This didn't happen on version 3.7.7? If you change to use the browser instead of the application window in settings, it works?

Hi, It never worked for me on Electron. I tested it with 3.1.1 an hour ago, didn't work either. In a browser, it works (but not with Firefox).

Thanks for looking into it,

Ok, that information helps a lot. I thought that the PR that you said about it has done this. I will take a look at this. Thanks for reporting.

Ah, no sorry. I just thought that because it get worked on Jitsi, it would maybe work on BigBlueButton. But it didn't ;)

No problem. I didn't know that BBB has this problem. See if there is a way to make it work inside the application window like Jitsi.

Please test with Rocket.chat 5.2 version that will be available soon. With version 5.0 we introduced the Video Conference that changed all the way that we handle video chat.
