You can find all of your controls in the navigation bar, at the bottom of your browser window. This section will always be visible during your call. You will also find three very important indicators at the top of the screen.

1. Room ID. This will be your broadcaster’s Source Elements username. They will send a link via email for you to join. 
2. Main Levels. This is the audio coming from the session broadcaster - it is view only.
3. Broadcaster volumen fader. This fader will allow you to control the volume of the audio you are receiveing from the session broadcaster.
4. Session owner details. A section with the name of the user broadcasting the session.
5. Output device. A dropdown menu which allows you to configure the device through which you will be receiving the session's audio.
6. Buffer. On your session, the buffer setting manages the trade-off between playback stability and latency. The higher the buffer value, the higher the possibility of avoiding audible packet loss. On the other hand, a higher buffer value means a longer communication delay. If you or your remote connection are on cable or DSL, a higher buffer is recommended.
7. Maximum receive resolution. The resolution for the video/broadcast you will be receiving. By default, it is set to "Full HD", but you can downgrade it to Low, Medium (SD) or High(HD).
8. Broadcast display. The content being displayed by the broadcaster.
9. Pin or unpin icon. This will allow you to pin the content being broadcast over any other content (like participant videos).
10. Picture-in-picture. A desktop-exclusive feature which allows you to float a small, resizable video window of the Source-Nexus Gateway session.
11. Full-screen icon. This will allow you to convert the content being shared into a full-screen display.
12. Your video. When sharing your video (via physical or virtual camera), your video will be displayed.
13. Muted/mic-on visual indicator. This indicator will be red when you have muted your microphone or white when you have your microphone open.
14. Broadcaster video. If the session broadcaster is sharing their video, it will be displayed there.
15. Level meters. The meters will indicate the volume for the broadcaster in the call in dB.
16. Broadcaster muted/mic-on visual indicator. This indicator will be red when the broadcaster has muted their microphone or white when they have their microphone open.
17. Record. Clicking this will record your audio (only yours), for a maximum of 90 minutes. After stopping, a .wav file will be downloaded to your computer.
18. Push to talk. Pressing the spacebar will allow other participants to hear you, even if you are muted. When your talkback microphone is open, the button will be yellow and read “Release spacebar to mute” instead. 
19. Sharing panel. When screen sharing is on, the indicator will be green. If no screen is being shared, the indicator will be gray instead.
20. Mic on/off. This button will allow you to turn your microphone on/off. This is not a toggle - unlike the push to talk button. You can configure your microphone in the Chat Settings (button 8) 
21. Camera on/off. This button will allow you to turn your camera on/off for other participants to see you. You can configure your camera in the Chat settings (button 8). 
22. Chat settings. The chat settings menu allows you to both enable and change your: 
    1. Microphone (output). 
    2. Camera device. 
    3. Speakers (input) - these cannot be disabled. 
23. Leave. Clicking this button will remove you from the call. 
24. Host information. Depending on the host's privacy level settings on the user dashboard, you will see their contact information.
25. Participants list. The participants list section will list all participants - including those that do not have their cameras on. 
26. In-call messaging. This section will allow you to send messages to other participants during the call.
