Screen/Video sharing during the webinar

Screen/Video sharing during the webinar

When doing a webinar session being able to play a video would help present ideas better. As a speaker, EventX also made that available for you:

Once you enter backstage, you will find the share screen function at the bottom of the screen. Clicking that would give you an option to "Share screen" or "Share PDF"

Notes:
  • In preparation for your session, opening your videos in advance would help you quickly share the video and allow you to have a hassle-free presentation.
  • When sharing a screen during a webinar session, we suggest the host/speaker maintain a stable network condition (suggested upload bandwidth is 30 Mbps)
  • The host or speaker must avoid running other intensive applications on his computer.
  • When sharing a PPT presentation it is highly recommended to share the whole screen instead of a selected window or open the presentation view window first before choosing the screen to share 

Choose Share Screen.

3 ways to play a video using a Share screen:

  1. Share the entire screen.

    When you choose to share the entire screen you will be given a mirror image of everything you have on your screen.

    2. Share a Window

    Choosing this option allows you to share only a specific window available on your browser or videos which are currently open.

    3. Share a Chrome Tab

    This option allows you to share a specific tab from your chrome browser on PC / Mac.

    Note: When using this function, always remember to check Share Tab Audio at the bottom left.

    5) When prompted, click Quit Now. The change will not take effect and you will not be able to share your screen until you quit and restart your browser.
