If I understand the situation correctly
There is solution since version 2.0.0 (if I'm not mistaken)
As moderator you can click at video-pod of any user and let this user to be
the only speaker (this feature has name Exclusive audio)
Additionally there is Hot key for this listed here
https://openmeetings.apache.org/GeneralConfiguration.html (
mute.others.keycode)
And there should be special icon in case there is no video-pod, just audio
:)

There was proposal like this already:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENMEETINGS-1904
But, I'm afraid, the only realistic way to achieve some interactivity on WB
would be to create some sort of "plugable WB" and provide detailed
instruction how WB plugin can be created
Not sure if I have time and will to work on this :( (this looks to me as
some monster task :(( )

Re: External camera

[Maxim Solodovnik]

Hello Sangeeta,

I don't have any estimation at the moment, such possibility have to be
investigated first
My intent was to try to implement SIP support first, but maybe I can handle
this one as well, not sure

Re: How to set recording off for all rooms including permanent and temporary

[Maxim Solodovnik]

AFAIK there is no such option
you can make it "effectively disabled" by setting bad permissions to
data/streams folder
But, I guess, this is not the way you are looking for

Mute all users... and some more

[Denis Noctor]

Hi there guys, I am using the previous version of OM prior to the current 
upgrade... which will probably solve my issue... but just in case...

I am in a rare situation where some of my users are in the same office 
environment... and as a result there is the obvious sound / audio feedback. 
They are using multiple devices so my natural recommendation would be to “mute 
all users”... except me... when I want to speak... especially for longer 
periods of time... and then when I want user “x” to participate I would ask 
user “x”  to “unmute” and talk... and when he/she is finished  to “mute” 
unfortunately when I “mute all users” it also mutes me (the moderator). My 
work-around is to inform the participants in advance that I will “mute 
everybody” to eliminate echo and feedback and then ask them to individually 
“unmute” me... and then them etc.

Again this is a rare scenario that might have slipped the net... the 
alternative would be to have external speakers for the audio (muting 
everyone... except the moderator) and using a for example... a conference 
microphone... to pick up on what each individual is saying... whereby on 
designated user in the group activates audio / mic etc but then in this 
situation it is quite difficult to know who is speaking... as that microphone 
is connected to one user’s computer.

Any suggestions, work-arounds on this?

I know the ideal situation would be for the participants to find different 
isolated positions in the building to work from... but I assure you... in this 
situation it is not physically possible... even though I am told they are 
taking Covid seriously. And honestly, I’ve exhausted all of these measures with 
the company. However, some of the workers do not have access to computers at 
home and as a result will share an office environment with a projector and so 
on. Please do not let this posting turn into something other than a tech and 
application usage recommendation / suggestion... because I’m honestly, I am 
tired, emotionally and mentally drained.

Finally @Maxim and @Sebastian... on a totally different note... I had a game of 
Chess on OM with my son recently (without screen sharing) ... which was fun... 
a little bit Mickey Mouse... but it worked... which makes me think we should 
open an “applications” usage group for OM... showing its practicality rather 
than anything else... whereby users can upload/download workable ideas, 
classes, ideas  ... etc from the platform As an English teacher and 
exhausted business owner... hopefully this message will inspire...

Again, and sorry for the repetition, this platform can be used, with the proper 
guidance to deliver a professional class.

All the best,

Denis.

External camera

[Sangeeta Verma]

Hello,Which version is external camera functionality being planned for?
This is very important functionality. Lot of people are not able to work with 
because they are already using external camera.
Thanks,Regards,
