Zoom has recently added the ability to use PowerPoint as a background to a presenter's video stream.

It would be a better user experience if attendees could see the powerpoint presentation and presenter as part of a single view- natively within the service. (I don't want to have to use a green screen.

Furthermore, background blur does not seem to be supported if you use Live Events.

Hi MS Teams,

I have been using the Live Event in Teams a lot.

There is one feature that would be helpful as a Producer.

It would be great to be able to mute the master audio out.

You could have the event live, with a holding slide broadcasting.

However, still be able to talk to the Presenters and Producers in the

back end, right up until you want to start presenting.

Is this something that may be added in the future?

Kind regards,

Mark

It would be great that admins could verify the anonymous external user’s name which was used when joining in Teams live event via mobile devices.

Green Screen Background Image For Video Calls

During meetings where presentations are required it would be highly appreciated if we had the possibility to both see the presentation, the presenter and other participants separately as larger streams in stead of the small stamp sized pictures

It could be done by being able to detach a specific stream to become a borderless windowed video overlay that can be placed on another screen and maximized if one has more than one monitor or a very large screen.

For Teams Live Events. It would be good to have a better assistant report, showing the total amount of time for each user.

Before starting live events, I would like to play a video or show some images with the message, “Please wait for the event” etc.

It would be great if Microsoft can provide the ability to have more screen layout templates in a Live Event. Eg. The ability to add a custom background with multiple speaker video screens on top with the Producer being able to customize the positioning of the Speaker/Presenter videos.

Can the video screen be floating so the other tools like messaging/chat can still be easily accessible and yet still have the video/presentation screen still visible or adjustable in the screen.

It would be nice to have a feature like Zoom has where you can hold down spacebar to unmute, and it mutes when released. You can make a quick comment without needing to click the mute button or use Ctrl+Shift+M. I understand that it might be to decrease accidental press of the spacebar, but I feel would be a much better shortcut.

Live Events produced within Teams have very limited customization capabilities. One common requirement is to add a background/corporate branding to the event. This is currently only possible by producing the event with a 3rd party encoder. It would be great if there was native capability to add a wallpaper/background to a Live Event produced via Teams, and then adjust the size of the layout to be slightly smaller for the other windows overlayed on top of it (e.g. cameras/screenshares).

When you're in the producer role in a live event, you are able to mute the presenters Mics however you can't unmute.

There should be a button to not just flat out unmute the presenter, but send a prompt to their screen to make them aware that they're muted and requests that they unmute their mic.

Being able to convert a currently scheduled teams meeting into a teams Live event or vice versa will eliminate the need to cancel and reschedule an item, condensing steps in making these calendar changes.

Hi,
It is necessary include an optional button to do a requirement for public access to our Teams live events, because we need to know how access to our teams live events.

I mean, we have configure our Teams Live events to public, but we need to know how access (identify how), so It will be nice an optional button to configure a Teams Live Event for name and email requirement for public people.

I attach an example of attende where we can’t know how access to out teams live event.

For a Teams Live Event where there are multiple presenters we would like the option of the view for the attendees to automatically change when a different presenter speaks, rather than requiring to queue up and manually change the speaker.

Please add French as a spoken language in Live Events.
