How do I resolve audio or video issues?

Updated 2026-10-10

Most audio and video issues are device permissions, the wrong input, or a weak connection.

What to do

  1. Reload and allow the camera and microphone.
  2. Pick the correct devices in the live controls.
  3. Close other apps that are using the camera.
  4. Rejoin the session.

Eligibility

Jimvio cannot change hardware. Screen share can be black if the wrong window is chosen.

If something goes wrong

  • A muted operating-system input looks like a Jimvio bug.
  • VPN or blocked UDP can prevent the live connection.

If the room never becomes live, use the stream-fails article and include the browser name.
