Participant Video Framing Settings
- Feb 07, 2020
Hi,
There is no central policy for these settings so it up to the end user to switch to whatever they think suites the situation best.
There is a uservoice request that would like to change the default setting to "fit to frame", you can vote for it here: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/599053-schools-and-universities/suggestions/38578531-make-the-default-setting-for-video-calls-fit-to-f
If you want a policy to set this I guess the best way is to create a new uservoice requesting this and they get as many people as possible to vote for it. https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com
This is still an active topic. The older user voices appear to be removed.
A constant pain-point for users is the adaptive views of Teams based on screen ratio, size, window size etc. cropping people out of view.
Most users don't know, are not technically sound or can't be bothered to learn to right-click on each camera feed to 'Fit-to-Frame'.
The cropped (Fill Frame) image should not be the default or give organizations the ability to govern this setting. It impacts viewing experience when multiple participants are on a single camera feed ,like in a meeting room!
