Manual for MeetingPlus

For optimal experience kindly access the virtual platform through the CHROME browser, this means that no external software download is required besides accessing the website.

The basic requirements are as follows:
  • Personal computer / laptop
  • Presentation hand over- check that all is ok- it is highly important to advise that we do not have animations set at PPT! We convert those to our platform in order to have a smooth transaction. Videos are played separately and need to be loaded to the platform as individual file or YouTube / Vimeo link. • 10MB Internet connection (with optimal transmission quality)
  • CHROME browser
  • Computer Camera - (The camera is built into each laptop). If you have an HD camera connected with USB that will be even better.
  • Microphone (built-in)
  • Headphones – to avoid any background sound that can be.
  • Please make sure that any other application that is using your computer camera (Zoom, Webex, etc. ) is closed. Kindly check your camera / audio connection by using the below tester link: https://embed.archiebot.com/connection-tester
