&slotmode

Gives you the possibility to assign slots to the connected guests

Director Option! (&director)

Details

Adding &slotmode to a director's URL gives you the possibility to assign slots to the connected guests. While the layout switching options of the Video Mixer will be missing when doing this as a normal director, you can still specify &layout via the URL for multiple scenes that will obey the slot assignments (might interest advanced users or inspire user suggestions).

Director Slot Behavior

By default, the director does not consume a slot when using &slotmode. This means:

  • Guests are assigned slots starting from slot 1

  • The director remains hidden from slot-based scene links (&viewslot)

If you want the director to appear in scenes and consume a slot, add &showdirector to the director's URL:

This is useful when the director is also a performer who should appear in slot-based layouts.

Excluding Guests from Slots

Guests can use &slot=0 to join the room without consuming a slot. This is useful for instructors, musicians, or control room operators who should not appear in slot-based scenes.
