Hi, Firefox 78.3 from Mageia 7 is not able to pass echo test in BigBlueButton and is not able to activate the video from a webcam. That issue does not occur with Firefox 78.3 from upstream. I was not able to test BigBlueButton with firefox or firefox-beta from Cauldron but it seems very likely that the problem also occurs in Cauldron because I suspect that the updates of p11-kit and crypto-policies may have a responsibility in that defect of WebRTC. Best regards, Nico.

Thanks for the report. If you give me the necessary precise steps to reproduce this, I will try it on MGA8 - for BigBlueButton only (whatever that is). When you say "is not able to activate the video from a webcam", what is meant to happen, and what does not? Is FF supposed to display the live webcam? Or view a pre-recorded video from same? What do you mean by 'activate' - display? Excuse my lack of familiarity with these worlds. CC'ing Aurelien who may be. Firefox is one of those packages to assign globally.

Hi, To test BigBlueButton: 1) go to https://test.bigbluebutton.org/ 2) enter something as a name 3) select joining with microphone 4) give permission to the microphone 5) wait for echo test and speak a little => no echo with Mageia Firefox and echo with uptream one 6) clic the button at the bottom of the screen to share the webcam 7) give permission to the webcam 6) see that the image is displayed but cannot be shared with error 1020 with Mageia Firefox whereas the webcam is shared without error with upstream Firefox. Best regards, Nico.

Hi, Finally, I was able to test with firefox and firefox-beta from Mageia in a Cauldron Virtualbox VM. Results: - firefox: same as firefox from Mageia 7. - firefox-beta: echo test is not working but sharing the webcam is working. Best regards, Nico.
ERRATUM: I had some problem enabling the microphone in my VM. When I enabled it, I the echo test worked for firefox-beta (but not for firefox).
Hi, Sadly, I don't have any webcam, nor microphone to test this, for the time. I will check on my parents PC later this week.
Do you have permission problem with your webcam? See: https://support.mozilla.org/fr/kb/gerer-permissions-camera-et-microphone Or: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-manage-your-camera-and-microphone-permissions
I have no permission problem because local activation works. I found another site for testing microphone and webcam using webrtc without connection to a remote server and it worked. The issue appears during communication with the remote server. Since firefox-beta works, I think the problem can come from building firefox 78 ESR with NSS 3.57 but I cannot find any reference to that issue nor a patch in other Linux distributions or BSD like the one I found for Firefox 68 ESR and NSS 3.52.
Status against latest version available in Cauldron?

This is very good news! Hopefully, Firefox 78.11 is due this Tuesday 1st June. So, this will land asap in core/updates_testing.

Nope. Mozilla did a fix upstream for the bug 28359. But an other patch we included broke this and the above bug. I agree to close as same fix same cause, but not before we push an update. Let's depend this in bug 28359.
