How to get guest video above host video

There are several ways to resolve this.

In gallery view you can use drag and drop to reposition the videos.

In speaker view you could spotlight  or pin the guest video making it the prominent video.

"Great question! This is a common challenge with video call setups where camera placement and on-screen positioning don’t align. When your eyes focus on the guest’s video feed (lower on-screen), it creates the illusion you’re looking down, breaking eye contact. Here’s how to fix it:

Platform-Specific Solutions:

1. Zoom:

   • Enable "Dual Monitors" in settings → Video → Meetings.

   • Drag your guest’s window to the top half of your screen and your own preview to the bottom.

   • Use "Gallery View" → Right-click their video → "Pin to top".

2. Microsoft Teams:

   • Go to Settings → Layout → Select "Content Only" mode.

   • Manually drag their video window above yours.

3. Browser-Based Tools (Google Meet, etc.):

   • Install a browser extension like "Grid View" or "Meet Party Mode" to rearrange video positions.

Hardware/Software Workarounds:

• OBS Studio (Free):
  Capture both video feeds and layer them vertically (guest on top, yours below) for a custom layout.

• Physical Adjustment:
  Place your laptop on a stand to elevate the screen, aligning the camera closer to eye level when viewing lower windows.

Pro Tip: Position your guest’s video window as close as possible to your camera lens. Even a 5–10% vertical shift dramatically improves eye-contact perception!

That sounds like a great way to start your adventure! My advice is to take your time and enjoy the world instead of rushing through everything. A friendly guild can also make learning the game much easier. By the way, I recently came across Delta Executor while browsing gaming communities it reminded me how different tools and communities can shape the overall gaming experience. Have fun in Azeroth!

That depends on which video conferencing app you're using, but in many of them your own video is fixed in place and can't be moved independently.

A couple of things you can try:

• If the app lets you drag participant windows, move your guest's video as close to the webcam as possible.

• If your self-view is taking up space, look for an option like Hide Self View. You'll still be on camera, but you won't see your own video, which often allows the other participant's video to be positioned closer to the top.

• Some people also make the meeting window smaller and place it at the very top of the screen, directly under the webcam. That minimizes the angle between your eyes and the camera, making it look much more like you're maintaining eye contact.

If you let us know which app you're using (Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, etc.), someone can give more specific instructions.
