    @peertube My firewall is setup to filter all of my browser connections. When I visit a website I only allow its base and subdomains.
    When watching a video on a Peertube instance, my browser sends requests to peers on completely random ports (in the high range) which means watching a popular video triggers and endless chain of firewall dialogs. Why the random ports? I wish I could just open port xxx and be done with it...

      @mrfry That's how WebRTC works, nothing we can do on this topic unfortunately.

        @peertube Thank you for the quick response and link. Not what I wished for but at least I know where I stand 🙂

          @mrfry Viewers (including without accounts) can manually disable the P2P function in the settings, which will avoid using WebRTC.
