Important Note: If you are utilizing the OptiSigns Android Stick kindly ensure that the Live Meeting is set to public. If your preference is to have the Teams Live Meeting set to "Sign-in required," it is recommended to consider using the Windows or Linux device.

 

That's it!

Now you can assign this MS Teams Live app to your screens, or put it on a schedule so the screens will join automatically when the event start.

Tips:

Have the host start the event a few mins before screens are joining automatically.
It will take a device 10-15s to join the event, so it's not a good idea to put the MS Teams Live in a playlist. It's better to use it as single asset to take up full screen or be part of a SplitScreen zone.
