When scheduling a session, you have the option to configure advanced settings. All these settings have been pre-configured with the optimal defaults suitable for the vast majority of meetings. Therefore, in most cases, you do not need to modify them. However, to enhance the experience for specific needs, you may need to customize them. Below is a list of settings you can configure when creating a new session.
Mobile Link and Integrations
This option enables the automatic creation of a link for accessing KUDO AI on any mobile device through a dedicated URL or a QR code. The QR code will open a page in the browser. Additionally, this option provides an embed code to integrate KUDO AI into third-party platforms. This option is enabled by default.
This option includes the following two settings:
- Enable Autofloor: When activated, this setting allows participants to hear the original (speaker's) audio within the translation channel if the speaker is speaking the same language as that particular channel. Autofloor can be disabled to implement the autofloor API, or to stop the floor audio from passing thru.
- Enable Horizontal Screen Projection: When activated, this setting adjusts the appearance of the Mobile Link, allowing it to be fully resizable. This feature is especially useful for projecting captions on large screens during in-person events, where space is limited due to other visuals being projected on the screen.
Uploading Your Logo
This option allows you to upload your company logo to a meeting, replacing the default KUDO logo on the Mobile Link. It's ideal for organizations that want to deliver a branded experience when using translation services.
The logo can be uploaded in Advanced Settings during meeting creation. For best results, use an image that is 96x96 pixels or smaller, in landscape orientation.
Speaking Modes
This option applies to sessions held via KUDO Meeting. The default setting is Open Mic, but you can customize this based on your needs. The available modes are:
- Open Mic: Participants can independently turn their microphones on and off. You can also limit the maximum number of microphones that can be active simultaneously by adjusting the "Number of Active Mics" setting.
- Request to Speak: In this mode, participants must request permission to speak by clicking a dedicated icon within the KUDO Web Conferencing application. The session host will then enable their microphone. We recommend using Request to Speak modes for meetings expecting 20 or more participants.
Recordings
This option allows you to record the audio and video of your meeting. Recordings will be available for 30 days. By default, this option is set to OFF, ensuring that no recording of your meeting will occur without your explicit consent.
Audio Manager
Allow the Audio Manager role in order to ingest and route audio for hybrid or in-person meeting.
Preparation time
Allow the meeting to start before the scheduled time. This is useful for technical setup, such as checking if connections are established and ensuring that audio is properly captured by the device.
Grant consent for the KUDO team to access your meeting
Allow members of the KUDO team to join your meeting when necessary, for example, for debugging purposes.
