LIVE QUESTION & ANSWER
Can we make guest audio controls persistent? Or move out the way so we can see what’s happening?
- Maybe we could look at slider on the tiles for each user?
- Be good to control audio on the fly without opening window
- Thanks for the feedback
How can we avoid audio echo feedback / loop when using 2nd devices in same location?
- Far enough apart to not pick up each others audio
- Mute all those mics not in use
- Could have two cameras in two tabs on Streamyard (so you can mute tab & mic in that tab?
Can we share audio files like we do video files?
- Not at the moment
- You can use an audio mixer like Rodecaster etc to do this
- If not a hardware device you could use software like

- You would need to resize windows for this

We are talking to them about this. - How are you using this?
If host has guest and internet drops out how long will stream stay live in Linkedin?
- If streaming with a guest – the stream will stay open
- If there is no guest or everyone leaves then it would close after about 5-10 minutes
If using iPad for Streamyard, how could I share a large video file?
- If you can prepare it before hand , then upload to Streamyard
- You could then play from Streamyard dashboard when needed
Can we have guests seeing each other backstage?

- Not active right now though
Can we make it easier for guest 6 to get the hosts attention?
- We are working on improving this
- We know with busier back stages it needs more consideration
Can we let guests communicate in the green room with producer
- Not at the moment other than through private chat
- Considering this though as more people doing events
