For meetings where you need to keep track of certain participants.
Mark participants as VIPs and have their video tiles sorted to the front.
Installation
Drag the following link into your browser’s bookmark bar: VIP
To inject the script click the link in the bookmark bar while the Jitsi Meet tab is active. The effects only last until the next page reload.
Usage
Once the hack is loaded your video will be reordered to the top (upper left). You can mark other participants as VIP by selecting “Toggle VIP status” in the popup on their video tile. VIPs will be reordered to the top as well.
The display names of VIPs are saved to the browser’s local storage. Participants with those names will be marked as VIP automatically the next time the hack is loaded.
Limitations
This script currently doesn’t work together with the reorder video tiles hack.
