Browser based video conferencing on Surface Hub S2
Hello Cédric DAUVILLIER,
As far as I know, WebEx requires a plugin to work as web based. Unfortunately I don't have an account to check if this is true. However, I tested with Zoom and it seems it doesn't support Edge (not Chromium). There is no browser plugin as you mentioned.
Since there was no official mention about Chromium on the Surface Hub, I cannot say if this will come on the next major OS version. We know this is something that our users are asking so it is being considered. While we understand the need, security always comes first in a business environment. I trust the product team will be able to enable this feature without compromising security. Please have a bit more patience with this subject, I'm sure a decision will be made soon
Thank you,
Cezar
Fortunately this discussion lapsed as with Windows 10 Teams 2020 Update the Chromium base Edge browser may now be rolled out to Surface Hub devices opening the path to WebRTC video conferences. Our setup was proven with GoToMeeting and Zoom on Surface Hub working great in a browser session!
