Hi Claude
My name is Paulo Sossa
I’ve seen you on the forums.
Loved you implementation of RedFire

I got my own setup, and it’s working great, mostly due the guidance
I’ve read from you.
I will be hiring you to implement a ClearSpace implementation for us,
but first I got to have a RedFire video chat demo running in order to
sell the idea to the bosses.
I really appreciate any help you can provide to get that Video Call
option up so I can get to the next level

Please see attachment. I can’t seem to be able to have that MAKE CALL
/ Video option to show up. Is there something i have to do in the
server panel do enable that?
I am desperate, I have been on this for 5 days straight, I just need a
little help…

Many thanks!

Hallo Paulo,

sorry I am not the developer of that plugin so I can hardly help you on that.
You can write an email to service@openmeetings.de to get a Developer on Consultant Based Contract for your project from our team.

Thank you Claude.
I fully understand you are super busy.
I am pretty sure this is just a little adjustment or setting I am missing
Please look at the attachments, see, mine doesn’t have the CALL user option
just the chat option
I just want to know if it’s related to Asterisk or something in the
Openfire server or another setting regarding red5
I am going crazy about it, I have read everything and I can’t seem to
get it to do video chat call

Please.

My company is called Quorah
www.quorah.com
(Online magazine, directory, classified ads, media-related)
I’m the CTO
we are based in London, with offices in Panama and in the USA

Paulo,

To enable call you need red5 plugin within Openfire.
I do not have asterisk and or SIP bridges on my config

Q :
-Do you have red5/openfire plugin installed(Within Openfire console) ? if yes which version ?
-Do you manage to do call with red5, do you get the red5 test page ?
-You could also test and validate red5 with spark Client and red5 plugin.

I do not have access to my servers from here so i cannot provide you more details.

Where are you from ??? Spain ???

Paulo,

To enable call you need red5 plugin within Openfire. (specifically where?)
I do not have asterisk and or SIP bridges on my config

  • So asterisk needs to be 100% ok for video calls to work?

Q :
-Do you have red5/openfire plugin installed(Within Openfire console) ?
latest 3.7.0
version ?
-Do you manage to do call with red5, do you get the red5 test page ?
RED5page YES
-You could also test and validate red5 with spark Client and red5 plugin.
Sparkweb client 100% except for making video calls

I do not have access to my servers from here so i cannot provide you
more details.

Paulo,

Thanks a lot for deep interest.
I could call you on thursday(Pls provide #) or Friday. I am currently on travel and very occupied with some big projects.

Some directions to search :

-Do you have such a page on your server : http://chat.free-solutions.ch/red5/red5.html ? that’s a good start

See attachments. You need to enable the Phone component(That’s probably the issue) in Openfire console/Red 5 settings as shown with attachments.
I do not run latest openfire and red5 so i do not know if this works with packages you run.

Good luck !

Claude

Thank you so much

Red5 test page = ok

I get the plugins list and all
I just not able to get screenshot 11 I have no way to get into that
even tho’ I do have the plugin install and working, I am going crazy!
Plugins are listed, I can see the read me, delete them or restart
them, no properties option.

Maybe something about the ports? 1935 & 7070 apart from 5222.

I can give you a call when you are back from your trip, say PM time on Friday?
I’m sorry to be a pain, I’m just desperate and I have no idea how to
finish now that I am stuck being completed 98%!

Paulo,

I just have a quick look to your server, great job… however

The Red5 Tab is missing like on mine see attachment. BUT i had a look at redfire Readme in the plugin section( http://216.70.70.79:9090/plugin-admin.jsp?plugin=redfire&showReadme=true&decorat or=none ) of your server
and it mention :

Configuration

  • Nothing to configure in the admin properties page

==> as i run an old version of red5 and Openfire could be the case that nothing is needed to configure within the console so RED5 tab could never appear

Possible solution : I did found on some releases some incompatibility red5 plugin and enterprise, monitoring or other ??? In such a case the red5 tab was missing in the console, seem very similar to issue you got.
So,
My suggestion is :
Try to run only redfire as pludin, rebuild a config with very minimal plugins and give a try. I would also like to update my openfire one of these days so i am interested to share findings then we could post “dele” he will be interested for sure.

Good luck, thanks in advance for updates if you find anything

Claude

Hi,

What is/was the outcome of this?

I am able to get A/V using the spark client and also wanted to test sparkweb with A/V but no options show up.

Do you have an update or am I missing it in this thread?

Thanks.

Anyone, it would be nice if someone took a moment to reply. I cannot imagine how anyone can use this very nice software without any help or input. Help.

A/V works fine in spark but the only option in sparkweb is to set the devices but there are no other options showing to actually initiate a video call.
