My Hangout Window was Closed Automatically by a New Timer
Apparently, if you have a Hangout Video Call window open but are not doing anything with it, then you'll see this timer/warning dialog.
Quite a while back we had a different looking warning for inactivity when in a Hangout Video Call (and that seemed to go away)... this one just showed up today for me.

Maybe it has been around for a while and I just did not notice since I don't normally sit in a Hangout window without doing anything.

It makes a gameshow type clicking sound, and tries to draw your attention to the window... if you don't click the Yes button, then I have seen it close 1 minute after the first alert which seems to come at about 4 minutes (so you've got 5 minutes to respond).

Does this apply to a HOA? My results were from a Hangout Video Call (HVC) not a Hangout on Air (HOA) window.

I wonder how this will affect multiple computers being used as separate cameras in a HOA broadcast... will they need to have some mouse movement on occasion to keep them viable as a 'camera'?
