Prior to the start of a session, the track lead will need to create a new On-Air Hangout. Before turning on the broadcast, the Track Lead will copy the Hangout URL and the !YouTube URL (which can be shown by clicking the “Embed” link) into the "Edit Hangout Details" form on Summit for that session. These instructions are for the track leads or session leads who will be running a virtual UDS session. They are not needed for people who are participating on a session. For participation see [[UDS/Hangouts]]

== Starting the Hangout ===

= Viewing Sessions =

Summit provides a Session page that embeds the !YouTube broadcast video, the Etherpad document, and a Web Chat widget configured for the correct IRC channel. A small javascript process will periodically check for the availability of the !YouTube broadcast URL and automatically update the page so that users do not need to refresh.

If the user is one of the “required” participants, as designated by the Track Lead or Session Drafter, will additionally be presented with a link to join the On-Air Hangout. Additional participants can join the On-Air Hangout if given the Hangout URL by somebody already there.

Verifying your Account

You will need to have a Verified YouTube profile before you can start an On-Air Hangout. You will be prompted to do this when you first attempt to create an On-Air Hangout, and the process will send a verification token over SMS to your mobile phone.

alt Verification

When the session is to begin, the Track Lead will press the “Start Broadcast” button (only available to the person who created the Hangout) to begin streaming the Hangout video. At the end of the session, the Track Lead will end the broadcast, which will then save the recorded video to YouTube for future viewing.
