Overview

Nextcloud Talk

A video & audio conferencing app for Nextcloud

Why is this so awesome?

💬 Chat Nextcloud Talk comes with a simple text chat, allowing you to share or upload files from your Nextcloud Files app or local device and mentioning other participants.
👥 Private, group, public and password protected calls! Invite someone, a whole group or send a public link to invite to a call.
💻 Screen sharing! Share your screen with participants of your call. You just need to use Firefox version 66 (or newer), latest Edge or Chrome 72 (or newer, also possible using Chrome 49 with this Chrome extension).
🚀 Integration with other Nextcloud apps like Files, Calendar, User status, Dashboard, Flow, Contacts and Deck, with more to come.
🎡 We’re not reinventing the wheel! Based on the great simpleWebRTC library.
🌉 Sync with other chat solutions With Matterbridge being integrated in Talk, you can easily sync a lot of other chat solutions to Nextcloud Talk and vice-versa.

More in the works for the coming versions.

If you have suggestions or problems, please open an issue or contribute directly :)

Installing for Production

Nextcloud Talk is really easy to install. You just need to enable the app from the Nextcloud App Store and everything will work out of the box.

There are some scenarios (users behind strict firewalls / symmetric NATs) where a TURN server is needed. That's a bit more tricky to install. You can find instructions in our documentation and the team behind the Nextcloud VM has developed a script which takes care of everything for you (vm-talk.sh). The script is tested on Ubuntu Server 18.04, but should work on 16.04 as well. Please keep in mind that it's developed for the VM specifically and any issues should be reported in that repo, not here.

Here's a short video on how it's done.

Scalability

Talk works peer to peer, that is, each participant sends an end-to-end encrypted stream to every other participant and receives one stream per other participant. Bandwidth usage grows with the number of participants.

A single video stream currently uses about 1 Mbit/sec and the total required bandwidth can be calculated as follows:

1 Mbit/s * (participants - 1)

This means that in a call with 5 participants, each has to send and receive about 4 Mbit/sec. Given the asymmetric nature of most typical broadband connections, it's sending video that quickly becomes the bottleneck. Moreover, decoding all those video streams puts a big strain on the system of each participant.

To limit and CPU bandwidth usage, participants can disable video. This will drop the bandwidth use to audio only, about 50 kbit/sec (about 1/20th of the bandwidth of video), eliminating most decoding work. When all participants are on a fast network, a call with 20 people without video could be doable.

Still a call creates a load on the participants' browsers (decoding streams) and on the server as it handles signaling. This, for example, also has consequences for devices that support calls. Mobile device browsers will sooner run out of compute capacity and cause issues to the call. While we continuously work to optimize Talk for performance, there is still work to be done so it is not unlikely that the bottleneck will be there for the time being. We very much welcome help in optimization of calls!

How to have the maximum number of participants in a call

To make sure a call can sustain the largest number of participants, make sure that:

each participant has a fast upload and download.
each participant has a fast enough system. This means:
- on a desktop/laptop system, a browser like Firefox or Chrome should be used. The WebRTC implementation in other browsers is often sub-par. On a laptop, the power cord should be plugged in - this often results in better CPU performance.
- on mobile devices, the Android/iOS apps should be used because mobile browsers will run out of computing power quickly.
all participant disables their video streams.

With this setup, 20 users should be possible in a typical setup.

Scaling beyond 5-20 users in a call

Nextcloud offers a partner product, the Talk High Performance Back-end, which deals with this scalability issue by including a Selective Forwarding Unit (SFU). Each participant sends one stream to the SFU which distributes it under the participants. This typically scales to 30-50 or even more active participants. Furthermore, the HPB setup also allows calls with hundreds of passive participants. With this number of participants is only limited by the bandwidth of the SFU setup. This is ideal for one-to-many streaming like webinars or remote teaching lessons.

The HPB also takes care of signaling, decreasing the load of many calls on the Talk server and optional SIP integration so users can dial in to calls by phone.

If you need to use Talk in an enterprise environment, contact our sales team for access to the Talk High Performance Back-end. See our website for more details and pricing.

Development Setup

Simply clone this repository into the apps folder of your Nextcloud development instance.
Run make dev-setup to install the dependencies.
Run make build-js.
Then activate it through the apps management. 🎉
To build the docs locally, install mkdocs locally: apt install mkdocs mkdocs-bootstrap.

We are also available on our public Talk team conversation, if you want to join the discussion.

API documentation

The API documentation is available here.

Milestones and Branches

Branches

In the Talk app we have one branch per Nextcloud server version. stable* branches of the app should always work with the same branch of the Nextcloud server. This is only off close to releases of the server, to allow easier finishing of features, so we don't have to backport them.

Milestones

10.0.0 - Numeric milestones are settled and waiting for their release or some final polishing
💛 Next Minor (20) - The next minor milestone is for issues/PR that go into the next Dot-Release for the given Nextcloud version (in the example 20 - e.g. 10.0.1)
💚 Next Major (21) - The next major milestone is for issues/PR that go into the next feature release for the new Major Nextcloud version (as there are Minors for 20, this would be 21)
💔 Backlog - The backlog milestone is assigned to all remaining issues

You can always pick a task of any of the milestones and we will help you to get it into the assigned milestone or also an earlier one if time permits. It's just a matter of having an overview and better visibility what we think should be worked on, but it's not exclusive.

Useful tricks for testing

Disable camera until reboot: sudo modprobe -r uvcvideo
Re-enable camera: sudo modprobe uvcvideo
Send fake-stream (audio and video) in Firefox:
1. Open about:config
2. Search for fake
3. Toggle media.navigator.streams.fake to true

Nextcloud Talk is really slow when using HTTP2
Steps to reproduce

Install Nextcloud Talk App from the appstore in the browser

User A starts a chat with User B, both registered on the same Nextcloud server

Messages take up to 20 seconds to be delivered

Also replies from User B to User A need up to 20 seconds to be delivered

Expected behaviour

I expect messages to be delivered nearly instantaneuously

Actual behaviour

Nextcloud Talk feels slow and laggy. User A opens a chat with User B in his Browser. There is a constant loading circle around User A, as if he cannot join the session. User B is invited. Chat messages from both users take up to 20 seconds to send/receive.

TURN-TLS support

It seems you only support UDP and TCP. However there is another transport mechanism called TURN-TLS, which wraps the whole thing into another TLS layer. This should be the last fallback for ugly company firewalls or so, which do deep package inspection and block non-HTTPS traffic on port 443.

Add listable scope attribute for conversations
Related issue

Fixes https://github.com/nextcloud/spreed/issues/1763

Description

Added ability to set a conversation as listable for regular users and/orguest users from the guest app. This means those users will be able to search for those rooms and join them even if they haven't joined before.

Todos

[x] add new conversation property (mostly copy-pasted from read-only)

[x] DB migration for new property

[x] backend endpoint to set property

[x] settings frontend

[x] ~~detect guest app in UI~~ => obsolete ?

[x] search provider impl

[x] impl

[x] implement search results code based on listable flags

[x] show listable only in search results, not regular list

[x] filter by scope (regular user vs guest)

[x] backend endpoint "/listed-room"

[x] frontend

[x] allow joining listable conversations

[x] unit tests

[x] SystemMessageTest

[x] SystemMessage/ListenerTest

[x] RoomController, Manager, ParticipantService => cover with integration test ?

[x] ~~ListedConversationSearch (if we agree to keep it)~~ removed

Issues

[x] BUG: somehow the dialog always shows "Everyone" by default

[ ] sort out todos in LeftSidebar

[x] use ConversationsList ?

[ ] sort out "no search results" case, currently nothing appears if no results

[x] optional: cancel search when continuing to type? => later in https://github.com/nextcloud/spreed/pull/4742

[x] implement recognizing guest users (see FIXMEs and TODOs)

Testing

[x] verify that cli + defaults there work correctly

[x] test direct join to private listed room when knowing the URL

[x] test join via left sidebar

[ ] test join via global search result

[x] test with guest users from guest app

[x] test perms

[ ] integration tests (see read-only ones)

[x] only moderators can change listable property

[x] can join room when knowing URL

[x] when listed + private (+ system message visible)

[x] when listed + public (+ system message visible)

[x] when non-listed + public (+ system message NOT visible)

[x] cannot join room when non-listed and private

[x] listed rooms of public and private types appear in search results from "/listed-rooms" API, with search term

[x] ~~listed rooms of public and private types appear in search results from global search API, with search term~~ => removed

Open topics

[x] clarify if flags concept was correct, see https://github.com/nextcloud/spreed/issues/1763#issuecomment-736021636 => adjusted to be a scope, not bitmask any more

[x] unsure if "all" state is a good idea in regards to extensibility => obsolete

[x] instead of checkbox, use dropdown for a single-shot choice ? => obsolete

[x] USER vs USER_SELF_JOINED, see https://github.com/nextcloud/spreed/pull/4706#issuecomment-739883178

[x] add listable field already in creation dialog ?

[ ] review discuss the UX concept as the current idea of listable x public/private is already very confusing

[ ] might need yet another visual indicator in the list to show listed rooms vs non-listed (for moderators to know).

[x] ~~should we forbid joining listable rooms when calling "/active" endpoint if version used is not v3 ?~~ => no

[x] password is only asked if not alowed to join a listed room resulting in USER_SELF_JOINED instead of USER, is this ok ?

[x] should we remove listed conversations from the global search ? => yes, as discussed. they'd cause too much noise there.

[x] should we force passing in a search term in the "listed-room" API ? or listing all is fine on API level ?

A large user base prevents the app from loading properly
The page hangs while the user list is being built. After a while Firefox reports that the browser is being slowed down and offers to stop loading. If you wait long enough the page eventually loads. Starting a new user search causes the same problem.

We have around 2000 users in the database

Talk crashes the entire instance when doing public meetings.
Steps to reproduce

install Talk

Share Link

Entire instance slows down then crashes

Expected behaviour

Calls happen

Actual behaviour

Entire instance becomes ultra-slow on any operation. Restarting App container gets the performance back to normal. Netdata does not report any high CPU usage, iowait, or network issue. The intance just borks and ends up throwing a 502 error.

Are you using an external user-backend, if yes which one: LDAP/ActiveDirectory/Webdav/...

LDAP configuration (delete this part if not used)

With access to your command line run e.g.:
sudo -u www-data php occ ldap:show-config
from within your Nextcloud installation folder

Without access to your command line download the data/owncloud.db to your local
computer or access your SQL server remotely and run the select query:
SELECT * FROM `oc_appconfig` WHERE `appid` = 'user_ldap';


Eventually replace sensitive data as the name/IP-address of your LDAP server or groups.

Spreed/Talk possibly not HTTP/2 compatible

Hi Dev-Team!

It seems that NC Talk isn't HTTP/2 compatible? It only works for me when i turn off HTTP/2 on my webserver. On any form of client with any browser or the Talk Android app.

Specs of my server: NC13 RC2 Talk App 3.0.1

Debian 9.3 (Stretch) Apache 2.4.25 MariaDB 10.1.26 PHP 7.0.27 No special STUN server or so, everything default

Settings i have to comment out in the sites-available conf-file that it works: <VirtualHost *:443>

Protocols h2 http/1.1

H2Push on H2PushPriority * after H2PushPriority text/css before H2PushPriority image/jpeg after 32 H2PushPriority image/png after 32 H2PushPriority application/javascript interleaved ...

I also tried disabling the different H2Push options or all of them, but no success.

Discussion: Jitsi Integration
Jitsi Integration would be very useful since it is a well established, fully open source videoconferencing tool also built on WebRTC + XMPP #826 as described here via Videobridge.

Would be an excellent integration, which includes a number of improvements requested for Talk. Forum discussion on help.nextcloud here.

Easily join or create a registration-free session on https://meet.jit.si/

Related issues #328 #21 #1056 #2458 #3106 #3151 e2e encryption #37 and external api for sip bridging only offered in MCU #40. Is the MCU itself built with Jitsi?

Notifications no longer work if there are more than 17 participants in the group chat ( - 17 users it is ok )

Hello,

everything had been working for 3 months, now for two days all the groups with more than 17 users (I tested well, at 18 users the problem begins!) no longer have active notifications. 17 Users we receive notifications on Ios and Android, 18 users and notifications stop. Messages are sent and received but users are not notified of messages. My server uses TURN / HPB signaling server, and I repeat it all worked before with 80 users..

Nextcloud: 25.0.1 ios and android app: last version Spreed: last version

Log level: 0 (no error in the nextcloud.error)

Integrate with a hardware conference room solution
How to use GitHub

Please use the 👍 reaction to show that you are interested into the same feature.

Please don't comment if you have no relevant information to add. It's just extra noise for everyone subscribed to this issue.

Subscribe to receive notifications on status change and new comments.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I'm always frustrated when I can not use our existing conference room hardware natively with Nextcloud Talk. The meeting organisator has to sacrifice his personal laptop and hook it up via HDMI when he chooses Nextcloud Talk for a hybrid meeting.

Because auf this, Nextcloud Talk is getting neglected by meeting organisators. They prefer Teams, Zoom or Google Meetup. Here, the conference room hardware can take care of everything and the meeting organisator can just walk into the room and press "join meeting" on the conference hardware touchscreen.

Describe the solution you'd like The ability to integrate with a hardware conference room solution of any vendor, e.g. Logitech or Polycom.

To be specific, with Teams, Zoom or Pexip integration for Polycom I can create a meeting and select a time and a room. When I enter the room ~15 minutes before the meeting starts, the Polycom touchscreen already shows a big button to join the scheduled meeting.

Describe alternatives you've considered Enterprise solutions like Teamsor Zoom.

Additional context The end result looks like this:

Clarify if recording store should use HPB or SIP

The upload is done by the HPB, not the SIP bridge, right? @danxuliu So I guess we need to use the getSignalingSecret here in the end. However that shows that the method is independent from "SIP" and should maybe have a neutral name and home (HelperService ?)
