Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed for presenting links during an online presentation. An apparatus includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The code is executable by the processor to receive content that is presented as part of an online presentation, process the received content to identify at least one uniform resource locator (“URL”) in the received content, and present an interactive graphical element representing the at least one URL on a display device. The interactive graphical element includes a link to an online location associated with the URL such that the online location is accessible in response to interacting with the interactive graphical element.

Abstract: In one aspect, an apparatus may include a processor and storage accessible to the processor. The storage may include instructions executable to identify first, second, third, and fourth participants that are to engage in video conferencing. The instructions may also be executable to access data related to the participants. The instructions may then be executable to, based on the data, group the first and second participants together for a first video conference and group the third and fourth participants together for a second video conference. Based on the grouping, the instructions may then be executable to provide a graphical user interface including video feeds of the participants according to the groupings and allowing a fifth participant to enter the different groups to converse audibly with the different groups. The groupings may be made based on past participation in other video conferences and/or traits of the respective participants, for example.

Abstract: In one aspect, a first device includes at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage includes instructions executable by the at least one processor to locally generate first optical character recognition (OCR) data related to at least a first video frame of content. The instructions are also executable to receive, from a second device different from the first device, second OCR data related to at least a second video frame of content. The instructions are then executable to compare the first OCR data to the second OCR data and, responsive to the comparison indicating the first OCR data does not match the second OCR data to within a threshold, take at least one action to adjust the resolution of a video stream such as a video conference's video stream.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a method, including: receiving, at an information handling device, context data associated with one or more participants engaged in an online conference, wherein each of the one or more participants is initially muted; identifying, using a processor, an instance in the online conference where participation is invited from a subset of the one or more participants; determining, based on the context data, the subset of the one or more participants; and deactivating, based on the determining, a mute control for the subset of the one or more participants. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a method, including: supporting, using a meeting application of an information handling device, a mixed meeting, wherein the mixed meeting comprises participants originating from at least two connection mediums; attempting, using a processor, to determine the identities of each of the participants in the mixed meeting; and providing an indication of each of the determined identities to at least one of the participants. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: For detecting and resolving bad audio during conferencing, methods, apparatus, and systems are disclosed. One apparatus includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The processor detects bad audio for a conference call, the conference call involving a plurality of participants. The processor switches a first input stream to an analysis mode, where the bad audio corresponds to a first one of a plurality of input streams, the first input stream associated with a first participant. The processor sends a conference output channel to the first participant while in the analysis mode and concurrently analyzes the first input stream using a plurality of audio tools while in the analysis mode. The processor returns the first input stream to a conferencing mode in response to resolving the bad audio.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a method, including: receiving, at an information handling device, a portion of an audio stream associated with a conversation; transcribing, subsequent to the receiving, the portion; determining, by analyzing the transcribed portion, a sentiment associated with the transcribed portion; and performing, responsive to the determining, a function based on the determined sentiment. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a method, including: identifying, with reference to a predetermined ruleset for an online meeting, a list of eligible required participants; identifying, using at least one identity-determining technique, identities for present participants in the online meeting; determining, with reference to the predetermined ruleset and upon comparison of the list of the eligible required participants to the identified identities of the present participants, whether a minimum threshold number of the eligible required participants are present in the online meeting; and performing an action based upon the determination. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a method, including: identifying, based upon a permissions policy, a list of authorized participants associated with at least one segment of an online meeting; identifying, using at least one identity-determining technique, an identity of each participant that joins the online meeting; determining, by comparing the identity of each participant against the list of authorized participants, whether an unauthorized participant is present in the at least one segment; and preventing, responsive to determining that the unauthorized participant is present, the unauthorized participant access to meeting data associated with the at least one segment. Other aspects are described and claimed.

The first and second video conferences may be transpiring concurrently. Additionally, the GUI may include a first selector that is selectable to allow a fifth participant to converse audibly in the first video conference, and a second selector that is selectable to allow the fifth participant to converse audibly in the second video conference.

Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed for detecting and correcting audio echo. An apparatus includes a processor and a memory that stores code executable by the processor. The code is executable by the processor to detect audio that is received through an audio channel of a first user during a conference call being echoed through an audio channel of a second user in the conference call. The code is executable by the processor to identify the second user associated with the audio channel that is echoing the audio of the first user. The code is executable by the processor to perform a corrective action associated with the second user to prevent audio that is received from the first user from being echoed through the audio channel of the second user.
