Hi,

 

Currently you will only see four active speakers, that will be increased to nine soon (May). So if you are 15 people in the meeting the 4 (9 soon) latest active speakers will be shown with their video.

If you have a group chat you will only be able to start a video conference from that if you are 20 participants or less in that group chat.

 

If you schedule a meeting or invite to a meeting you can be 250 participants in that meeting.

Hello, I want to set up a Teams video call with > 30 participants, but only 2-4 at a time shall actively use Video & Audio, all others shall turn cameras off and go on mute. 

Does someone know if that works?
