Jitsi is a set of open-source projects that allows you to easily build and deploy secure video conferencing solutions. At the heart of Jitsi are Jitsi Videobridge and Jitsi Meet, which let you have conferences on the internet, while other projects in the community enable other features such as audio, dial-in, recording, and simulcasting.
At GEN Europe, we have deployed our own Jitsi instance for internal use.
We are still testing its capabilities and whether it is possible to offer it in a wider scale to our members
Since 2023, GEN Europe has deployed its own instance of Jitsi. It has been adopted by staff and council and some working groups and projects.
Some features
- Jitsi Videobridge passes everyone’s video and audio to all participants, rather than mixing them first
- Better quality, lower latency and if you are running your own service, a much more scalable and inexpensive solution
- Jitsi is compatible with WebRTC, the open standard for Web communication
- Advanced video routing support for simulcast, bandwidth estimations, scalable video coding and many others
- Ubuntu and Debian packages for easy installation
