Hide local video in tile view mode

[calamatitech]

I builded my own Jitsi Meet Server with success, making some changes too.
I would like to hide the local partecipant video from the the video grid displayed (and the vertical filmstrip is not shown) when I press the button “Toogle tile view”.
Can someone help me?

I would like to have this feature on user side as well.

If you don’t mind hacking the CSS a bit, you can set:

.tile-view #localVideoTileViewContainer {
  display: none;
}

Change Text on Initial Page (Home)

You can do this using CSS, if you want. See this reply Change Welcome Page Text after quick install I will add that a much better approach using this technique is to override the CSS in your own file, not modify the all.css file. Here is how you do this. 1 - Edit the “body.html” file (It’s blank on fresh installs) sudo vi /usr/share/jitsi-meet/body.html _ 2 - Add references to your own CSS and JS. <script src="custom.js?v=1"></script><link rel="stylesheet" href="css/custom.css?v=1"> _ 3 …

Hey etlweather,
could you tell me where you pasted the style?
I tried in /usr/share/jitsi-meet/css/all.css
an even made the none!important;
but it’s not working for me.

I added my own css file (custom.css) and added a link at the top of the index.html just under the all.css link. Of course that isn’t going to survive an update but it’s easy to put back in.

Thanx a lot for the tip.
