This means that people can only view it who have the link. MLML provides the link to those in the MLML community who would like to watch the stream, but it is not provided publicly. It then is kept as Unlisted after the talk is over, so that it cannot be searched for or viewed on YouTube publicly. ##### Why do I have to be recorded? - - All MLML seminars and defenses are recorded for MLML internal community but the speaker has option to make the presentation stream live to the public or not.

Below are the most common and simple ways of starting an online meeting. ##### **Schedule the meeting using the room calendar** ***Best for meetings that can be scheduled ahead of time...*** 1. Schedule a meeting using the [intranet calendar](https://mlml.sjsu.edu/intranet/resource-calendars/group-study-103/) and indicate you need the video conferencing unit. 2. Once the event has been added, it will appear on the neat pad controller on the day of the event. Select the event and start the meeting ##### ##### **Start a meeting from your laptop computer** ***Best for unscheduled meetings and if you have your laptop with you*** 1. Open the zoom application from your computer. 2. In the upper left corner of the zoom window, you'll see an icon that looks like the image below. Click on that icon and the computer will now act like a remote control. [![zoom_icon.png](https://kb.mlml.sjsu.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2023-04/scaled-1680-/zoom-icon.png)](https://kb.mlml.sjsu.edu/uploads/images/gallery/2023-04/zoom-icon.png) 3. Start the meeting from the Zoom application on the computer. The application will ask you if you would like to use the neat room. Choose this option. This will prevent any audio feedback from your laptop with the neat bar / zoom room. ##### **Presenting from a laptop without a zoom meeting** 1. With the TV on, connect the HDMI cable to a laptop. The Neat Bar will change the input. **Troubleshooting and Resolving Technical Issues** - **TV does not show any picture** - In rare cases, the TV needs to be fully reset.

Lower the shades and dim the lights if the projectors are not turning on for you. Also, the lamp in the projector needs to warm up in order for the projector to start projecting. Be sure to wait 10-20 seconds for the projector to turn on and warm up. (NOTE: If you look closely at the bottom of the projector, you will notice 2 small lights, one green, one amber. When the projector powers on, the amber light turns off and the green light stays on.) **POSSIBLE CAUSE #3:** The batteries in the remote may need to be replaced. - **SOLUTION:** Aim the remote at a wall or the floor and press the Laser button to verify that the remote has power. If the laser is dim or not visible replace the batteries in the remote. Contact IT Services or the Front Office Staff for batteries. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ ##### **PROBLEM: Computer image not displayed on projector** (Projector displays "NO INPUT" message) **POSSIBLE CAUSE #1:** The video cable is connected to the wrong video port on the podium or is not securely connected to the video port on the podium or the computer. - **SOLUTION:** Reconnect the video cable to the podium and the computer.
