Infinite loop window during screen share

[skilr...@gmail.com]

Hi,

We have observed this from the first version of HTML where after screenshare it creates a infinite loop of windows.

Above is the video created for the same. It would be better if we can avoid this. 

Thank you,

Mithun

Hi Muthin,

This is the expected behavior as your have the view of the screen share visible on your screen.  Try sharing an application window (other than Chrome) or a browser tab (other than BigBlueButton) and let us know if this infinite loop does occur.

If you wanted to screen share BigBlueButton itself, you don't need to use screen share (unless your demonstrating to others how BigBlueButton works).  If you have something in the presentation area to share, it will be shared by BigBlueButton itself (and use much less bandwidth than screen sharing itself).

Regards,.. Fred

Thank you Fred. 

We tested screenshare using flash and we do not see same behaviour. Is this issue related to the way html5 works?

You'll see the exact same thing with any screen sharing application when your screen is showing the stream coming back. It's all about the content being shared, not the way it's being shared.
