NDI usage in "Live Events" for Teams

Hi!   I am super happy with the implementation of NDI in Teams, it's a great way to amp up production quality. Now in one case, we are having more than 20 active participants/panelists. Will it be ...

    Could you use regular Teams meeting, then use NDI to pull the Together mode view which will already have all your presenters together, you can then send that to an external screen (check out using OBS with a 'projector') and feed that into a Live Event.

     

    Live Events currently doesn't have a polling option, it's coming with the new overflow meeting capabilities later this year.

Microsoft, please bring back NDI for MS Teams Live events. This feature is too critical to be dropped, and it is worrisome that the community was not informed before it was dropped. Can we please have an eta on the reinstatement of this feature. I saw some comments that it would be rolled out later in the year, but have not seen it yet.

    I would add another vote to adding NDI back to Live Events.  I waited 2-3 months to even have access to NDI after my admin added it.  Once I finally got it I discovered it didn't work on Live Events.  We have been running public meetings with Live Events and I need NDI to produce something with more than one video for discussions.  I might have to convince my organization to present to the public on a different platform.  Please fix this for one of the most obvious uses of NDI.

      Has anything changed on this front yet to make NDI available on Teams Live Event?

        Asif Kazi Sorry I didn't post an update.  Not long after my last post on this in February, I was able to use NDI for Live Events.  I can not speak to if this is still possible though as the meeting that I had been regularly live streaming went back to in person only in May.
