Hi, Sorry, I was traveling all day yesterday. I am very surprised by this "solution". I was actually expecting that someone tries to centrally do the research and come up with a meaningful solutions. Since we have several big telcos among the partners, there should be plenty of expertise on that topic, no? Are you really sure that it is a good idea to have each partner try to figure out what is the best method for sharing the demo screen with a large group of likely 30-40 people (we might get quite some additional "demo pilots" for this call) and possible also have us buy N separate licenses to do so? As I told you, I have some ideas about possible tools but I certainly do not know what works, have never tried it, and there is little time now to figure that out until today. In particular, it will also mean that EACH ONE of us has to set up EACH ONE of the different tools selected by the other partners between sometime Friday (likely afternoon) and Monday morning and know how to use it. A challenge in my perspective. So may I make a suggestion to better deal with the situation: Since some partners likely may have experience with such matters already, can those please send suggestions and pointers to tools that can be used for such things? In particular, the tool needs to share the screen for fast full-screen updates to likely 30-40 participants, e.g. running interactive 3D demos or videos on the screen for some of the demos. As an important bonus, it should support many of our platforms (Win, OS-X, ideally including Linux and mobile devices too!). Please be sure to clearly state requirements (like OS or browser on the sending and the receiving side, licenses required and cost of them, limits on the number of simultaneous users, etc.). Maybe this way we can still try to come up with a good solution and agree on (ideally) a single one (or at least as few of them as possible). Maybe some partner also has a license/subscription so others do not have to pay a subscription/license for this call. BTW, a very practical issue: Connecting simultaneously through multiple audio connections (typically on be default in many tools) will create all sort of nice acoustic feedback loops. Even a single such feedback loop for one participant will screw up the entire call badly. So with this "solution" EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US has to make ABSOLUTELY sure that at most one audio connection (including telephone) is active at all times. In particular, this means muting the telephone line (generally a good idea) while starting a new tool that possibly/likely has audio on by default. Then -- as the first thing -- mute audio manually in that tool. Best, Philipp BTW, I did not say that all screen sharing tools are that slow but that some are simply not created for sharing real-time screen content, like videos or interactive demos -- and especially not with large groups.
