Hey, what do you guys use to share videos and screen share to your friends or colleagues? I’m looking to self host a video/call server that runs on webrtc (maybe?) with a fairly easy client experience. Something like mumble but for videos. Any suggestions?

    I use sunshine/moonlight there is nothing as good as that.

    Both the server and client run in portable mode

    By default it will fullscreen and use relative mouse but use this command line to one-click start moonlight

    Moonlight.exe --display-mode windowed --absolute-mouse --resolution 1920x1080 stream yourserver.lan desktop

    Only little hiccup, the client need to pair with server before connecting, the client will give you a number and you type it in the sunshine management interface

      I often have performance issues with Jitsi (“video has been turned off to save bandwidth”). Might this be down to which instance I use? Perhaps it’s time to self-host.

      that’s great ! I never heard of it before but it checks all marks and I’ve also found an arch wiki page explaining the installation. Thank you !
