The options for wireless content sharing, VC platforms, AV set-ups are richer and more advanced in the office meeting room. Of course, it’s far more productive to be in a hybrid meeting when surrounded by the right tools. And still, you experience frictions. Let’s look at some of the most common tech problems you can have conducting a hybrid meeting from a conference room.
What are the 4 most common frictions you experience?
You know the struggle with cables before you can start your hybrid meeting. The meeting room table is covered with different types of cables. Which is the right one to quickly get your videocall up and running and your content on screen? It is the HDMI, USB or UTP? Which one do you need for content sharing? And which one to use the room camera and speakers? You lose time fidgeting and waiting. Your stress levels rise. Other meeting participants get bored, are annoyed and tired of waiting for the videocall to start.
Ever had audio issues in your video call because you can only use the laptop speaker and microphone? It's hard to follow the in-room discussion remote when you just use the laptop’s microphone. And even in the meeting room the remote interactions can't be heard by all meeting participants when you only use the laptop speaker. Audio quality without using AV solutions sucks, to be honest.
Ever had video issues in your video call because you can only use the laptop camera for hybrid meetings? It's hard to see the in-room dynamics remote from the laptop camera angle alone, you only see the person in front of the laptop, not the other participants in the room. And also in the meeting room, you quickly forget about the remote participants because you can’t see them on the meeting room screen. A decent hybrid meeting with a laptop webcam? Forget it.
- Struggle with app settings
In your hybrid meeting, you often need to adjust the video & audio settings of your VC app to activate the room camera and speakers. You only use the laptop sound and video instead of those in the meeting room. Ever got lost in your video call app settings? What changes do you have to make and where can you access settings quickly? Mixing the room and your own laptop audio and video peripherals, makes the experience both in-room and remote difficult.
