    Im following matrix dev work very closely so im wondering if you have been trying the old call system (jitsi or 1:1 calls) or the new one (element call). the new one should work well for screensharing video but ofcourse you do have some level of compression artifacts. the element-desktop client should have it enabled by default since a few version ago. You can quickly test it out here without an account too https://call.element.io/

    For noise removal it just uses the standard webrtc noise filtering stack afaik which does suck, but i have it disabled and do that kind of audio filtering systemwide on my linux machine with easyeffects.

      I’m not seeing an option for element call, there’s just p2p for 1:1 calls option which I have enabled. easyeffects mutes my audio completely and I have to timeshift to get it back 😅

        Maybe you have to enable something for the video calls in the “Labs” section of the settings but i dont think so. Its just an embedded version of the instance hosted by element.io so it should be functionally the same if you try that one in the browser.

        This is how i have it set up

        EasyEffects works well for me on debian but on a different distro with different audio setup it might not be such a smooth experience. 🤷
