Hi I'm looking for some input/suggestions on an easier setup for lync 2010 video conference. <br />
<br />
Group uses a Dell laptop in a conference room to accept a video call from a user in another location. <br />
The issue here is the users want nothing to do with accepting the video call themselves in the Lync cilent. They literally just want to go into the room and start the video conference when the user calls in. <br />
<br />
In the group's room, there's a dell laptop with an external polycom multi-camera video/audio device, works fine.<br />
The user in the remote location also uses a dell laptop, and just a simple camera in his conference room.<br />
<br />
is there any third-party software or add-ons to make it easier for them to accept a call from the user, and share their video at the same time? <br />
<br />
Because, they have to keep watching the Lync client to wait for the user to call, accept the call, accept the added video, then add their video, then maximize the video screen to fill up the external television hooked up to the TV.

Web conferencing describes various types of online collaborative services including web seminars ("webinars"), webcasts, and peer-level web meetings. In general, web conferencing is made possible by Internet technologies, particularly on TCP/IP connections. Services may allow real-time point-to-point communications as well as multicast communications from one sender to many receivers. It offers data streams of text-based messages, voice and video chat to be shared simultaneously, across geographically dispersed locations. Applications for web conferencing include meetings, training events, lectures, or presentations from a web-connected computer to other web-connected computers. Popular titles include GoToMeeting, Cisco WebEx, Microsoft Lync, TeamViewer and Skype.
