    Solve a problem on kMeet

    This guide explains how to resolve any issues during a kMeet meeting, the secure, unlimited and free videoconferencing solution from Infomaniak.

    For a video issue, refer to this other guide; for audio, this other guide.

     

    Screen sharing not possible

    When using the kMeet video conferencing solution, if the button to share your screen is not available and/or remains grayed out, check the security settings on your computer/operating system regarding…

    • … the kMeet application
    • … the browser (if you are using **kMeet** directly online without going through the application):

    For example, on macOS, check and then activate the required permissions:

    1. Go to System Settings under Privacy and Security then Screen Recording:
    2. Add your browser if necessary, or even kMeet if you have the desktop app on your computer:
    3. Also, familiarize yourself with the icons present in your browser's address bar and detect any potential authorization issues by clicking on the symbols:

     

    Unable to see or hear the other party

    If the conference has started, your contact has turned on their webcam and microphone, but you still can't see or hear them, ask them to check for a possible firewall on their machine or corporate network.

    A firewall may allow solutions like Google Meet or Microsoft Teams without necessarily allowing kMeet streams.

    In the firewall settings, here is what needs to be allowed:

    • The port range is the same for TCP and UDP protocols: 30000 to 32767.
    • For the turn server (recommended), add the TCP port 5349.
    • Allow the following IP addresses:
      • 185.125.24.0/24 (TCP)
      • 185.125.24.0/24 (UDP)

    You can also switch connections (from Wi-Fi to 4G/5G, for example) to check if it is indeed a firewall that is causing the desynchronizations.

    Manage kMeet participants

    This guide explains how to manually approve or deny participants to a meeting kMeet.

     

    Introduction

    • To approve participants, you must have moderator status.
    • To be a moderator, you must either be the first to connect or be designated later.
    • In general, a person generates a kMeet and will therefore be the moderator throughout the meeting.
    • However, if a meeting is created in the Infomaniak calendar, a kMeet link will be available to all event participants; it is therefore recommended that the event initiator log in a bit before the participants to set up their meeting (add a waiting room or a password etc.).

     

    Approve or deny participants

    To be a moderator:

    1. Start kMeet via kmeet.infomaniak.com or from one of the applications for computers or mobile devices.
    2. Click on the button to start a new meeting.
    3. Click on the dropdown arrow ‍ below to expand the advanced options.
    4. Enable participant control:
    5. Start the meeting.
    6. Share the meeting link or code and, if necessary, the password and/or encryption key with your participants.
    7. When your participants try to join the meeting, an audio notification prompts you to allow or deny them entry to the room.

    You can designate a participant as a new moderator during the meeting.

     

    Moderation options

    Other moderation options are available:

    1. Click on the â—‹â—‹â—‹ icon in the toolbar.
    2. Click on the icon â—‹â—‹â—‹ in the right sidebar:
    3. For example, choose to stop the video of all participants and access the settings from â—‹â—‹â—‹ at the bottom:
    4. The options allow you to manage the expected behavior when new participants connect:
      1. all participants start with the microphone muted
      2. all participants start with the camera off
      3. all participants have the same interface display as the moderator (display of such participant in large on the layout, etc.), modifiable at any time by users but the moderator can update at any time to force the follow-up
      4. reaction emojis do not make any sound
