Webex App | Share content in a meeting (2024)

During a meeting, select .

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

• Optimization drop-down list:

  • Automatically Optimize—Chooses the best optimization for your content type.

  • Optimize for text and images—Displays text and images in your shared content at the highest resolution and clarity possible.

  • Optimize for motion and video—The video plays back much more smoothly, as some resolution is sacrificed in favor of a higher frame rate to reduce lag and increase fluidity in your shared video, animation, or dynamic content.
