Viewing Live or Recorded Video

When watching a live or pre-recorded video, you are presented with the following options:

•   Snapshot: This feature allows you to capture a 2D or 360° image from the video being presented. This snapshot can then be saved and added to the Workspace assets. There are three snapshot options:
  • 2D Capture: Flat image that only captures your current on screen point of view
  • 360° Capture: 4K resolution 360° image that captures the entire viewable area of the camera

•  Spotlight: Allows for one remote participant to use their cursor as a visible pointer (orange circle), which is presented to all meeting participants (including the camera operator)
  
  

•   Show/Hide Guest POV: Enables you to view all other remote participant's point of view, indicated by grey circles

•   Notes: This allows you to pin a note anywhere on the snapshot. Notes are indicated by this icon

•   Share (Live Capture only): This will save your snapshot and notes to the Workspace assets and present it to all meeting participants
