I'm using M100, so I can't test to find out.
On my M100, hdmi does not transmit sound, except when playing back a video recording.

My question to M200, M50, M6ii owners , if you have used the webcam utility..
1. Is sound transmitted ? (I'm sure it will right ? as a webcam, just confirming).

2. Is there a 30 min auto off limit ?

Thanks in advanced.

I used it with my M6ii and Zoom. It has not worked with a couple of other apps I tried.

The battery lasts about 2.5 hours. I do 3-hour meetings at times, so this is inconvenient.

You can use one of these 'dummy' battery with adapter, no more battery limit. The link just shows the first one that came up, do search for more.

2 types available, one direct to power adapter, the other connect to the power bank (for outdoor too).
