live events - mute a presenter an can't unmute
Hello to everyone
I would like to start a "live event" whit 6 presenter.
Sometimes, I need to mute one or more of the presenter, but I don't want that they can unmute themself.
If I want complete silence, i can I mute the user, without consider their unmute?!
Hi andreaitsall
For your reference you can do this. Make everyone as a Attendee in the Teams Live Event. As in when the Presenter Turns Up for Presenting the Content make him the presenter for that specific moment. Once he is done with their presentation you can change the role for the person again.
This would help you control the Live Event as well. At the Time of Q&A you can make all them as a presenter that should be help as a workaround. This helps in controlling the event totally

Hi,
It is not possible and I guess it is just because in a regular Teams meeting you can't unmute someone, it would be a security issue there. For a Live Event I can see a unmute function would be easier to justify but currently there is no unmute function.
There is an uservoice request asking for this here, vote for it and promote it so others vote for it.
first of all sorry for my english !
I try to explain better my problem:
If You are a presenter, I can mute Your microphone.
But my problem is that You can unmute by yourself.And If you are "bothersome" (and everytime You unmute your microphone and make noise..) .. how can I mute You?! (without eject you to the live event)
thank a lot for help !
andreaitsall you can't, there's no option to prevent unmute.
