Allow multiple video/camera feeds at same time in Live events
With everyone moving to remote these days, it's important for our executive team to provide the same sort of all-staff meeting experience. We currently use 3rd-party tools and want to use Teams, but the Q&A is a cumbersome experience AND our executive cannot each individually show their camera at the same time live as they are answering the questions that come in through the Q&A.
This seems like a gimme sort of feature, but I can't find it anywhere.

same here, without the option of having multiple speaker live at the same time we need to use Zoom or something else...

Please please please add this functionality, about to deliver our fist live event and it is an obvious missing feature!

it would be great to have more layout options for video/content to add 2 or more webcams to the live stream at once. makes the presentation more conversational!

This feature would be a great update to MS Teams, we need to have this as we often have multiple speakers delivering at the same time and it would be a great edition to Q&A so that you can see a face to a name. Please enable this feature. Thank you!

I totally agree! This feature needs to be enabled asap. During our all-hands calls it is expected to see all presenters live on webcam especially through the Q&A. Switching manually to the individual speakers isn`t sufficient as there is a delay which comes across very unprofessional.
Please kindly prioritize this matter! Many thanks, Melanie -

Would love to have this feature. There have been several occasions during a live event that it would have been beneficial to have 2 presenters videos up as part of a discussion to a Q&A. Instead have had to try and switch between videos resulting in a much more stilted answers. Totally ruins the flow of the event

More layouts are needed (even custom ones with branding.
Content queuing would be a game changer too. Or at least the ability to use PowerPoint Online as it would free presenters from sharing their own screen (if they figure it out...) -

Do we have an update on this one? It is desperately needed. The lack of this feature is driving us to use other platforms.

This really needs to be pushed to the top of the list as it is essential in order to use live events properly

This will be the one of the cons of teams live meeting, Requesting the developer to update this great feature integrated stacked by 3*3 screen layout for panel discussion,

We are trying to push Teams but have been told Blue Jeans will continue to be preferred as Teams does not support multiple presenters on the screen at the same time.
I am really surprised that this continues to be unsupported for so long now. -

This is one of the biggest limitations. We want to be able to use teams for our virtual conferences but due to panel and q&a sessions our events team refuse to use teams for this reason.

This would make life SO much easier for large townhall events

This is much needed where good number of panelists are debating on a particular point in a Live Event. Also if 2 or 3 panelists are responding to user question received through Q&A, participants should really understand who is responding to the question.

In addition we need: Send two videos and send content with two videos.

I absolutely want to use teams because it is generally superior to the other platforms but I am hosting a panel event where their could be quick back and forth between panellists. It will be distracting and a hassle for me as the producer to switch content every few seconds. I need to be able to show more than one screen at a time. I'm going to be forced to use Zoom even though I don't want to.

During this remote work, this has been a high want for my organization. We've been able to get by with showing one speaker at a time for our Live Events (which has been great for us), but we will be having a web series on racial injustice with multiple panelists and moderators, so this has become a NEED. We need to see all the speakers and panelists at the same time. Now, we have to research and use other platforms for this vital virtual conversation.

Deal killer for us. We were forced to purchase Zoom. Not having this feature made Live Events useless.

De fato esse recurso é muito importante. Alguma previsão?

This is becoming a real issue in our organisation now. We have made a big leap to come over to Teams and we're losing people to Zoom all over the place because this doesn't exist. We're having to do interviews with a massive delay, switching between two presenters each time a question or answer is given.
