Screenshare blurs when sent from Chrome
We had feedback from customers https://git.fairkom.net/clients/ronge-partner/wlfairmeeting/-/issues/35 https://git.fairkom.net/clients/ekir/jitsi/-/issues/24 that in some constellations shared screen blurs at end users.
After doing a lot of testing and reading in the Jitsi community forum @dimitri.hofer found the recommendation, that the default setting of 5 fps should NOT be changed.
If the frame rate is different than the default 5 fps, Chrome is doing simulcast and may send lower resolution to some or all users.
// desktopSharingFrameRate.max now determines whether simulcast will be enabled
// or disabled for the screenshare.
// Optional desktop sharing frame rate options. Default value: min:5, max:5.
// desktopSharingFrameRate: {
// min: 5,
// max: 5
// },
If higher frame rates are needed (e.g. for sharing a video), a user can change the fps in the UI. Firefox is recommended in that case.
meet.jit.si has not anymore set the fps in the config at all
