# Fan cam: put guests' cameras on the big screen

> With Fan cam, guests join a queue with their phone's camera and you put them on the venue's big screen one at a time, by hand or automatically.

Fan cam puts a guest's live camera on the venue's big screen. Guests join a queue from their phones, you see their cameras in the console, and you choose who goes on screen. Fan cam runs only while the show is live, and guests can join once it is on air.

## How guests join

When Fan cam is on air, a guest's phone shows **Enable camera**. After allowing the camera, the guest taps when ready and waits in the queue, with the number of people ahead of them. The phone tells them when they are next and when they are on the big screen. They can switch between cameras, leave the queue or get off the big screen at any time.

> [!NOTE]
>
> If the browser refuses the camera, the guest allows it from the padlock in the address bar and tries again.

## Put a guest on screen

The console shows the first twelve cameras in the queue, with pages for the rest. You can sort them by **Waiting longest**, **Newest first** or **Not on air yet**, and search guests who signed in by `@username`.

* **Put on air** shows a guest on the big screen. **Shows on** picks which screens.
* **Take the screen back** ends it.

To show Fan cam on a screen, set that screen's source to **Fan cam** in [Big screen](https://docs.luce.show/modes/big-screen.md). It follows the camera on air.

## Run it automatically

Turn on **Auto** and set how long each guest stays, from 10 to 300 seconds. Guests go on one after another, the longest waiting first; the next one shows in the console 10 seconds before the switch, and you can **Skip** them. If nobody else is waiting, the guest on air stays until someone joins. Putting someone on by hand stops Auto.
