[PLUG] Using meet.jit.si

[Russell Senior]

There are a lot of keyboards and a lot of chairs on the internet. As Tomas
mentioned, we've been using meet.jit.si successfully for a couple months,
so there's a proof-of-existence that it can work just fine. That suggests
to me that the round hole in Rich's foot is self-inflicted. From his
description, it sounds like (wild guess based on the sparse information
provided) he disallowed giving the browser access to his microphone at some
point. That's where I'd be looking if my microphone didn't work. The other
thing I'd be interested in is whether his audio jack even supports a
microphone. There is some diversity in whether the microphone jack is
integrated with the headphone (4 contacts on the plug) or with a separate
jack. So, does the microphone work in the jack using some other
application? If not, that'd be his problem right there.
