VIA Connect² – For User: Advanced Features
Connecting a Video Conferencing Device
When you conduct a video conference from your personal device, involving others in the
conference room can be limited because you are using the camera and microphone on your
device. VIA Connect² enables you to switch from using your device camera and microphone
to an external video conferencing device connected to VIA Connect², while still running the
conference on your device.
For information on enabling the audio for the external video conferencing device,
(see
Enabling Audio for VIA Versa Video Conferencing on page 92).
To set up a video conference from your personal device:
1. Run one of the following (available at www.kramerav.com/product/VIA Connect²
) on your
device and complete the installation wizard:
• For Windows OS – VIAVirtualCamera Windows Installer .msi file
• For Mac OS – VIAVirtualCamera installer package .pkg file.
2. Join the VIA meeting.
3. Launch a video conferencing app.
4. In the video settings of the video conferencing app select the camera device named
VIA
VirtualCam.
5. In the audio settings of the video conferencing app select the audio device named
VIA
Virtual Audio Device.
The video and audio for the video conference switches to the external video
conferencing device and you are ready to start a video.
Camera Switching (VIA 4.1 – For VIA Connect2)
1. If more than 1 camera is connected to the VIA gateway, VIA room device is activated
and hybrid session is initiated, the new camera toggle button will appear on the VIA app.
2. When the user clicks on the button, it will switch between the different cameras.
Remote users will see the switched camera instead of the previous one.
