Hello Michael,
It is very likely an issue on your end.
That said, by now I am used to deal the most common quirks of Jitsi on the client's end (and some of the server end as well, but that's another discussion).
If you experience issues next time, please send me a private message, an e-mail to alberto@abrao.net, or just a text message to - or call - 204-558-6886. I am always curious to have more info on my book of troubleshooting for Jitsi, so I will be happy to work with you on this!
Kind regards, Alberto Abrao

Hi Everyone --
Hi Michael.
Am I the only one who had a jitsi failure last night?
Likely not... We typically get some attendees who have audio or video issues, bandwidth issues or something. Problems are usually not at the Jitsi server end, but usually something local to specific users. Sometimes, it's related to the web browser. (I've occasionally had weird video output/display issues with Jitsi in Chrome, and have now made it a habit to restart Chrome before signing into a Jitsi meeting.) Sometimes it's a system-level issue, and the only solution is a reboot.
After a bit of a struggle just to log in, there was no way I could get the audio to work. I've never had a problem for previous meetings. Too bad I'm not a lip reader. I could see them moving.
See above. Not sure what browser you were using, but my first suggestion would be to restart the browser, then try to connect again. If the problem persists, try a different browser, then look for hardware or OS issues. (Try other apps to see if the same problem is there, or not. Try system settings, try a reboot, or full power-down and restart.)
Was our attendance lower that what might be expected?
Similar to the last couple months, I think. (More or less...)
While I'm here: it's dues-paying time for me. Do we have inteac e-transfers set up for our banking. I could make the direct deposit and avoid any fees being charged to MUUG.
Yes, we do now accept Interac e-Transfers! Details can be found here...
