Playing videos to learners with sound

You can easily play an online video from a website such as YouTube or Stream to your learners and include the sound so that they can all watch it at the same time.

If you’re playing a video or audio clip as part of a presentation in a meeting, you’ll want to include sound from your computer. Here’s how to do it.

How to include computer sound

To share sound from your computer, select Share content (Arrow Up in a Box)  in your meeting controls and then Include computer sound—it’s the switch on the top left of your sharing options.
