Nextcloud Talk

MEETINGS
Velocity5.0

Self-hosted video calls, screen sharing, and chat platform integrated with Nextcloud collaboration suite.

nextcloud.com/talk ↗

Two parallel Talk lines: a 24.0 feature push in RC, a 22.0 stable stream in maintenance.

◆Current state
Nextcloud Talk (the spreed app) is the self-hosted voice, video, and chat layer of Nextcloud. The feed shows two branches moving at once: the 22.0 stable line churning out backport-heavy patch releases, and the 24.0 line working through release candidates. Recent 22.0 work is mostly call-reliability fixes (iOS audio mixing, camera constraints, media-device handling) and dependency bumps.
◆Where it's heading
The substantive feature bets landed earlier in the 24.0 beta — permanent call rooms, advanced noise suppression, calls from the avatar menu, conversation tagging — and the current releases are stabilizing them toward a stable cut. The 22.0 stream will keep receiving call and federation hardening in parallel. Momentum is on hardening real-time calling and SIP/federation edge cases rather than new surface.
◆Prediction
The 24.0 line looks headed for a stable release once the RC call and chat fixes settle, with the 22.0 stream continuing to receive backported reliability patches.

    v22.0.14: 30fps calls, chunked recording uploads, E2EE recording

    The most substantive of the recent 22.0 releases: bumps call FPS to 30 across quality levels, adds an external service for calls, enables chunked recording uploads, and allows recording E2EE calls. Real call-quality and recording gains rather than pure fixes.
