With Peertube >= 5.0.0, this plugin try to use Websocket connection for chatting. If the user's browser or connection is incompatible, the browser will automatically fall back on the BOSH protocol. <br> But in rare case, this can fail. For example, if you have a reverse proxy in front of Peertube that does not allow Websocket connection for plugins. In this case, you can check this setting to disable Websocket connections.
By enabling this option, it will be possible to connect to rooms using external XMPP accounts and XMPP clients.<br> <span class="peertube-plugin-livechat-warning"> <b>Warning</b>, enabling this option can request extra server and DNS configuration. </span> Please refer to the documentation: <a href="https://johnxlivingston.github.io/peertube-plugin-livechat/documentation/admin/advanced/xmpp_clients/" target="_blank"> Enable external XMPP account connections. </a>
