Teams Live Events and audio

At my company we have just started to look at using Teams Live Events.  We have an upcoming Town Hall that we wish to use it for.  Whilst great for a traditional presentation or just a speaker speak...

    There will come support for system audio in a meeting when sharing desktop soon in Teams meeting, even if they haven't specific said that it will also support system audio when sharing in a Live Event I think it will be supported.

     

    We have used a HDMI to USB device for our customers that want to share audio from a computer, the device we used is from Magewell but there is many different brands. You have one computer where you present and share audio, connect computer with HDMI with the HDMI2USB device and connect the USB cable to and second computer. Join the live event as an presenter from the second computer, the screen from first computer will show as an video device and the audio will show up as an audio device/microphone.

     

    If you want to show the presentation from the first computer on a projector screen or similar you have to split the HDMI signal first.
