Has anyone found an easy solution for video chats with virtual games? I've tried Hangouts, Meet, Discord, and Zoom but they all seemed incomplete for my requirements.
My requirements:
- Host can share their screen and video camera at the same time without having to join the meeting from two different devices
- Desktop audio and host's audio can be heard by everyone on the call
- Gallery view in video chat so everyone can be seen while playing the game
- dddddaviddddd 6y ago> Desktop audio and host's audio can be heard by everyone on the call I find the inability to have more than one person 'speaking' at a time the most unnatural thing about videoconferencing. Is there any solution?
- phlamb 6y agoI found Skype to be the easiest to use with these requirements. I hosted a Jackbox game and was able to share my screen (and game audio), my webcam (albeit in a smaller view than normal), and could see everyone in a gallery view.
- Splendor 6y agoThanks. I'll give it a shot.
- Splendor 6y agoI tried Skype and it fell short as well. While sharing my screen I can only see a small floating window that shows 1 participant at a time. I can't see everyone while sharing the game. It was very easy to share my desktop audio while sharing the screen though.
