Announcement that Microsoft Teams will support 7×7 videos
We spoke on the podcast previously that Microsoft may be planning to support up to 49 video feeds in a Teams Meeting – but there is some speculation about what the performance will be like, and the use cases for it.
Joining us on this week’s podcast is Emily Kirby, Program Manager in Teams Engineering, responsible for meetings. We chatted to her today to understand a bit more about the feature, what’s driving it, when it’s likely to arrive and how it will affect performance.
