Presentation Viewer UI
When the people invited to view the Presentation open the Presentation link, they will see the following:
In the SubC Presentation Viewer UI, we have added a new Loading in Progress graphic to let users see the application is loading. This is especially useful for users on slower Networks as it reassures that the Presentation Viewer application is loading.
The Presentation Client Login UI will appear, and the invited viewer will enter their email address and their Access Code that was included in the Presentation Invitation email they receive.
The Channel(s) associated with the Presentation must be actively Streaming for your audience to view the Channel video in SubC Presentation Web.
Presentation Viewer Examples
Once logged into the Presentation, the invited viewer will see the video(s) of the active streaming Channel(s) that the Remote Operations Admin has set to display on the specified Presentation.
The following examples show 1 active Channel streaming to an Internal Presentation.
Internal Presentations have the SubC Logo watermark overlay and are intended to be used for testing prior to live projects.
Regular Presentations do not have this watermark overlay and are intended to be used during live projects.
Example: Logged into an Internal Presentation (has SubC watermark overlay) with access to Audio Room. The Audio Room access button appears on the top right.
