How to restore the original track. - [Audio quality for webinars](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/audio-quality-for-webinars): Fix the microphone and the room first, then the line. Where the sound controls live, what the DTS app adds, and how to check it all before you go on air. - [Broadcast latency (stream delay)](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/broadcast-latency): Delay here is dynamic, always pulling back to the minimum. Presenters sit 100 to 600 ms apart, and the audience carries a deliberate smoothing buffer on top. - [Broadcasting from a corporate network](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/broadcasting-from-a-corporate-network): Company firewalls block the UDP that WebRTC needs, so the room moves your stream to TCP port 443 by itself. What is automatic, and when the app helps. - [Disabling browser tab sleep mode](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/browser-tab-sleep-mode): A sleeping tab can drop your webinar connection, and the room is not on the domain you would expect. Which addresses to keep awake, and how, in each browser. - [How to allow camera and microphone access on a Mac](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/camera-and-microphone-access-on-macos): Your Mac decides which apps may use the camera and microphone.

It has a width setting and six positions, so what each needs in pixels, why two resolutions cover them, and how to improve yours. - [Chat moderation](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/chat-moderation): Chat settings in the webinar room let you switch attendee chat off, pre-moderate messages, hide links, clear the chat and block or unblock a participant. - [What to do when video freezes or attendees drop out](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/connection-quality): Frozen video and attendees who keep dropping out of the room almost always come down to the connection, so measure it before you change anything in the room. - [Why there is a delay between presenters](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/delay-between-presenters): Talk between presenters lags because every stream goes through our servers. Where the milliseconds go, why everyone waits for the slowest link, and what helps. - [Inviting an attendee to speak during a webinar](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/dialogue-invitation): Any moderator can put an attendee on air with the green megaphone icon. What the attendee sees, how they ask for the floor themselves, and how the turn ends. - [Extra seats during a webinar](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/extra-seats-during-a-webinar): More people can arrive than your plan covers. How to add seats from inside the running room, and why that purchase covers only the webinar you bought it in. - [Full-screen mode](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/full-screen-mode): Full-screen mode makes what you are sharing fill every viewer's window. How to switch it on from Room settings, what attendees see and how to switch it off. - [Going on air (the Speak button and browser permissions)](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/going-on-air): Click Speak, then let your browser use the camera and microphone. What the prompt looks like in seven browsers, and how to clear a block you set earlier. - [Your video freezes for the audience while your tab is hidden](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/hidden-tab-freezes-your-video): Switch away from the room and the audience sees you in steps while your voice stays perfect. That is browser throttling, not your connection, and only one thing fixes it. - [Internet speed for the webinar room](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/internet-speed): How much upload and download speed a webinar needs, presenter by presenter, where to measure your own connection and what to do when the line is too slow. - [Webinars and power saving modes on macOS and iOS](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/macos-ios-power-saving): Low Power Mode throttles a Mac or iPhone mid-webinar, and the picture goes first. Where it lives, what it costs, and the battery setting that is a red herring. - [Mirror domain access when the platform is blocked](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/mirror-domain-access-when-the-platform-is-blocked): If a provider, a country or an office network blocks the platform, swap the domain in your room link for one of our mirrors and everyone gets back in. - [OBS Studio broadcasting into the webinar room](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/obs-studio-broadcasting-into-the-webinar-room): Set up an OBS Studio stream into your webinar room over RTMP, from the settings that unlock it to the Server and Stream Key fields, sources and going live. - [Broadcasting from Opera with the built-in VPN](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/opera-vpn): Opera's built-in VPN can block your webcam and screen sharing in a webinar. Two fixes here, a WebRTC setting in Opera and a VPN bypass rule for the DTS app. - [A phone in silent mode has no webinar sound](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/phone-in-silent-mode-has-no-sound): One attendee on a phone hears nothing while everybody else is fine. Nine times out of ten the phone is on silent, and the fix takes them five seconds. - [How to show a pointer on your slides](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/pointer-on-presented-material): There is no button called Cursor. While you share your screen your own cursor already travels with it, and on slides the pointer lives in drawing mode. - [How to share your screen during a webinar](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/screen-sharing): Show a whole monitor or one window to your audience. Download the app from the Screen tab, allow screen recording on macOS, then pick what to share. - [Using virtual backgrounds on macOS](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/virtual-backgrounds-on-macos): Inside the room you get background blur. macOS can replace the background outright, and this is how to tell whether your Mac can do it and how to switch it on. - [Webcam position in the live webinar room](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/webcam-position-in-the-webinar-room): Six places for the presenter's camera in the live webinar room, two beside the workspace and four in a corner of it.

It opens automatically with every webinar you create and works in the browser on any device. - [Why screen sharing requires our software](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/why-screen-sharing-requires-our-software): Screen sharing runs through our own app rather than the browser. Why that is, covering encryption, packet loss, picture quality and access control. - [YouTube live stream playback](https://myownconference.com/support/en/rooms/youtube-live-stream-playback): Play a YouTube live stream in the webinar room from the Media tab of the Show window, plus what stops a stream from playing for some of your audience. - [WebSocket connection issues with BitDefender VPN](https://myownconference.com/support/en/faq/bitdefender-vpn): BitDefender VPN can block or inspect the secure WebSocket connections our rooms depend on.
