Abstract: Described herein is a system that enables a user to filter notable events, representations for which are presented on an interactive timeline associated with a teleconference session or a collaboration environment. The filtering can be implemented based on a type of a notable event and/or based on a specific notable event. The system is also configured to enable a user to search for instances of a type of event and instances of a specific notable event. The system is configured to provide results to the search request that list the teleconference sessions that include the located instances. The user can then select a teleconference session from the results to view an interactive timeline that includes representations of the located instances. Consequently, the system provides a tool that enables a user to efficiently and effectively locate events on an interactive timeline that are desirable (e.g., activity the user wants to view).

Abstract: Systems and methods for hosting a teleconference session are presented. One or more streams are received from a plurality of client computing devices at a server. The streams are combined to generate teleconference data. The teleconference data may be configured to display a first user interface arrangement in which a primary stream display area dominates a display with a secondary stream display area overlaid on the primary stream display area. The secondary stream display area may disappear after a period of time. The teleconference data may also be configured to display a second user interface arrangement in which the primary stream display area and secondary stream display area are displayed concurrently. A view control switch may be triggered to switch between the first and second user interface arrangement views.

Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying a teleconference session are described. Teleconference data including display streams is transmitted to a number of client computers. Each of the streams may include at least a video and an audio component. A user interface includes a first display area rendering a first stream and a second display area rendering a second stream. An event may occur that removes a video component from the first stream. In response to the event, the rendering of the first stream may be removed from the first display area, and one or more streams of the plurality of streams may be displayed in at least a portion of the first display area. Such techniques for modifying user interface displays based on the actions of select users that have transitioned to an audio-only mode can optimize the use of a display area.

Abstract: Described herein is a system that generates and displays a timeline for communication content. The system determines events that occur in association with the communication content (e.g., a video conference, a chat or messaging conversation, etc.). The system adds a representation of an event to the timeline in association with a time at which the event occurs. Moreover, the system enables user interaction with the representation so that the user can view information associated with an event.

Abstract: Described herein is a system that generates and displays an interactive timeline for a teleconference session, where the interactive timeline includes a representation of supplemental recorded content that has been added after a live viewing of the teleconference session has ended. The system can inject the supplemental recorded content into previously recorded content or append the supplemental recorded content to the interactive timeline. Moreover, the system can cause the supplemental recorded content to subsequently be displayed in one of multiple different views. Furthermore, the system can generate and/or distribute a notification of the supplemental recorded content so that participants to the teleconference session can be made aware of additional activity contributed to the teleconference session (e.g., by someone who missed the live viewing of the teleconference session).

Abstract: Systems and methods for hosting a teleconference session. Media data is received from a plurality of client computing devices at a server. The media data is combined into a teleconference stream configured to display a selected teleconference session view. The teleconference stream is transmitted to a client computing device having a display. The teleconference stream is displayed according to the teleconference session view, which includes a primary section displaying a first graphic element and at least one secondary section each including a user interface element having a toggle view function. The teleconference session view changes the display in the primary section to a second graphic element when a toggle actuation is detected at the user interface element of one of the secondary sections.

Abstract: Described herein is a system that generates and displays an interactive timeline for a teleconference session. The system determines notable events that occur in association with live and/or recorded content of the teleconference session. The system adds a representation of a notable event to the interactive timeline in association with a time at which the notable event occurs. Moreover, the system enables varying levels of user interaction with a representation so that the user can view different amounts of information associated with a notable event. For example, first input associated with a representation can cause first information about a notable event to be displayed to a user without interrupting a current view of content being displayed. In an event the user wants to view more detailed information about the notable event, the user can provide second input which causes second information about the notable event to be displayed.

Abstract: A system populates a share-tray graphical user interface (GUI) with content items that are salient to a conference session. The system can analyze computing activities that a user has performed with respect to a set of content items to determine a subset of the content items. The system may analyze the computing activities with respect to share-tray population parameters to identify individual content items that have attributes which generally increase the probability of those content items being salient with respect to the conference session. Once the system has identified the subset of content items, user interface elements (UIEs) corresponding to individual salient content items can be displayed within the share-tray GUI to enable the user to select and share the salient content items during the conference session. The UIEs may be graphically arranged according to relative saliencies so that more salient content is more conspicuous to the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing contextually aware location selections for teleconference monitor views are presented. A system can be configured to provide different user interfaces with each user interface associated with a category of functionality. For instance, one user interface may provide document editing functionality for editing a document, and another user interface may provide instant messaging functionality. When a user is engaged in a teleconference session, techniques presented herein enable a system to dynamically select a location for rendering of the teleconference session depending on the category of functionality being utilized by the user. A size and display properties of a display are of the teleconference session can also be determined based on a selected category of functionality.
