Avanserte Snakke funksjoner

Nextcloud Snakke har eit nummer av avanserte funksjoner som brukarar kanskje vil finne nyttige.

Matterbridge

Matterbridge integrering i Nextcloud Snakke gjer det mogleg å skape ’bruer’ mellom Snakke samtaler og konversasjoner på andre chatte tenester som MS Teams, Discord, Matrix og andre. Du kan finne ei liste over støtta protokoller på Matterbridge GitHub-siden.

Ein moderator kan legge til ein Matterbridge tilkopling i chatte konversasjon innstillingene.

Kvar bru har sine eigne nødvendigheter når det kjem til konfigurasjon. Informasjon til det meste er tilgjengeleg på Matterbridge wiki og kan bli aksessert bak «meir informasjon» menyen i «…» menyen. Du kan også aksessere wiki direkte.

Lobbyen

Lobby funksjonen tilleter deg å vise gjester ein vente skjerm fram til samtalen byrjar. Dette er ideelt for webinarer med ekstra deltakere, for eksempel.

Du kan velge å la deltakerene bli med i samtalen til ei spesifikk tid, eller når du avviser lobbyen manuelt.

Kommandoer

Nextcloud tilleter brukarar å utøve handlingar ved å bruke kommandoer. Ein kommando ser typisk slik ut:

/wiki fly

Administratorer kan konfigurere, aktivere og deaktivere kommandoer. Brukarar kan bruke «hjelp» kommandoen til å finne ut kva kommandoer som er tilgjengelege.

/hjelp

Snakk frå Filer

I Filer appen, kan du chatte om filer i sidefeltet, og til og med holde ein samtale medan du redigerer den. Fyrst må du bli med i chatten.

Du kan så chatte eller ha ein samtale med andre deltakere, sjølv når du starter å redigere filen.

I Snakke, vil ein samtale bli skapt til filen. Du kan chatte derifrå, eller gå tilbake til filen ved å bruke «…» menyen i toppen av høyre hjørne.

Skap oppgåver frå chatten eller del oppgåver i chatten

Om Deck er installert, kan du bruke «…» menyen til ein chatte melding og snu meldingen til ein Deck oppgåve.

Frå innan Deck, kan du dele oppgåver til chatte samtaler.

Breakout rooms

Breakout rooms allow you to divide a Nextcloud Talk call into smaller groups for more focused discussions. The moderator of the call can create multiple breakout rooms and assign participants to each room.

Configure breakout rooms

To create breakout rooms, you need to be a moderator in a group conversation. Click on the top-bar menu and click on «Setup breakout rooms».

A dialog will open where you can specify the number of rooms you want to create and the participants assignment method. Here you’ll be presented with 3 options:

• Automatically assign participants: Talk will automatically assign participants to the rooms.

• Manually assign participants: You’ll go through a participants editor where you can assign participants to rooms.

• Allow participants choose: Participants will be able to join breakout rooms themselves.

Manage breakout rooms

Once the breakout rooms are created, you will be able to see them in the sidebar.

From the sidebar header

• Start and stop the breakout rooms: this will move all the users in the parent conversation to their respective breakout rooms.

• Broadcast a message to all the rooms: this will send a message to all the rooms at the same time.

• Make changes to the assigned participants: this will open the participants editor where you can change which participants are assigned to which breakout room. From this dialog it’s also possible to delete the breakout rooms.

From the breakout room element in the sidebar, you can also join a particular breakout room or send a message to a specific room.

Call recording

The recording feature provides users with an opportunity to:

• Start and stop recordings during a call.

• Record the video and audio stream of the speaker, as well as screen share.

• Access, share and download recorded files for future reference or distribution.

Enabling this feature requires the recording server to be set up by the system administration.

Manage a recording

The moderator of the conversation can start a recording together with a call start or anytime during a call:

• Before the call: tick the checkbox «Start recording immediately with the call» in «Media settings», then click on «Start call».

• During the call: click on the top-bar menu, then click «Start recording».

The recording will start shortly, and you will see a red indicator next to the call time. You can stop the recording at any time while the call is still ongoing by clicking on that indicator and selecting «Stop recording», or by using the same action in the top-bar menu. If you do not manually stop the recording, it will end automatically when the call ends.

After stopping a recording, the server will take some time to prepare and save the recorded file. The moderator, who started the recording, receives a notification when the file is uploaded. From there, it can be shared in the chat.

Recording consent

For compliance reasons with various privacy rights, it is possible to ask participants for consent to be recorded before joining the call. The system administration has the flexibility to utilize this feature in several ways:

• Disable consent completely.

• Enable mandatory consent system-wide, requiring consent for all conversations.

• Allow moderators to configure this option on a conversation level. In such cases, moderators can access the conversation settings to configure this option accordingly:

If recording consent is enabled, every participant, including moderators, will see a highlighted section in the «Media settings» before joining a call. This section informs participants that the call may be recorded. To give explicit consent for recording, participants must check the box. If they do not give consent, they will not be allowed to join the call.

Federated conversation

With Federation feature, users can create conversations across different federated Talk instances and use Talk features as if they were on a same server.

Important Under current development. Basic chat features are available, more to come in the future!

Feature is required to be set up by the system administration.

Send and accept invites

The moderator of the conversation can send an invite to participant on a different server:

When receiving a notification, user will see a counter of pending invites above the conversations list.

Upon clicking it, more information will be provided about inviting party, and user can either accept or decline the invitation.

By accepting the invite, conversation will appear in the list as any other one.
