Use Custom Video Backgrounds in Microsoft Teams (for Mac)
0Here you can see how I use custom video backgrounds in microsoft teams.
Howto:
- Download some mp4
- convert it to gif, save it as somefile.gif and somefile_thumb.gif inside following directory:
Path Name:
/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Teams/Backgrounds/Uploads
Tips:
gif files can get huge. You could make a custom thumbnail with only 1 frame instead of copying the full file.
Maybe Microsoft will release a feature which will allow to use video backgrounds soon.
I used following command to convert a mp4 to gif:
ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -vf "scale=1280:720:flags=lanczos" video.gif
this command will also make the file a little bit smaller. You could also play around with the frame rate.
This method also works for windows! But you need to figure out the correct path.
