When setting your virtual background, you will notice the image is mirrored. This mirroring is only on your end; it is meant to make you more comfortable, as it mimics your experience of standing in front of a mirror. On the participants' screens, your image is not mirrored. Text will appear correctly on your Participant's screens. |
- Attached to the Start/Stop video button is a caret. Click on the caret to expand the menu. Click on Change virtual background.
- This will open the Virtual Background manager.
- From here, you may select None to disable the Virtual Background, Blur to blur your background, or use a virtual background. The "+" to add a custom background will always be at the bottom of the list. You may add up to 3 custom backgrounds.
