Starting a video conference

You have 2 options:

Start a video conference on the lecture hall PC: To do this, open the video conference on the lecture hall PC.
Start a video conference on your own device: First connect the device you have brought with you to the video conference connection on the lecture hall desk. Then open the video conference on your device.

The appropriate connection cables are labelled Videokonferenz and can be found (depending on the location) in the teacher's tray or at the porter's desk.

The connection cables allow you to connect to the USB-A and USB-C ports of your device. Please use only these cables and avoid any additional adapters.

For meetings in Moodle, go to moodle.univie.ac.at and open the video conference meeting in Big Blue Button or Zoom (both tools are supported).

Meetings with Zoom can also be accessed directly via univienna.zoom.us. The Zoom client is installed on the lecture hall PC if required.

Selecting sources

Now select the sources for the video conference:

	Selecting microphone	Selecting camera
Big Blue Button	For Apple users: The source is called Hörsaal Audio/Video.	Tip: Select High Definition under Quality.
Zoom	For Windows users: The source is called Freisprechtelefon mit Echocancelling (Hörsaal Audio/Video Speakerphone)

If you are asked for permission, allow access to the microphone and camera.

Holding a video conference

If you want to share your presentation/screen in the conference, share it directly in the video conference tool.
If you are working on your own device, you must also connect it in the lecture hall via HDMI or VGA so that your presentation/screen can also be seen via projector in the lecture hall.
If you want to change the camera position during the meeting, use the u:stream camera control again. This is only available on the lecture hall PC.

Ending the video conference

End the video conference.

Log out of u:stream, the video conference and, if necessary, the Zoom app.

Finally, close the browser.
