Audio quality when using Teams Townhall with rtmp-in.
Hi everyone I have broadcast a live music (orchestra) concert using Teams Townhall with rtmp-in (using Blackmagic Design web presenter). When I checked the archive recorded on Teams, I realized that the volume of the music is being ducked automatically. All my audio sources are mixed down with a professional digital mixer before streaming to Teams so basically they have a good balanced. I have another back-up recorded data and it does not have the same problem, so i think it is caused by the algorithm of Teams, and even if I am using an external encoder?? Is there a method to fix this problem? I have compared the data recorded by the external device and teams. The ducking is quite obvious.

We regularly host live events for our all-team member meetings. One of our presenters is sometimes on the road and must use the dial-in number as a presenter (audio only of course). It works great, but if someone mutes him within the live event interface, there is no way for us to un-mute him. Is there a way that he can un-mute himself? Possibly by pressing the pound (#) key or something? To be clear, I am not talking about him muting or unmuting his own phone, I'm talking about un-muting in the teams live event interface. In this last meeting he was muted by someone and eventually had to dial back in so he could speak, which was frustrating.simulating Teams live event traffic
Does a *free* solution exist to simulate Teams live event traffic from multiple machines similar to the Microsoft Teams Network Assessment tool for troubleshooting purposes? IIRC at least one of the ECDN vendors offers something, but I think you have to commit to purchasing before you use their solution.
Teams Live Events- Bitrate woes for Live Event and recording
I've been trying to find ways to improve the Teams Live events performance, mainly video quality / bitrate. However, I fear that there's a limit above which the quality cannot be improved. I even tested with an eCDN provider but viewers can never get more that 720p@1.5Mbit/s. I am puzzled. How can 720p@1.5MBit/s ever be enough? Even on a 14" Notebook it's almost impossible to read Excel table data let alone viewing it on a 27" or above screen. Moreoever, the Live Event recording suffers even worse. It's usually around 600KBit/s with 66Kbit/s for audio. This is way from being contemporary. I feel there's something fundamentally wrong and was wondering if it's still something wrong in our configuration or if you have the same experiences. Would love to hear your feedback.
Teams Live Event - Queue screen fallover
Good afternoon, We had our first Teams Live Event on Monday. The system worked, largely, well. However around half an hour into the event, as Producer I found that the Queue window starting to freeze up. I would select a source to Queue then click "Send Live." From the recording, I could see the that selection went live at the right time but the Queue window would then lock, with an updating circle in it. The previous source would still have the Live marker around it and the Send Live button was greyed out. Two other Producers were also watching the call so I deferred to one of them to make the next cut, whereafter they found the same issue. The same then happened to the third Producer. By this time my system had unfrozen but it happened again to me. The bulk of the event was a presentation which went smoothly however the problem became more acute during a Q&A where we cut between the main presenter and a Q&A moderator. Why would this happen? Is there a clash when having more than one Producer view the Producer panel? Or is there a possible connection speed/server load issue which might've caused this problem? Kind regards, Rich
