We *REALLY need this!

We *REALLY need this!

Originally shared by Michael Daniels

if you think this is a good idea and submit this suggestion for Hangouts.

The issue: Not knowing what is being broadcast to the public.
Have you ever been doing a hangout and forget that you have a screen share on?  Or pinned someone and left it on then thought you were screensharing and they are watching the other person.

Please Google Hangout folks let us have a "real time" live video feed of the video in the bottom left corner.  Then the host and all participants can see what is being shown to the audience.  This identifier is HUGE.  It can be black and white video with low resolution.  Just give us something.  

If you think this is a decent idea please add this as feedback one of the 3 ways:
1-While in a Hangout click the '?" in the bottom left of the screen
2-While on G+ click the @ sign to open the feedback window
3-Use the left panel menu bar and go to the bottom of the page and leave feedback.

Thank You

BHOA YouTube screen is black, audio is fine

BHOA YouTube screen is black, audio is fine
Just had a webinar, and afterward got this feedback from someone who tried to participate. Has anyone else experienced this, if so, what do you tell them?

The speaker was good, the technical issues were too many. 

First, from my macbook, I couldn't see anything. My screen was totally black. I could not see chat buttons or anything. However, the audio was great - loud and clear.  I logged off and used my iPad mini instead, where I got on, but the screen was very, very, tiny. I tried full screen and non-full screen, both were tiny. Also, I tried to use the chat to ask a question, it brought me to the box, but I was unable to type into it. Furthermore, at one point I got kicked off and then had to rejoin. Constant interruptions didn't help me learn as much as I wanted from this webinar. 

I do a lot of webinars with Yelp! and for my work (acupuncture and health related companies) and rarely have issues like these. I've used a bunch of webinar platforms like GoToMeeting, GotoWebinar, Teamviewer, Glance, etc... but never used Business Hangouts before.  Perhaps the problem is with Business Hangouts or with my Comcast connection today. Also, my iPad mini is totally up-to-date with the latest IOS8 software, so don't think that was the problem. My $$ is on Business Hangouts or Comcast.

4 Ways To Use Google+ Hangouts To Ramp Up Your Content Marketing Initiative

"Many businesses have already realized the value of Google+ in their marketing efforts, especially since it’s owned by the world’s most popular search engine company. As part of the Google+ platform, users have access to Google+ Hangouts, which enables videoconferencing capabilities for up to ten people.

Google+ seeks to create a social media community where groups of people meet to interact, whether through status updates or video chats.

Instead of hosting one-on-one video chats through Skype, professionals can invite clients, colleagues, or potential customers to join them in a Google+ Hangout. When used properly, this tool can be used to improve a business’s online visibility as well."

Browser question: I see in an old Google Hangout guide that is says the following browsers work with HOA: Chrome, IE, Safari, Firefox yet someone I was thinking Firefox didn't work well and wasn't sure about IE. What is your experience? I'm wanting to know this for filmstrip guests, clearly hosts can take the time to download Chrome. Thank you!

Hello Everyone.

Hello Everyone. Has anyone figured out a way to watch an HOA on mobile, and "toggle" over to the Event page to make a comment during the broadcast, without stopping video? I tried it again tonight with the Game Show, and it's quite cumbersome, and the YT video won't play unless that window is maximized. Is there a short term work around until there's a mobile HOA update?

Re: New Applause App.

Re: New Applause App. I was oriented that it is now on by default and if I want it disabled, I need to do that in the "video card". Once I'm in a hangout I don't see it. Any clues on where it is and how to disable? Is this app for viewers or participants? Thanks!

UPDATE

UPDATE
Andrew Hatchett - I have some quick questions about BHO set up.
As you know, I"m creating a multi-day event.  
1) I don't need an invitation email for all the event days, just the first one.  Is there a way to disable the other ones?
2) I created the emails for the first event and noticed that they preloaded into all the other events.  Can I customize emails for every event?  (I'm hoping the answer is yes). If not, what work-around do you suggest? I figured this one out
3) I want to put the link to the event-  do I use "registration link" or "meeting link"?

Thanks for your help!!

Hello everyone

Hello everyone
I'm Brian in the UK. I work in non profit and therapy areas and I'm exploring using Hangouts to help people with psychological difficulties. I've run several experimental Google Communities and i'm just about ready to start easing these into the Google + stream in a more supported way. I've messed about with Hangouts for sometime but need to move to a professional level of operating.
I look forward to learning and interacting with you.
