After joining the call, if you are unable to see yourself on the screen or hear, check the following:
- If an external camera/mic is connected, check if it is plugged in properly.
- If multiple cameras/mics are available, make sure that the correct camera is selected.
- Check camera/mic permissions.
- If other applications are using the camera/mic, make sure to close them and refresh the browser.
- If you are using a dictaphone or note-taking software, make sure the browser's default settings are set to "laptop/desktop's microphone".
