# Manage in-meeting audio settings > The code on this page works with either the **default UI** or the **custom UI**. Through the SDK, let individual users manage their own various audio settings and control their in-meeting audio state. Additionally, meeting hosts can manage settings for other users and for the meeting as a whole. Most of the functionality is done through audio settings and in-meeting audio control. - `IAudioSettingContext` from `ISettingService` for device and join-audio settings. - `IMeetingAudioController` from `IMeetingService` for in-meeting audio actions. ```cpp #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include using namespace ZOOM_SDK_NAMESPACE; ISettingService* settingService = nullptr; CreateSettingService(&settingService); IMeetingService* meetingService = nullptr; CreateMeetingService(&meetingService); IAudioSettingContext* audioSettings = settingService ? settingService->GetAudioSettings() : nullptr; ``` ## Connect to meeting audio Before joining a meeting, enable or disable auto connect to the meeting audio. ```cpp if (audioSettings) { audioSettings->EnableAutoJoinAudio(true); } ``` You can also be update the current meeting's meeting settings to mute by default upon joining the meeting using `EnableAlwaysMuteMicWhenJoinVoip`. Unless the meeting explicitly prevents participants from unmuting themselves, any client instances can override this behavior. ```cpp if (audioSettings) { audioSettings->EnableAlwaysMuteMicWhenJoinVoip(true); } ``` After joining a meeting, the SDK instance may not automatically connect to the meeting audio. To send or receive audio in the meeting, connect the SDK to the audio channel. ```cpp if (meetingService) { IMeetingAudioController* audioController = meetingService->GetMeetingAudioController(); IMeetingParticipantsController* participantsController = meetingService->GetMeetingParticipantsController(); IUserInfo* myself = participantsController ? participantsController->GetMySelfUser() : nullptr; if (audioController && myself && myself->GetAudioJoinType() == AUDIOTYPE_NONE) { audioController->JoinVoip(); } } ``` Once connected, the SDK can also disconnect from the audio channel. After disconnecting from audio, the SDK will no longer be able to send or receive audio until it reconnects. ```cpp if (meetingService) { IMeetingAudioController* audioController = meetingService->GetMeetingAudioController(); IMeetingParticipantsController* participantsController = meetingService->GetMeetingParticipantsController(); IUserInfo* myself = participantsController ? participantsController->GetMySelfUser() : nullptr; if (audioController && myself && myself->GetAudioJoinType() == AUDIOTYPE_VOIP) { audioController->LeaveVoip(); } } ``` Check whether a specific user is connected to the audio channel by checking their audio type against either `IUserInfo::GetAudioJoinType()` or `IUserAudioStatus::GetAudioType():AUDIOTYPE_VOIP` means that they're connected to the meeting audio channel, `AUDIOTYPE_PHONE` means that they're using audio from their phone, and `AUDIOTYPE_NONE` means that they aren't connected. ```cpp IUserInfo* user = participantsController ? participantsController->GetUserByUserID(userId) : nullptr; if (user) { AudioType audioType = user->GetAudioJoinType(); // AUDIOTYPE_VOIP, AUDIOTYPE_PHONE, or AUDIOTYPE_NONE } // Or inside IMeetingAudioCtrlEvent::onUserAudioStatusChange(...) IUserAudioStatus* userAudioStatus = /* item from lstAudioStatusChange */; if (userAudioStatus) { AudioType audioType = userAudioStatus->GetAudioType(); } ``` Depending on your audio connection, you can also hide the audio dialog that appears when joining the meeting when you are not connected to audio using `IMeetingConfiguration`. ```cpp if (meetingService) { IMeetingConfiguration* meetingConfiguration = meetingService->GetMeetingConfiguration(); if (meetingConfiguration) { meetingConfiguration->DisableAutoShowSelectJoinAudioDlgWhenJoinMeeting(true); } } ``` ## Managing audio speaker Get the list of available speakers using `GetSpeakerList()`, and check which of the speakers is selected based on the `IsSelectedDevice` state. Then call the `SelectSpeaker` to change to another speaker. ```cpp if (audioSettings) { IList* speakerList = audioSettings->GetSpeakerList(); if (speakerList) { for (int i = 0; i < speakerList->GetCount(); ++i) { ISpeakerInfo* device = speakerList->GetItem(i); if (device && device->IsSelectedDevice()) { wprintf(L"Selected speaker: %s - %s\n", device->GetDeviceName(), device->GetDeviceId()); } } } audioSettings->SelectSpeaker(L"Device_ID", L"Device_Name"); } ``` ## Managing audio microphone Get the list of available speakers using `GetMicList()` and check which of the speakers are selected based on `IsSelectedDevice` state. Then call the `SelectMic` to change to another microphone. ```cpp if (audioSettings) { IList* micList = audioSettings->GetMicList(); if (micList) { for (int i = 0; i < micList->GetCount(); ++i) { IMicInfo* device = micList->GetItem(i); if (device && device->IsSelectedDevice()) { wprintf(L"Selected mic: %s - %s\n", device->GetDeviceName(), device->GetDeviceId()); } } } audioSettings->SelectMic(L"Device_ID", L"Device_Name"); } ``` ## Mute or unmute audio Mute the local user's audio with `IMeetingAudioController`. Additionally, if the meeting supports participants muting or unmuting their own audio, use the `MuteAudio(userId)` or `UnMuteAudio(userID)`. ```cpp if (meetingService) { IMeetingAudioController* audioController = meetingService->GetMeetingAudioController(); IMeetingParticipantsController* participantsController = meetingService->GetMeetingParticipantsController(); IUserInfo* myself = participantsController ? participantsController->GetMySelfUser() : nullptr; if (audioController && myself) { // Mute self audioController->MuteAudio(myself->GetUserID()); // Unmute self if allowed if (audioController->CanUnMuteBySelf()) { audioController->UnMuteAudio(myself->GetUserID()); } } } ``` If the current user is the meeting's host, they can mute the other meeting participants' audio. For privacy reasons, the host cannot force another participant to unmute their audio. ```cpp if (meetingService) { IMeetingAudioController* audioController = meetingService->GetMeetingAudioController(); if (audioController) { audioController->MuteAudio(targetUserId); } } ``` The host or co-host can also request that another participant unmute. ```cpp if (meetingService) { IMeetingAudioController* audioController = meetingService->GetMeetingAudioController(); if (audioController) { audioController->UnMuteAudio(targetUserId); } } ``` The host can also mute all attendees' audio simultaneously. ```cpp if (meetingService) { IMeetingAudioController* audioController = meetingService->GetMeetingAudioController(); if (audioController) { audioController->MuteAudio(0, true); } } ``` ## Stop incoming audio The SDK supports stopping your device from receiving audio while staying connected to the audio channel. This lets your microphone continue capturing audio and sending it to other meeting participants, and prevents your device from playing any audio produced by others. ```cpp if (meetingService) { IMeetingAudioController* audioController = meetingService->GetMeetingAudioController(); if (audioController) { audioController->StopIncomingAudio( !audioController->IsIncomingAudioStopped()); } } ``` ---
