feature request - mute or turn off all participant's video

Hello,

We use RingCentral Meetings for group trainings and introduction courses etc.

I like the feature that I am able to "Manage Participants" and "Mute All" automatically when people come into the room. But there is one more feature that we need desperately. We have people joining our meeting and I may be doing a "Screen Share" and then suddenly I will have several people join and activate their video. I have to them STOP what I am doing or STOP my video and click on "Turn Off Video" for EACH individual person coming on who has activated their video. Can't there be a simple function just like you have for "Mute All" and have something for video that would say "Stop All" video? Then allow the Meeting Host control over who to allow video just like they can do for audio?

I hope this can be done.

Thank you,

Ron Holt

Full and total control of features being able to be used during a presentation would be great. maybe the person hosting the meeting should be able to set a feature list if they chose prior to sending out the invite that would then allow or not certain features for participants so the host would not have to then referee their own presentation.

Are there any updates on this feature request? Specifically the piece where stopping video for all participants upon entrance would function the same as the mute for all participants upon entry. This is definitely something I've searched for, haven't found, and landed here. Thanks!

Yes, we would also like the disable video for all participants upon joining and not allow them to turn it back on. Same as the audio controls for the same reason. Sometimes you just want to present webinar style and only respond to chat messages.
