Is there a way to spotlight (pin) a specific participant for all the participants in prebuilt?

TomohiroMaeda

We want to hold an event where one person is a main speaker with video on and the other one is a moderator with video off.

In active speaker mode, the active speaker changes when the moderator talks and the participants see the moderator's blank video for few seconds, which is unnecessary.

I would like to have "spotlight" function like the one in zoom in prebuilt UI. Is there any ways to do this?

Thanks!

Hi @TomohiroMaeda there's no way at the moment, but we're considering this for future development early next year.

Following up on this, is there any tentative date for this feature release?

Best,

@TomohiroMaeda we don't have a planned date for this yet, but it's on our list of features to consider building.
