Harmony offers an easy way to define and set a default Thumbnail for each meeting to help you and your viewers identify quickly different meeting icons/templates.

 

If the Thumbnail is not set at the Template level, it can still be defined within each meeting as they get scheduled. Although, if the thumbnail is not set, a broken image link will show up :

To define the default Thumbnail, when creating or updating a Meeting Template, follow these simple steps

 

  1. Login on your Harmony server
  2. On [Administrate], go to the [Meeting Template] section which shows all meeting templates already present in your system
  3. Edit or create a new meeting template and go under the [Advanced] Tab
  4. The Thumbnail URL can be set under the Icons section
  5. Ideal and recommended Aspect ratio is 4:3
    • Background use can match the video format (16:9/HD)
    • Thumbnail recommended format would be 80x60px 
  6. Supported format are JPG, PNG and GIF
  7. Thumbnail URL will be used for the meeting background when not started yet
    • If the same filename with “_small.xxx” exists, system will use this small file for the thumbnails in the meeting list/calendar view
    • If no “_small.xxx” file exists, system will use the filename specific for both the background and the thumbnail
    • Ideal would be to have a full resolution image for background (ex. AUDIO.PNG) and a small version for thumbnail (AUDIO_small.PNG)

 

 

This way, when creating a new meeting using this Template, the Thumbnail will be assigned automatically.

 

You can also update each broken meeting that would have been created prior to the Meeting Template correction.

 

  1. When accessing a meeting through the scheduler, click on [Edit] on the bottom right corner
  2. Then go under [Advanced] and make sure the Thumnail URL is set properly and [Save]

 

 


When going back to the Meeting listing, the Thumbnail will be displayed accordingly.
