About attendee roles and broadcast capabilities
In a meeting, your broadcast capabilities are determined by your attendee role—participant,
presenter, or host, and whether participant broadcasting is enabled. The following table lists the
video and voice capabilities for each attendee role:
Setting up your camera and microphone
To broadcast audio, the broadcaster’s computer must have a microphone connected to it.
Similarly, to broadcast video, the broadcaster’s computer must have a video or web camera
connected to it. To set up your camera and microphone, you can use the following options:
Select Camera Select an input device for your video broadcasting.
Audio Setup Wizard Quickly set up and use your audio devices. You can test your headphone,
speakers, headset, or microphone to make sure they are turned on and set up for optimal
performance in a meeting with the Audio Setup wizard.
To select a camera:
1. Select Meeting > Select Camera from the Menu bar.
A Macromedia Flash Player Settings window opens, with the Camera tab selected.
2. Select the camera that you want to use from the Camera pop-up menu.
Note: If no camera is connected, a No Camera Found message appears instead of the Camera
pop-up menu.
