I've been really frustrated as of late with vMix Call. I'm sure many of my issues aren't directly the fault of vMix Call, but rather WebRTC, none the less these issues have forced me to go back to Skype.
The biggest issue I have is guests have a really tough time getting the call to connect. They just get a blue screen with the error "Unable to connect" and to check the firewall. This is rather confusing as sometimes connections work just fine, and other times, they fail completely, without anything being changed. For example, just today I was doing a vMix Call, and was able to connect on the first try, but then accidentally disconnected the call and I was not able to reconnect. I wish there was a better way to troubleshoot these connection issues to determine where the problem is. Whether the connection issues are with vMix Call, WebRTC, or our network (Verizon FiOS).
Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot these connection issues?

I had the same issues you are describing (guests getting blue screens, disconnecting, etc.) earlier today. Ended up reverting to Zoom to make things happen.

In addition to the Chrome issue I reported earlier today, I have been having no particular luck getting a good vMixCall connection.
I created a vMixCall input and sent the password to a guest.
He was able to use his Mac computer to log on, and the video was good. However, his audio was unintelligible... garbled.
He wasn't using a headset at the time, so that might have contributed, but it wasn't a simple echo.
So we tried a simple refresh of his browser and he was not able to reconnect. We tried a new vMixCall number and still no luck connecting. Then we tried it from a Windows machine.. same results.
We eventually gave up and went to Zoom. He has a pretty fast connection.
Any thoughts as to why we were having such trouble connecting?

Anybody experiencing connection issue, please drop us an email with the password to info@vmix.com.auWe have some diagnostics logging on the server end that we can use to identify the problem.

Martin,
My email to you was flagged as undeliverable (domain blacklisted).
Remote host said: 554 The IP Address of the sender (67.222.3.96) was found in a DNS blacklist database (BRBL) and was therefore refused.
How else should I send you the information?

I resent the email through a different server, hopefully it will get through.

Same issues on our show last Saturday, I found generating a new password would let the best in once but if they disconnected they couldn't get back in. Another guest said he just kept trying and trying and it eventually worked. Hope this is helpfull

Hi, We had a server issue yesterday that may have affected some callers connecting through, but this should now be resolved. In the other cases where we investigated the logs of problematic connections, we found a lot of cases where the vMix computer had multiple LAN connections enabled (wired + wifi etc) which was leading to the wrong IP trying to establish a connection to the caller. If users are having issues not covered by the above, please send the call passwords to info@vmix.com.auas it is usually easy to identify the cause. Thanks, Martin vMix
