Details

It can be changed after the connection has been established. Useful for helping a remote guest skip-past the complex setup of their camera/audio.

You can pass a string name to auto-select an audio device that has a label containing that same string.

You can pass a device ID as well; see vdo.ninja/devices to see the device IDs (specific to VDO.Ninja's domain).

Setting this option to &audiodevice=0 will also disable the guest's microphone, potentially allowing for guest connections that have no video or audio. You might do this if you needed midi-only transport, hidden IFRAME control, or just to chatting.

See vdo.ninja/devices to see the device IDs and device names. DeviceIDs are specific to VDO.Ninja's domain, while device names are not. This web-based tool will also auto-create links for you, just by clicking on the respective device.

There is a toggle in the director's room which adds &ad to the guest's invite link.

Update in V22

&audiodevice can accept multiple audio devices now. &audiodevice=cam,cable for example, will select the camlink and virtual audio cable devices as an audio source when joining.

&audiodevice={device name} will now also now show the selected audio devices before joining, while &audiodevice=1 or &audiodevice=0 will still hide the option to change or see audio devices.
