Meet TrueConf Room 5.0, the latest update of our meeting room software. The new version features support for AirPlay technology, advanced layout management capabilities, the ability to stream two video streams from the meeting room, and many other improvements and changes.
List of supported operating systems
- Microsoft Windows 7 SP1+
- Debian 11
- Debian 12
- Ubuntu 22.04
- Ubuntu 24.04
AirPlay support
Users of Apple devices can now easily share content to a conference using AirPlay wireless data technology. This can be any media content from compatible applications or device screen sharing.
You just need to enable Airplay in the control panel Settings — Tools — General. Optionally, you can also set up a password for connection with the video conferencing endpoint.
Layout with a single window
In the 5.0 update, we’ve introduced a single-window video layout similar to TrueConf desktop apps. Thus, one large window with the speaker or content is displayed in the conference, hiding other participants from the layout.
How to enable? In the conference control panel, click the Change layout button, and then select the layout type with a single window 
by clicking on the corresponding button.
Automatic transfer of content to an additional screen
We have simplified the work with the secondary screen — TrueConf Room users can now set up automatic display of speakers or content on it.
How to enable? Go to the control panel Settings — Preferences — Conferences and Calls and configure the automatic output parameters in the “Automatic layout change” section.
If both parameters are active for one screen at the same time (voice-activated switching and auto spotlight of the content window), then the window that was last active will be displayed (speaker switching or starting the content sharing).
Configuring the conference interface
In the Conferences and calls settings, you can now enable or disable the speaker’s highlight frame, select its color, and adjust the spacing between video windows.
Widget with a speaker
We have added a special widget which displays the active speaker with the disabled camera.
How to enable? In the Сonferences and calls settings, you need to enable the “Hide participants without a video in the layout” and “Display the widget of hidden participants without a video slot in the layout” options
Streaming of two video streams
In the new version, we have added the ability to simultaneously stream two video streams from a PC with installed TrueConf Room. This allows you to display an image from two cameras or share content along with the camera image.
How to enable? Click the 
button in the TrueConf Room control panel and select the source for the second video stream in the pop-up window.
If the button for additional stream setting is not displayed in the control panel, you need to enable the additional stream in the conference in the settings of TrueConf Room Services add-in (
Settings application)
New branding features
In TrueConf Room 5.0, we’ve added the ability to set your own logo on the splash screen. In the settings of the main screen, you can upload any SVG image.
Besides, users can now replace the background of the video area in video conferences. You can upload BMP, JPG, JPEG or PNG images.
Other changes and improvements
- The quality of the transmitted video for the video source selected as the Content source has been enhanced
- We’ve added the ability to search among users of federated video conferencing servers in the address book
- The list of conference participants now displays reactions sent by users
- When sharing content using a capture card, the video conferencing endpoint now automatically exits stand-by mode
