# Endpoint interface

TrueConf Videobar offers a user-friendly interface similar to TrueConf for Android TV. You can easily get started with the endpoint without a complicated on-boarding process. However, make sure to get familiar with some additional features, e.g., capturing content via HDMI.

# Home page

On the home page you can find the address of your device. You can share it with your contacts to start communication. To do this, you can use your smartphone or tablet’s camera to scan the QR code on your home page and forward the link to your friends or colleagues.

Your webcam video is used as a TrueConf Videobar background, which enables you to check on how you look on a video call beforehand. You can enter full-screen mode by pressing OK or using the Right Arrow button on your remote control. To exit full-screen mode, the back button.

On the left, you can find the main menu where you can:

# Address book

In the address book, you’ll see your contact list if you have filled it beforehand:

Your TrueConf Server administrator could also fill the address book for you in the TrueConf Server control panel.

# User profile

To view additional information about a user, select the user in the list and proceed to their profile. You’ll see the following information:

  • Full name

  • TrueConf ID
  • Status

# Blocking a user

Sometimes you may need to prevent some users from contacting you. To this end, you can add a user to the “black list” by pressing Block in their profile:

/docs/videobar/media/block_contact/en.png

Once you’ve done this, you can see the blocked user in your address book, make calls and invite them to your conferences, but you will be unable to send messages to this user. The blocked user won’t be able to call you, invite you to conferences and send you messages. To unblock a user, press the corresponding button in the user profile.

Blocked users will also be displayed on your “black list” when using TrueConf client apps for other platforms.

# Viewing your profile

If you’d like to view your personal information, proceed to the bottom of the device menu:

Press OK or use the Right Arrow on your remote control to go to your profile. If connected to TrueConf Server, you’ll see your TrueConf ID, company name and phone number (if specified):

In your profile, you can:

  1. Change your avatar by taking a picture with your webcam.

  2. Go to your personal area.

  3. Change the user account. In this case, the menu for entering TrueConf ID and password will open.

If you’re a TrueConf Online user, you’ll see your TrueConf ID and plan details:
