Basic Connections for Conferencing
Add a laptop and a second HDMI display for conferencing.
In this diagram, the laptop connects to the room's main display, which shows the far-end video from the
soft conferencing application on the laptop. (In contrast to the previous diagram, our friend at the podium is
on the far end of the call.) The soft conferencing application manages the PIP(s) in this image. The display
connected to the HDMI output shows near-end video.
The HDMI output from the AV Bridge 2x1 goes to a "confidence display" showing near-end video only. The
image on this display is used as the near-end PIP on the main display. If the PIP is enabled on the AV
Bridge 2x1, this is part of the image that others in the conference will see, and the room's main display
shows a PIP within the near-end PIP.
