AUDIO
Right now, audio is controlled by the two small speakers on the Teacher Station. We will be installing better speakers into the room over the semester break.
(These directions below are archived for when the audio is updated)
You can control audio from the BOXX or your laptop by selecting Extron HDMI (NVIDIA HIgh Definition Audio) as your sound output in your Sound Settings (PC or Mac).
Volume is then controlled by both your application (ex: Youtube) and via the TV remotes. Other sound controls on your computer/laptop will not be active.
