I'm having this issue as well with our boardroom meetings.

Any help would be great.

    Cameorn_Ovenden This will happen unless one of these is true

     

    • The remote person viewing the video chooses Fit to Frame manually (from the corner of the video feed)
    • You are using a Teams Room System (Android or Windows) which is automatically set to Fit to Frame.

    What are you using to run the meeting in your boardroom?

      Is there any way to force or default Fit to Frame from the source account?

       

      The issue I am having is from a Windows 11 OS, I share a presentation and my camera is then cropped. For live viewers they can manually choose Fit to Frame on my camera feed, but it would be much better if they didn't need to do that. There is also the issue of recordings showing the cropped camera feed, is there a way to force Fit to Fram for recordings, if not in general?

        VictorTLA How are you sharing the presentation? If the slides are taking up most of the screen isn't it best you are cropped to the side. You could use Presenter Modes or PowerPoint Cameo to be part of the slides although they don't record at the moment.
