How can I improve the frame rate from screen share?

We use teams a lot at my workplace to screen share. We usually show code, diagrams or other sort of static content. The framerate on these screen shares are usually pretty low, at 2fps. In the long ...

SaitaD There isn't anything that you can do. Microsoft Teams is optimizing for bandwidth but has some AI that allows it to switch between prioritizing crisp or smooth. See

Maybe you could force smooth by playing a video ?

I saw that article earlier too. I am trying to reach the creator. There are some comments in that article about this issue and the possibility of turning the feature off, but no response has been given yet.
I don't think playing a video would work, unless it stays on the foreground, but that would defeat the purpose of the screen share.

  I am looking for an answer or a setting, where I can share my screen in FullHD with 30fps (and yes I have the bandwith to do so)....
  
  So hopefully, there is an option, otherwise I have to look for better meeting apps.

    I now use OBS Studio (free), capture the screen (or window) in OBS, & use it as a virtual webcam. Teams seems to massively prioritise webcam bandwidth over screenshare, so I make it think the screenshare is a webcam. Works great as long as everyone else in the meeting switches their webcam off, I have full screen share at >30fps.
