingLinks to allow referencing KB
links on the Help modal
- See inline docs
Mobile users have no way to change I/O devices after joining audio.
The removal of the audio options chevron in mobile browsers was supposed
to be replaced by something else - in this case, by the dedicated
leave/join audio button. That didn't happen, leave/join audio button
retained the old behavior.
Review device selection in mobile endpoints via two UI/UX changes:
- Fix an styling issue where the mute and listen only buttons were
crammed together
- Restore the device selection chevron/icon in mobile endpoints
- Override the leave/join button action in mobile endpoints so that it
opens the device selection contextual menu, which also includes the
"Leave audio" option. This retains the old behavior (leaving audio)
while also providing an way for users to change devices mid-call in
mobile browsers.

Fixes a case where the locale selector don't show up in Chrome when using
'webspeech' provider.
And adds missing fields to the webspeech transcription messages, after the
addition of some new parameters to those messages with the open
transcription server.
This feature was too coupled to the old closed captions' pads.
(e.g. the old closed captions feature should be enabled for this
to work properly)
Some things were hardcoded and others didn't make sense from the
user experience perspective.
Reverts #876d8aa.
Partially reverts #802964f, removes changes to make closed captions'
pads compatible with live-transcription but keeps provider settings.
The current Vosk CC provider does not support stereo mic streams
(pending investigation as to why).
This commits makes sure stereo is forcefully disabled via SDP munging
only when transcription is active and using Vosk. Having it disabled
in the server side (FreeSWITCH) is not enough because the stereo parameter
is client mandated and replicated by FS on its answer. So we need to
make sure it's always disabled for the time being.
SFU audio does munging server side (and stereo is always off), so no changes
needed there.
The rest of the providers (except WebSpeech) need to be validated against
stereo audio as well.
This is also intended to be temporary - ideally this needs to be fixed in
mod_audio_fork/Vosk/wherever this is breaking.
Firefox does not support selecting an audio output device in its default
configuration. This works around this flaw by just displaying default
output instead of no device found.
Fixes#16057
Output device changes aren't working in 2.6's echo test when artifical delay
is on due to the fact that the feedback audio is being played via the WebAudio
context rather the the HTMLMediaElement. Since output device change works
via HTMLMediaElement's setSinkId, it's basically a no-op.
This commit fixes the issue by piping the AudioContext destination
through the main audio element rather than using WebAudio directly for
playback. An additional stub media element (muted) is added to circumvent one
of Chrome's WebAudio issue.
The alternative would be to use AudioContext's setSinkId, but it isn't
supported by Firefox (setSinkId enabled) and Chrome < 110.
This should work with FF (setSinkId enabled) and a wide array of Chromium
versions.
There was an observer being linked to all breakout rooms that the user has
access to. This logic works for attendees, but not for moderators.
Moderators have access to the list of all breakout rooms, so they were set
with an observer to breakout rooms that they didn't participate, which caused
the audio and video modals to appear everytime the breakout rooms were closed.
So, this commit:
- hangs an breakout rooms' observer only on those mods that have joined any
breakout room. This way, mods that didn't participate in any breakout
room won't be disturbed by the audio and video modal.
- adds an extra check to ensure that the observer will only be run in
non-breakout meetings.
If BBB 2.6 is used without headphones, the audio test works differently
than in 2.5. In 2.5 audio traffic is routed to freeswitch and then
returned to the browser. This adds usually some latency which makes it
easy to hear you audio quality. In 2.6 there is a local loopback. As
there is almost no latency, it is either difficult or even impossible to
check your own audio quality as echo cancellation of the browser will
filter out your own signal.
This patch adds a delay node to the audio loopback test, which makes is
easier to check your quality.
