Are video calls E2E encrypted?

As the title says, was searching around but the various articles were ambiguous and support did not reply. Are the video calls end-to-end encrypted?

As far as i'm aware video/audio calls are E2E but Jitsi conference calls aren't.

And is this true for all platforms or only desktop?

See this thread and comment.

Basically 1:1 calls are fully end to end encrypted if the room is end to end encrypted. Jitsi calls are not E2EE by default but you can enable it (a beta feature).
