Quick Jibri Installer 6.0
Unfortunately, these changes were not compatible with version 5 of our installer, so after 2 weeks of intense work we have released version 6.0 of our installer that resolves various installation details in the sense
We consider that the most important change with this release is that support for Ubuntu 16.04 ends .
Continuing with Bionic (18.04) and Focal (20.04) as the supported versions.
So with a new interface, great improvements in the efficiency of the platform and better resolutions, Jitsi Meet 2.0.5765 is currently the best version available on platforms based on free software.
Remember that if you want to use the version available online free of charge, you can use it on the site offered by the Jitsi Meet team and 8×8, Inc. at meet.jit.si,
On the other hand, if you require a customized solution through self-hosting, we invite you to give QJI 6.0 a test.
We appreciate the trust of customers who request installation, maintenance or migration services, which help keep the development of the Quick Jibri Installer active.
