How to show a presentation and prepare it in advance
Terminal TrueConf Group allows you to stream content in calls and conferences.
Preparing Presentations
To pre-select a content source for sharing, go to the Presentation section on the main screen.
The device selection menu is activated by pressing the Device selection button. Here, you can add network sources such as RTSP and VNC, and below, you'll see external devices connected via an HDMI cable to the capture card.
To connect external devices via HDMI, the appropriate equipment TrueConf Group is required.
You can also display content from a file. To do this, connect an external USB drive and click the Choose a file button. TrueConf Group supports presentations from USB drives with images in PNG, JPG, TIFF formats, PDF documents, and videos in MKV, MP4, TS formats.
The presentation audio is always output to the meeting room speakers. During a conference, the presentation sound is mixed with the microphone signal. Muting the microphone does not disable the presentation audio.
When an HDMI source is connected, the content will automatically be displayed on the screen. Depending on the settings, it can also be automatically shared in the conference.
