Start Goto Meeting Command Line

Is it possible to start Goto Meeting (GoTo.exe) in command line with a specific camera?

  • Hi Peterzz welcome to the GoTo Community. 

     

    The command line args do not support specifying a webcam.  

     

    Is there a reason why you would want to use this method? The best session join time you get is by letting it run and join meetings from a calendar integration. The last webcam from last session will be used then.

      We sometimes have problems that GoTo Meeting does not recognize the camera or says "webcam is used by another application", although the camera is free (Windows camera app runs without problems) and that it sometimes takes a long time until the camera is recognized and active.

        Peterzz thanks for getting back to me and I'm sorry to hear that. 

         

        If you have recently used a different application, you can open your computer's Task Manager to check for background processes that might be using the webcam. Force-quitting any suspicious processes can help resolve the issue.
