Sharing a media item to a video conference session

Abstract

Described are techniques for sharing a media item to a video conference session. The techniques include receiving an instruction to share the media item to one or more other user devices participating in the video conference session. The techniques further include capturing an independent data feed for the media item that is separate from a video conference data feed. The techniques further include sending the independent data feed to the one or more other user devices using a messaging protocol that identifies the independent data feed for the media item as being separate from the video conference data feed. The identifying of the independent data feed as being separate from the video conference data feed enables the one or more other user devices to provide the independent data feed in an application window that is independent of a video conference application window of the video conference session.
