Presenter modes on Video Based Screen Sharing (VBSS) (Screen or Window sharing) in Meetings enables immersive presentations on Teams meetings merging video and content on the stage. This new feature will allow presenters to decide how they will be shown with respect to the content.
- In Standout mode, they will be able to choose to appear on the left or right and adjust the overlayed video feed size to customize for each type of presentation!
- Flexible arrangement and customization of their location on Reporter and Side-by-side modes will also allow for the content size to change according to the presenter’s video size.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 88566.
Presenter mode video controls enable presenters to move and resize presenter video feed and automatically adjusts content size accordingly. This can be applied to all modes on Desktop or Window sharing including standout, side-by-side, and reporter.
When this will happen
- Standard: We will begin rolling out in early April and expect to complete by late April.
- Government: We will begin rolling out in early May and expect to complete by late June.
How this will affect your organization
The presenter modes preview window will have new buttons for changing the layout customization. The customizations will remain in case the presenter closes the window.
What you need to do to prepare
You might want to notify your users about this new capability and update your training and documentation as appropriate.
