Skype for Business Clients that support the Producer controls

Am I correct in saying that in order to use the Skype Meeting Broadcast Producer controls you need to have the following versions of the client?

 


•Skype for Business 2016 client (Click-to-Run)
•Skype for Business 2016 Basic client

 

Thanks

    Refer this technote - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3122964

     

    The older SfB 2015 clients are also supported, although we have only tried the MSI version and not the C2R one (which seems to have been recently added to the list).

     

    For 16 C2R build, you need 6221+
    For 15 MSI build, you need 4768+

     

    When I tested 2016 Basic a few weeks ago, it did not have the Producer controls, even though it's supposed to based in that same technote... so make sure you TEST before your event :-)

      anyone have any idea when the 2016 MSI client will be supported for Skype Broadcast Meetings?

       

      we are looking to start using broadcast meetings but it'll be impossible until it works with the 2016 client
