Support for multiple cameras with Teams Room Pro
Hello,
I would like to know how Team Room Pro provides support for multiple cameras. I work in an office with a large conference room, and we would like to be able to have one camera on the speaker, and one camera on the room, both controlled from the same device and then also allow others to join the meeting. We have Teams Room Pro, but we can not figure out how to get the program to support the multiple cameras. Any suggestions?
- Markus_JohanssonSteel ContributorAs today multiple cameras are not supported for MTR. If you have MTRoW you might be able to plug in 2 USB cameras and toggle from the touch console but they will not work simultaneously.

Is your question more about multiple "streams" vs "multiple cameras"? Having multiple cameras is something we are doing but eagerly await having multiple streams as Zoom does now.

Margosd Thank you for the reply, if by multiple cameras, you mean being able to toggle between two, and selecting which to use, but only one works at a time, where as multiple streams meaning two cameras working simultaneously, I would prefer two cameras working simultaneously. I would take either at this point, however, I am unable to toggle between the two cameras, it appears that Teams will only recognize one. I do not have the small drop down arrow next to the camera icon that we should, and depending on the day, the system will select one camera over the other. I am able to use one as a "Content" camera, but that image is very low quality. Any suggestions?
- MargosdCopper ContributorYou do not mention whether MTRoA or MTRoW . According to Microsoft Features comparison, you can have multiple cameras and switch them manually in MTRoW. Coming soon for MTRoA.

(note: coming soon is without a definitive date so check often or contact Microsoft if you have a relationship with them)
