How Video Is Shared

When you conference two calls together, video continues as it was before the conference call. For example, if
you were sharing video with one party, and only sending your video to another party, then that is how the video
will be handled when the conference call is created.

The conference host serves as the “funnel” for other video. Whatever the conference host is receiving will
automatically be sent to the other parties.

Controlling Video

Once video has been added, it can be paused, resumed and stopped in the same way as on a regular conference
call, by the initiator of the individual “leg” of the conference call.

The conference host does not have special control over the video, and can only add video on legs for which they
were the initiator.

However, if the conference host pauses or stops video, other participants will no longer receive video, because
the host is the video “funnel” as described above.
