Thing to keep in Mind

You can only share in a desk phone call when all of the following requirements are met:

  • Your organization must be using calling in Webex (Unified CM)

  • You must be connected to your desk phone for the call.

  • You can only share in a call between you and one other person.

  • The other person on your call must also be connected to their desk phone for the call in Webex.

If you're sharing content with video or audio, you should check these options:

  • Share computer audio—The other person hears the audio on their computer.
  • Optimize for video—The video plays back much more smoothly because the content displays at up to 30 frames per second (fps) with a resolution of 720p. For example, if you're sharing a video, the frame rate is increased and this reduces any lag.

    Webex needs an extension to share your computer audio. If you don't have this extension, then Webex automatically downloads it when you click Share computer audio. You must have administrator permission on your computer to install the extension.

  • Optimize for video—The video plays back much more smoothly because the content displays at up to 30 frames per second (fps) with a resolution of 720p. For example, if you're sharing a video, the frame rate is increased and this reduces any lag.
