Introduction
TrueConf Weathervane Tasks
TrueConf Weathervane automatically directs cameras and switches video streams. The purpose of the program is:Capture a video stream from a camera that is best positioned for tracking an active speaker during video conferences;
Automate the interactions of multiple video sources.
The TrueConf Weathervane application is intended to be used with TrueConf Room version 3.1 and above (for switching the image displayed on its output) and/or with a matrix switcher. The positions of the cameras and the switcher that are switched between are called presets.
When switching presets, TrueConf Weathervane can be controlled by conference system signals (such as turning microphones on/off) and/or by command parameters transmitted when accessing the program. Additionally, you can manually manage the switching through the application's graphical interface.
