Warning 1 🚫 ❌ : Bug in UE 5.2 preventing Guests to join Meetings
| Note |
|---|
There appears to be an unidentified bug (only in Unreal Engine 5.2), potentially within the Unreal Engine's pixel streaming plugin or the Unreal Engine packaging Packaging process. |
This bug is preventing other customers from successfully joining
...
Meetings.
Only the first visitor (usually the
...
Host) can effectively participate in the
...
Meeting.
We are actively working to identify and implement a solution for this issue.
Once resolved, we will submit the fix to Epic Games for inclusion in Unreal Engine.
While this bug persists, we are designating the meeting Meeting system for UE 5.2 as an experimental beta versionBeta Version.
This means we cannot guarantee its consistent functioning.
From the link Link below, you can download a project source code Project Source Code which appears to always be working with UE 4.27 https://bitbucket.org/Eagle3DStreaming/e3dsfeaturestemplate/

The Meeting system is functional for UE 5.3. |
A workaround ✅
This is a workaround that a customer came up with, to get his meeting system Meeting System to work (using UE 5.2) and get the guests Guests to connect with him as a Host:
you need to join as a Guest exactly when the Host is loading their instance.
After it is fully loaded for the hostHost, no guest Guest can enter.
To put it in the steps, you need to:
Share the guestGuest's link with anyone who wants to join. It will tell them that the session has not been started by the host but it's okayHost.
You need to open the hostHost's link Link and wait until it will go through the queue.
The moment it shows the loading bar for the Host, every Guest should refresh the link Link and join the session simultaneously.
If there 's is anyone who was late to reload the page and the hostHost's application App has already started, there 's is no way to join after that.

The meeting system is functional for the UE 5.3 version. |
Warning 2 🚫 ❌ : App Versioning in Meeting Links
| Note |

App versioning in the |
...
Meeting Links is not supported by our system for UE 4.27 and all UE5.x |
If you choose a specific version Version of your applicationApp, for example v6 V6 and you generate a meeting Meeting URL from your Control Panel, you would see ‘'app version = 6’' in your Host and Guest meeting linksMeeting Links.
In that case, the meeting Meeting session would not start, (the Host would not see a list List of the guestsGuests) and the guests Guests would not be able to join the meeting Meeting either.
...
The guests Guests would get this message: ‘'No meeting Meeting found with that Guest meeting ID hosted by ‘'Username’'. Either meeting Meeting ended or not hosted yet. Retrying in x seconds.’'
