Allowing video-companion to be used with (password-less root) on Kicksecure & Whonix Workstation (but does anyone attach a webcam to a Whonix qube anyways?
I do. Why not?
BTW, does any of this relate to the issues discussed here:
Hi,
The other day I tried a video call with a friend. I am not experienced in that.
We both used Tox chat (qTox) as I thought it would be a much better alternative to the proprietary programs.
Before all that, I installed it in a Whonix Workstation template and when testing between 2 AppVMs everything seemed to work - I could see and hear myself in the receiving VM with a little delay (which seems normal as networking is not instant). The only issue was that I had to reduce the video quality …
I would also appreciate if someone can answer the answers in this post as well:
Thanks for the feedback. I am still not sure if we are discussing the same issue, as there is no BT involved in my case. I am also looking for a way to test directly, without network, first.
that is why I wrote this:
My problem is related to Bluetooth only by the way, not a “cabled” microphone, therefore it might not be the same issue for you.
I think your issue is slightly different, but still can have the cause in the quantum value. Only way to know for sure is trying
Thanks.
