[ARCHIVED] Can you allow users in a conference call to see each other on their videos?

They can see me and I can see them, but they couldn't see eachother.

Hi,  @lucy_rothquel2 ‌,

Thank you for submitting your question! At this time, BigBlueButton (the Canvas Conferences integration) has temporarily disabled the ability for students to see each other during a Conference. With a major influx of users the past few weeks, this measure was taken to increase bandwidth and give users a more quality Conference experience. 

Hope this helps!

Best,

Danielle

Any word on if/whether/when this function may be restored? I thought I had a Conference rigged beautifully, and even tested it ahead of time with co-instructors on a course . . . only to find out this morning that my students cannot see each other now.
