    No audio calls

    They added that recently (element-call audio only i mean) its the phone icon at the top

    I think the video call rooms (always open channels) remember your preference but im not sure rn

      I don’t see that. Video, Threads, Room Info, People is all I have at the top of my rooms.

        Thats weird? What version of element-desktop are you on? If its element-web it could be that your server is running a slightly outdated version.

          Its only available in DMs not groupchats

          Oh right, nice catch. Yeah I only use it as a Discord alternative, so no audio calls for me yet.

          Anyway, audio calls in that way aren’t quite what I’m after anyway. They’ll work. They’ll do the job. Just like the existing video calls with webcams turned off do the job. But the Discord style chat room with an assumption of audio only on voice detection, with robust screensharing (including PC audio!) capabilities in an otherwise audio-only call is what I’m really after.
