It +handle both messages, audio and video. It uses distributed hash +tables instead of central infrastructure to connect its users to each +other, which in my book is a plus. I mentioned briefly that it could +also work as a SIP client, which came in handy when the higher +educational sector in Norway started to promote Zoom as its video +conferencing solution. I am reluctant to use the official Zoom client +software, due to their <a href="https://zoom.us/terms">copyright +license clauses</a> prohibiting users to reverse engineer (for example +to check the security) and benchmark it, and thus prefer to connect to +Zoom meetings with free software clients.</p> + +<p>Jami worked OK as a SIP client to Zoom as long as there was no +password set on the room. The Jami daemon leak memory like crazy +(approximately 1 GiB a minute) when I am connected to the video +conference, so I had to restart the client every 7-10 minutes, which +is not a great. I tried to get other SIP Linux clients to work +without success, so I decided I would have to live with this wart +until someone managed to fix the leak in the dring code base. But +another problem showed up once the rooms were password protected. I +could not get my dial tone signaling through from Jami to Zoom, and +dial tone signaling is used to enter the password when connecting to +Zoom. I tried a lot of different permutations with my Jami and +Asterisk setup to try to figure out why the signaling did not get +through, only to finally discover that the fundamental problem seem to +be that Zoom is simply not able to receive dial tone signaling when +connecting via SIP. There seem to be nothing wrong with the Jami and +Asterisk end, it is simply broken in the Zoom end. I got help from a +very skilled VoIP engineer figuring out this last part. And being a +very skilled engineer, he was also able to locate a solution for me. +Or to be exact, a workaround that solve my initial problem of +connecting to password protected Zoom rooms using Jami.</p> + +<p>So, how do you do this, I am sure you are wondering by now. The +trick is already +<a href="https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/202405539-H-323-SIP-Room-Connector-Dial-Strings#sip">documented +from Zoom</a>, and it is to modify the SIP address to include the room +password. What is most surprising about this is that the +automatically generated email from Zoom with instructions on how to +connect via SIP do not mention this. The SIP address to use normally +consist of the room ID (a number), an @ character and the IP address +of the Zoom SIP gateway. But Zoom understand a lot more than just the +room ID in front of the at sign. The format is "<tt>[Meeting +ID].[Password].[Layout].[Host Key]</tt>", and you can hear see how you +can both enter password, control the layout (full screen, active +presence and gallery) and specify the host key to start the meeting. +The full SIP address entered into Jami to provide the password will +then look like this (all using made up numbers):</p> <p><blockquote> -<p>"An American president does not lead the Free World by -congratulating dictators on winning sham elections."</p> +<tt>sip:657837644.522827@192.168.169.170</tt> </blockquote></p> -<p>While I totally agree with the senator here, the way the quote is -phrased make me suspect that he is unaware of the simple fact that USA -have not lead the Free World since at least before its government -<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maher_Arar">kidnapped a -completely innocent Canadian citizen in transit on his way home to -Canada via John F.

Wed, 14 Feb 2018 08:00:00 +0100 - <p>A few days ago, a new major version of -<a href="https://www.videolan.org/">VLC</a> was announced, and I -decided to check out if it now supported streaming over -<a href="http://bittorrent.org/">bittorrent</a> and -<a href="https://webtorrent.io">webtorrent</a>. Bittorrent is one of -the most efficient ways to distribute large files on the Internet, and -Webtorrent is a variant of Bittorrent using -<a href="https://webrtc.org">WebRTC</a> as its transport channel, -allowing web pages to stream and share files using the same technique. -The network protocols are similar but not identical, so a client -supporting one of them can not talk to a client supporting the other. -I was a bit surprised with what I discovered when I started to look. -Looking at -<a href="https://www.videolan.org/vlc/releases/3.0.0.html">the release -notes</a> did not help answering this question, so I started searching -the web. I found several news articles from 2013, most of them -tracing the news from Torrentfreak -("<a href=https://torrentfreak.com/open-source-giant-vlc-mulls-bittorrent-support-130211/">Open -Source Giant VLC Mulls BitTorrent Streaming Support</a>"), about a -initiative to pay someone to create a VLC patch for bittorrent -support. To figure out what happend with this initiative, I headed -over to the #videolan IRC channel and asked if there were some bug or -feature request tickets tracking such feature. I got an answer from -lead developer Jean-Babtiste Kempf, telling me that there was a patch -but neither he nor anyone else knew where it was. So I searched a bit -more, and came across an independent -<a href="https://github.com/johang/vlc-bittorrent">VLC plugin to add -bittorrent support</a>, created by Johan Gunnarsson in 2016/2017. -Again according to Jean-Babtiste, this is not the patch he was talking -about.</p> - -<p>Anyway, to test the plugin, I made a working Debian package from -the git repository, with some modifications.

It can take -quite a while before the video start playing without any indication of -what is going on from VLC. It took 10-20 seconds when I measured it. -Some times the plugin seem unable to find the correct video file to -play, and show the metadata XML file name in the VLC status line.
