Using Dual Screen in Microsoft Teams

Question

Good Evening,

I would like to ask a question about that "Does Microsoft Teams has the feature of Dual Screen Sharing" like Zoom. For Example, I would like to use dual screen, One Screen is showing presentation and one screen is showing participants and myself presenting about the presentation. Currently Zoom is fine for sharing dual screen as I mentioned above. I would like to use in Microsoft Suite because I am using zoom only for meeting and office apps for Microsoft.

Thank You very much. 

Best Regards,

Hello phyokhant

I am V. Arya, Independent Advisor, to work with you on this issue. This is not possible as of now. Currently, there is an Uservoice request logged for this functionality. I would suggest that you should go there and vote for this. More votes draw more attention from Microsoft. I just upvoted it and made the count to 953.

Note - Uservoice is a repository of suggestions for Microsoft engineers to prioritize feature development requests.

There is a workaround shared by Nidhi1591 here - But to do the workaround you have to follow below steps:

1. Screen 1 : Join your meeting from desktop application
2. Screen 2 : Open teams web application and join same meeting from there

This way in 2 screen you can see choose video in one and presentation in other. Make sure to not join with audio/video in one of the screen.

Hello SongGong,

You should be able to address this by opening the "Volume Mixer" by right clicking the speaker icon down near the clock and selecting "Open Volume Mixer".

This will allow you to mute individual programs, such as Edge in this case.  I would suggest having your Teams app sound in use and the web based sound muted, though the choice is yours.  I believe that it will work either way.

I'll be upvoting as well, it is awkward to log in twice to the same meeting.  I believe that this will show as two participants, though I haven't tested it.  If someone can confirm that I am wrong, I'd be glad to know that.

I hope that this helps!

Best Regards,

Ben

Thanks for this workaround.  When I do this, I hear my own voice through the headphones like an echo.  I do not hear the echo when the participants speak.  And the participants aren't hearing an echo when I speak on their end.  It's only me hearing my own voice twice. 

Is it possible to mute the speaker sound coming from the meeting either in the MS Teams Desktop app, The Teams web app or within Edge? I suspect that it might be that when I'm logged in twice I'm hearing myself twice through the speakers.
