3.2.1 Audio configuration

Audio configuration

The connected user must control his own audio signal using the audio configuration of his computer. If he does not want to broadcast his audio signal, he has to mute audio on his computer.

For some operating system, it is necessary to set ClickShare as your default output device. Once you unplug the Button, the default setting is switched back to the previous setting. The speakerphone selection is also selected.

Audio configuration

The following configuration is the expected configuration for the playback devices when plugging the Button. ClickShare speaker as default device and room speakerphone as default communications device.

The speakerphone is available and can be used even when not on screen. The sound coming out of the speaker is only heard when sharing content. With this defaults, the content audio will be played by the speakers and communication clients (UC&C and conferencing tools) will use the room speakerphone. For best experience, the room speakerphone should be selected in the communications client at all times. Difference is that the audio from the Speakers will be lip-synced with the content, but will have higher latency. The communications device is optimized for the lowest latency possible, but no lip-sync is guaranteed with the video. For an optimal conference, the audio should always be transferred with lowest latency possible and will get priority over video.
