# During the meeting

# Content sharing

With TrueConf Videobar 015 and TrueConf Videobar 025, you can share content during a video call or a group conference. To this end, you need to connect a device that transmits content via HDMI, e.g., you can connect a laptop to the endpoint and show slides.

To start sharing content, you should do the following:

  1. Before or right during a conference, connect the device to the HDMI in port.

  2. If necessary, enable content transmission via HDMI.

  3. After that, your device’s content will be displayed in your video window (instead of your camera video).

  4. You can switch between content sharing options using the Switch camera/content button on the remote control or the conference menu item /docs/videobar/media/gui/change_camera_button/en.png.

# Mirroring your screen to the second monitor

If you need to mirror the screen to the second monitor, use the HDMI out 1 port. In this case, the image displayed on the main screen will be completely duplicated on the additional screen.

Please note that HDMI out 1 on TrueConf Videobar 010 and TrueConf Videobar 015 endpoints does not support the output of audio streams.

# Viewing chat messages

If you would like to exchange messages during a video meeting, press any of the Arrow keys on the remote control and press the button /docs/videobar/media/gui/chat_button/en.png. In this case, you can choose a group chat during a video conference or personal chat with a specific participant.

# Adding users to the address book

You can add a user to your address book right during a conference. To that end, you need to:

  1. Open the list of participants in the conference menu.

  2. Select a user and go to their profile.

  3. Go to the User Information menu.

  4. Press Add.

# Managing your microphone and camera

To mute your microphone:

  1. During a conference, press the Turn off microphone button on the remote control or go to the conference menu and press the mute button /docs/videobar/media/gui/mic_on/en.png.

  2. The button will be crossed out /docs/videobar/media/gui/mic_off/en.png.

Similarly, you can turn on/off the video feed sent to the conference by pressing the disabled camera button on the remote control or the camera button /docs/videobar/media/gui/video_on/en.png in the conference menu.

# External webcams

During a conference, you may need to switch between various webcams. With TrueConf Videobar, you can connect additional cameras via available USB ports.

To switch between your cameras during a video call or a conference, use the conference menu item /docs/videobar/media/gui/change_camera_button/en.png.

# Additional settings

Use the /docs/videobar/media/gui/settings_button/en.png button to proceed to the additional menu. Here you can:

  1. Switch between cameras, microphones and speakers if you have multiple devices connected.

  2. Enable automatic anti-flickering filter.

  3. Change the camera angle for compatible webcams.

  4. Adjust volume level.

  5. Configure echo cancellation (auto, on or off).
