Teams - Camera and screen share issue
Hi, Since yesterday we have been having firm wide issues with camera usage and screen share in Teams calls. When user 1 calls user 2, user 1 can see user 2s camera and screen share. User 2 cannot see user 1s camera or screen share. It seems to be that the recipient cannot see camera feed or screen share, but the original caller can see incoming camera feeds and screen shares. We have tried fully reinstalling and nuking local cache, but no luck. Before we start looking a bit deeper, has any others had this at all. Many thanks guys
How to revert "Automatically Hiding Inactive Channels" (globally) ?
Hi, some colleagues reported that they cannot find some channels in Teams anymore. I found this: https://office365itpros.com/2024/07/03/teams-inactive-channels/ And now I am worried becaues I can expierence the same behavior. We have lots of customer teams that get created from a MS Flow following a certain structure (5 general channels for each team). Lots of these channels are hidden now. I already unchecked the button in MS Teams saying: "Clean up channel list" but it seems like this is not reverting it. In some customer teams we have more than 100 channels for existing projects and the general channels such as "Basic Information" for example is at the very bottom and I would need to manually make it visible. This is obviously now acceptable. Does anyone know: Is there a way to globally deactivate that feature via MS Teams Admin and/or Intune to prevent newly registered devices / teams from cleaning up the channel list? Could not find anything so far. How can I revert these changes on existing devices so that it was like it was before (the general channels are on the top again). Thanks!!
Teams Mobile - Screen Sharing error only on Android Pixel Phones
Today we noticed that when in a Teams meeting on a Google Pixel phone running the latest Android 14 OS, we are unable to use the Screen Share option in a meeting. The error message "Action Blocked. This action is not allowed by your organization." pops up after choosing to screen sharing. Those with this issue are able to share individual pictures, just not cast their entire screen to Teams. This led me to believe that one of our application protection policies was blocking this feature from working, but there is no such setting to enable. The closest one is related to screen capture and I have that allowed. Those with Samsung Android phones with the latest Android OS 14 are successfully able to Screen Share, so its not any policy we have related to android phones. iPhones are also successfully able to screen share from Teams without any issues. I did also check our global policy settings for meeting and content sharing is allowed. Content sharing is also allowed for the specific meeting we tested in. If anyone else has a Google Pixel phone with the latest version of android on it, please let me know if you are experiencing the same problems with sharing your screen in a Teams Meeting.
Mouse pointer lag or delay or shaky
Hi, there is an issue when joining a Teams meetings leading to a significant lag or delay of mouse pointer speed. This happens across devices (notebooks, workstations); this is affecting a novel Logitech device connected via BT and Teams joining via web-interface, but also for Teams App. IMO this is a fundamental issue (either PHY or MS level), why a software (Teams) is suddenly "interfering" with the mouse pointer (speed). Internet bandwidth is fine at > 50 mbit. Once I logout of the meeting, the pointer is "released". Additionally, the lag is immediately "released", once another users starts sharing (taking over). Note that the lag is there before sharing anything from main-user side. Does anyone experience this "phenomena"? Are there any reports, which are known to the MS Teams dev team. Are there any ideas or concrete solutions to this issue? I consider "go to settings" not the answer, this seems to be some be internal or "layers below the surface". Regards
Feature Request: Add native Mute/Unmute controls to Teams interface on Android Auto
The current Microsoft Teams integration for Android Auto lacks basic in-call management. When participating in an active Teams meeting or VoIP call while driving, there is no option on the vehicle's display to mute or unmute the microphone. Because Teams routes calls through the native dialer interface or operates purely in the background, steering wheel mute controls and on-screen audio toggles do not map to the Teams application state. This forces users to physically handle their mobile devices while driving to toggle their mute status. Impact: Safety Hazard: Forcing drivers to interact with a handheld phone to mute/unmute during a corporate call defeats the purpose of a hands-free infotainment system. Broken Workflow: Users frequently experience "hot mic" situations or miss opportunities to contribute to meetings because they cannot safely toggle their microphone from the center console. Requested Solution: Please add a persistent, large Mute / Unmute toggle button directly on the Android Auto screen interface during an active Teams call, and ensure it correctly hooks into native vehicle hardware controls (like steering wheel mute buttons) where supported.
Bulk configuration of Favorites/Speed Dials for common area phones
We're about to deploy a large number of common area phones throughout our building for use in utility spaces and next to the stairs, each with its own 365 Shared Device user account and phone number. We would like to set their Favorites/Speed dials with contacts such as the Front Desk, the First Aid call queue, and the IT Service Centre. Is there any way to do this remotely as a bulk process, or does it have to be done individually? Is there a template, a policy, or some sort of scripting process that we could utilise? If nothing else, is there a way to automate signing in to 30-40 Teams accounts, setting each of their Favorites, and then log out again? This seems like a pretty standard requirement for common area phones, but I haven't found any clear documentation on carrying this out.Looks like the "share content from camera" option has been removed in the New Microsoft Teams app?
While working at home I use a dedicated PC to aggregate audio & video for recording and video conferencing. On the old Teams for Work app I could "share content from camera" while in a meeting which would let me select a capture card to share. As opposed to hooking a windowed application or capturing a connected display. I used to have a "fake" display (via an EDID emulator) that I would full screen OBS on. So, I could share my screen in Discord. But Discord finally added capture card support a couple weeks ago... and for a second all popular video conferencing apps had the option to share a capture card (Discord, Teams, Zoom, etc). I was happy to finally be rid of this fake display. It causes other issues / confusion since it's technically a display in windows, but fairly inaccessible as it can't be physically seen. Unfortunately, it looks like as soon as Discord added this option, Microsoft teams removed it?MS Teams not outputting to my headphones/headset.
Hi, I'm connecting with my Bose NC700 Headphones (https://www.bose.com/p/headphones/bose-noise-cancelling-headphones-700/NC700-HEADPHONEARN.html) and they work under Windows 10 Pro. While they are also connected to my phone (Pixel 6) and Window laptop, I can hear YouTube videos fine and I can record fine. However, I can't hear anyone when I connect to a meeting, though those in the meeting say they hear me. I've tried using the "Call me" feature to connect to the meeting, but after a while, I get choppiness in hearing and others say I sound choppy. Attempting to force to all Teams.exe to priority 13 seems to help, but the issue is still there. I've also attempted this while disconnecting from my phone with the same results. Doing a test call Settings > Devices > Make a test call seems to also has this same issue. More > Settings > Device Settings shows mic's bar rising and falling and the circle around Echo flashes to appear to indicate that it is trying to say something. Switching to internal speakers bear this out. The mic works, I'm just not getting output to my headset/headphones. At one point there was a workaround where I'd have to connect to the meeting, go to More > Settings > Device Settings and changing the speaker to the laptop and then back to my headset, but this workaround also no longer works. 😠 I've had to resort to connect to the meeting on my phone, but now I can barely see anything on the screen. Connecting to both laptop and phone causes the phone output to stop working (not sure about the mic) even when I tell the laptop connection to not use audio which says, "Join muted to avoid causing audio disruption". NOTE: There is no Test call" to allow me to verify this type of connection and would be appreciated for diagnostics. Anyone else having this issue? I've been crippled from BEING ABLE TO DO MY JOB for over a couple of months now AND IS GETTING VERY TIRESOME! I need at least a workaround that works other than connecting with my phone so I can see what's being presented. Thx.
Microsoft Teams – “You need a paid subscription to use Microsoft Teams”
Hi everyone, I’m currently unable to sign in to Microsoft Teams using my work account. When I launch the Teams desktop app, I receive the following message: "You need a paid subscription to use Microsoft Teams. To continue using Teams, you’ll need a license. You’re currently signed in as [my account]. Please click Request License to ask your admin for access or sign in with a different account." However, according to our admin, a Microsoft Teams Premium license (or equivalent Microsoft 365 license) has already been assigned to my account. I can also see Teams listed under My Apps in the Microsoft 365 portal. I have tried the following steps: Signed out and signed back in Tried Teams web app (teams.microsoft.com) in an InPrivate or Incognito browser Cleared Teams cache from %appdata%\Microsoft\Teams Reinstalled the Teams desktop client Unfortunately, the same message still appears. Could someone please advise: Is this a known sync or license propagation issue? Should the admin reassign the license or refresh it from the Microsoft 365 Admin Center? Are there any other steps to force Teams license validation? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Savindu
