Jitsi BRoadcasting Infrastructure

Jibri "Audio Only" (Docker version instructions)

This build is an exact copy of the original Jibri Java executable minus the video recording options of the embedded ffmpeg

What is Jibri

Jibri provides services for recording or streaming a Jitsi Meet conference.

It works by launching a Chrome instance rendered in a virtual framebuffer and capturing and encoding the output with ffmpeg. It is intended to be run on a separate machine (or a VM), with no other applications using the display or audio devices. Only one recording at a time is supported on a single jibri.

Replacing Jibri with the "Audio Only" build

To use this custom build you just need to replace the jibri.jar file inside the "/opt/jitsi/jibri/" folder inside the Docker Jitsi container, you can replace the file using Dockerfile or by mounting a volume inside the docker-compose file (normally: jibri.yml)

volumes:
    - ./jibri/custom-jibri.jar:/opt/jitsi/jibri/jibri.jar

Need to modify the build?

Just clone the repo, make your changes and then from the root folder launch the command "mvn package" (after installing apache maven)

You'll find the .jar file inside "$CLONED-REPO-DIR/target" folder as "jibri-X.x-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar"
