Can we use VP9 video codec in openvidu and homepage not visible?

OpenVidu v2 Issues developing apps
1

  1. I have installed openvidu in ubuntu by referring “https://docs.openvidu.io/en/2.12.0/deployment/deploying-ubuntu/” .
    Also installed kurento media server, redis, coturn server manually.
    I am accessing SdpEndpoint.conf.json file to give priority for codecs. VP8, H264, opus, AMR, PCMU codecs works absolutely fine. I have added VP9 codec in json file, but it doesn’t work. Am I missing something here? Is there any other way to add VP9 codec to openvidu?

  2. When I access 127.0.0.1 , it doesn’t show openvidu home page, just shows dashboard URL where I can test the connection. How to configure homepage codes manually in ubuntu?

Please deploy latest version 2.14.

VP9 is not supported in OpenVidu at the moment.

Thanks for the reply @micael.gallego .

Yeah, I have deployed latest version of openvidu 2.14.0
However home page is not showing login for the room, just shows dashboard URL to test the connection.

I am using “sudo java -jar -Dopenvidu.secret=MY_SECRET_KEY -Dopenvidu.publicurl=https://127.0.0.1:4443/ /PATH/openvidu-server-2.14.0.jar” to initiate the server.

I have manually installed kurento server, redis and coturn. I need openvidu homepage codes to integrate with these above mentioned configurations.

Hello @mkvalakkunja, we only support docker based deployment.

If you need to used OpenVidu Call app, you have to download and deploy it by yourself.

Yeah will do it @micael.gallego .

Right now it is 7 seconds for automatic re-connection in openvidu . If network is not available for more than 7 seconds, connection will be disconnected. So my question is, can you tell me if there is any option to extend automatic re-connection for more than 15 seconds?

For web we have SdpEndpoint.conf.json file for giving our desired priority for audio and video codecs.What about android? How can we give our desired priority to codecs in android?

Please use new topics for new questions to better management.

Sure thing @micael.gallego

Hi @micael.gallego are there any plans for VP9 support?

VP9 will be soon available in OpenVidu Enterprise edition 2.19 with mediasoup media server.

In fact right now can be used. But you need to modify openvidu-browser yourself to modify SDP offer in the publisher. Basically you have to remove all codecs except VP9 in the sdp offer. But take into account that VP9 is not supported in all browsers. So if a browser not supporting VP9 wants to subscribe to a VP9 publisher it won’t work.
