Audio/Video

Adjust your speakers and microphone for best audio quality in your room. Click on the Settings icon Settings Icon to bring up the Audio/Video window and test your sound and webcam. Note that when you are testing, you cannot be heard in the room but you cannot hear others talking in the room either.

 

NOTE: PulseAudio is required for Linux systems using MyRoom version 10.9 and higher. Go to the Sound settings on your Linux system. Explicitly select your audio device in both the Output and Input tabs. Verify your microphone volume is not set too low or muted. Test your device in Sound settings. Then proceed to test and adjust your settings in MyRoom as below.

 

In many PCs there may be more than one available microphone input as well as more than one speaker/headset option.

Select the microphone and speakers you are using, adjust the volumes, then click on Start test. Start speaking to verify the selections and, if necessary, adjust the volume for microphone and speakers. You will see the audio graph in the top section as you are speaking into the microphone. Once you are satisfied with the volumes, click Stop test and then either choose another Settings menu item or close the window using the red X.  

 

While the A/V test is running, you will not be seen or heard by others in the same room.
