Trying to use a Raspberry Pi running Debian as a client in jitsi meetings, joining the jitsi meeting in Firefox, but the audio is really bad, too bad to even be usable at all. Discussed with others who tried it and they got the same kind of problems.

Note that this is not about setting up a jitsi server, this is about using a Raspberry Pi as a client, as one of the meeting participants.

Are there some things that need to be tweaked to make that work?

IIRC Firefox use of things like GPU-acceleration on ARM is limited, thus the CPU is having to work hard.

Chromium does that better.

Can also vary between distros.

@tsvenson thanks, I'll try and see if chromium works better.

@eliasr

Things are improving for Firefox too. I've noticed positive things related to for example GPU-accelerating lately.

The official Raspberry Pi OS is usually where things happen first.
