# Presenter Mode
> CometChat Calling SDK v4 - Stable Release - Presenter Mode for Flutter
## Overview
The Presenter Mode feature allows developers to create a calling service experience in which:
1. There are one or more users who are presenting their video, audio and/or screen (Maximum 5)
2. Viewers who are consumers of that presentation. (They cannot send their audio, video or screen streams out).
3. The total number of presenters and viewers can go up to 100.
4. Features such as mute/unmute audio, show/hide camera capture, recording, etc. will be enabled only for the Presenter in this mode.
5. Other call participants will not get these features. Hence they act like passive viewers in the call.
Using this feature developers can create experiences such as:
1. All hands calls
2. Keynote speeches
3. Webinars
4. Talk shows
5. Online classes
6. and many more...
About this guide
This guide demonstrates how to start a presentation into a Flutter application. Before you begin, we strongly recommend you read the [calling setup guide](/calls/v4/flutter/setup).
Before starting a call session you have to generate a call token. You need to call this method for the call token.
Start Presentation Session
The most important class that will be used in the implementation is the `PresentationSettings` class. This class allows you to set the various parameters for the Presentation Mode. In order to set the various parameters of the `PresentationSettings` class, you need to use the `PresentationSettingsBuilder` class.
You will also need to set the User Type, There are 2 type of users in Presenter Mode, `Presenter` & `Participant` , You can set this `PresentationSettingsBuilder` by using the following method `isPresenter(true/false)`
A basic example of how to start a Presentation:
```dart theme={null}
String callToken = "" //Received on generate token onSuccess
PresentationSettings presentationSettings= (PresentationSettingsBuilder()
..enableDefaultLayout = true
..isPresenter = true // set true ot flase
..listener = this //CometChatCallsEventsListener
).build();
CometChatCalls.joinPresentation(generatedToken, presentationSettings, onSuccess: (Widget? callingWidget){
debugPrint("Success");
}, onError: (CometChatCallsException e){
debugPrint("Error: $e");
});
```
The `CometChatCallsEventsListener` listener provides you with the below callback methods:
| Callback Method | Description |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| onCallEnded() | This method is called when the call is successfully ended. The call details can be obtained from the `Call` object provided. |
| onCallEndButtonPressed() | This method is called when the user press end call button. |
| onUserJoined(RTCUser user) | This method is called when any other user joins the call. The user details can be obtained from the `User` object provided. |
| onUserLeft(RTCUser user) | This method is called when a user leaves the call. The details of the user can be obtained from the provided `User` object. |
| onUserListChanged(List\ users) | This method is triggered every time a participant joins or leaves the call providing the list of users active in the call |
| onAudioModeChanged(List\ devices) | This callback is triggered if any new audio output source is available or becomes unavailable. |
| onCallSwitchedToVideo(CallSwitchRequestInfo callSwitchRequestInfo) | This callback is triggered when an audio call is converted into a video call. |
| onUserMuted(RTCMutedUser muteObj) | This method is triggered when a user is muted in the ongoing call. |
| onRecordingToggled(RTCRecordingInfo recordingInfo) | This method is triggered when a recording start/stop. |
| onError(CometChatException e) | This method is called when there is some error in establishing the call. |
## Settings
The `PresentationSettings` class is the most important class when it comes to the implementation of the Calling feature. This is the class that allows you to customize the overall calling experience. The properties for the call/conference can be set using the `PresentationSettingsBuilder` class. This will eventually give you and object of the `PresentationSettings` class which you can pass to the `joinPresentation()` method to start the call.
The **mandatory** parameters that are required to be present for any call/conference to work are:
1. Context - context of the activity/application
2. RelativeLayout - A RelativeLayout object in which the calling UI is loaded.
The options available for customization of calls are:
| Setting | Description |
| --------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `bool isPresenter` | If set to true, the user will join the call as a presenter. If set to false, the user will join the call as an audience member. Default value = false |
| `bool enableDefaultLayout` | If set to `true` enables the default layout for handling the call operations. If set to `false` it hides the button layout and just displays the Call View Default value = true |
| `bool setAudioOnlyCall` | If set to true call is supposed to be an audio call If set to false call is supposed to be a video call Default Value = false |
| `bool showEndCallButton` | If set to `true` it displays the EndCallButton in Button Layout. If set to `false` it hides the EndCallButton in Button Layout Default value = true |
| `bool showSwitchCameraButton` | If set to `true` it displays the SwitchCameraButton in Button Layout. If set to `false` it hides the SwitchCameraButton in Button Layout Default value = true |
| `bool showMuteAudioButton` | If set to `true` it displays the MuteAudioButton in Button Layout. If set to `false` it hides the MuteAudioButton in Button Layout Default value = true |
| `bool showPauseVideoButton` | If set to `true` it displays the PauseVideoButton in Button Layout. If set to `false` it hides the PauseVideoButton in Button Layout Default value = true |
| `bool showAudioModeButton` | If set to `true` it displays the AudioModeButton in Button Layout. If set to `false` it hides the AudioModeButton in Button Layout Default value = true |
| `bool startWithAudioMuted` | This ensures the call is started with the audio muted if set to true Default value = false |
| `bool startWithVideoMuted` | This ensures the call is started with the video muted if set to true Default value = false |
| `AudioModes setDefaultAudioMode` | This method can be used if you wish to start the call with a specific audio mode. The available options are: 1. `AudioModes.AUDIO_MODE_SPEAKER` 2. `AudioModes.AUDIO_MODE_EARPIECE` 3. `AudioModes.AUDIO_MODE_BLUETOOTH` 4. `AudioModes.AUDIO_MODE_HEADPHONES` |
| `bool showCallRecordButton` | If set to `true` it displays the Recording Button If set to `false` it hides the Recording Button Default value = false |
| `CometChatCallsEventsListener listener` | The `CometChatCallsEventsListener` listener provides you callbacks |
In case you wish to achieve a completely customised UI for the Calling experience, you can do so by embedding default android buttons to the screen as per your requirement and then use the below methods to achieve different functionalities for the embedded buttons.
For the use case where you wish to align your own custom buttons and not use the default layout provided by CometChat you can embed the buttons in your layout and use the below methods to perform the corresponding operations:
