Setting Audio and Video Permissions for Video Calls

When joining a video call, ensuring that your audio and video permissions are correctly set is crucial for a smooth communication experience. This article will guide you through the steps to check and allow these permissions across various platforms.


Common Causes

  • Permissions Not Granted: Your browser or device may not have the necessary permissions to access the microphone or camera.
  • Firewall or Network Restrictions: Network or firewall settings might block video call features.

Advanced Troubleshooting

1. Microphone/Camera Not Detected or Blank Screen

  • Validate microphone and video permissions.
  • During the call, click on the gear icon at the top right of the video call screen.
  • Select the available audio and video options on your device.
  • Click Test to ensure it is working.
  • Close and proceed with your meeting.

2. Can’t Access Video Call at All

2.1. Firewall Issue

  • The firewall might block the port for 1-1 video streams. Deactivate personal antivirus or firewall software temporarily or contact your IT team to allow access if using a corporate firewall.
  • Jublia’s Video App runs on port TCP/443. Ensure your network configuration or firewall does not block that port.
  • Whitelist the following network addresses:
    • 99.77.128.0:3478
    • 99.77.191.255:3478

2.2. Browser Issue

  • Ensure your browser supports Web Real-Time Communications (RTC) technology. Upgrade your browser if necessary.
  • For mobile devices, use Safari on iOS and Chrome/Firefox on Android.

3. User Can’t Share the Screen During a Call

  • Screen sharing is not supported on mobile phones. Use a laptop or desktop instead.

4. User Disconnected from the Video Call

  • Click the Rejoin button to reconnect seamlessly. If the issue persists, try connecting to a different network.

5. Stuck in the Joining Process

  • Check popup permissions on the browser. If the problem continues, try another supported browser or a different connection.

6. System on Heavy Load

  • Wait for a moment and retry accessing the meeting. If the issue persists, switch to another supported browser or network.
