In order for Mac Native streaming to work, you will need to allow the Vivi application to record your screen and access your microphone: both will be displayed in its own prompt.
After selecting Native as the streaming method, you will be required to allow permissions for Vivi to access to the Microphone and Screen Recording settings. When connected to a room and clicking ‘Screen Share’, the following pop up will appear:
Click on the ‘Open Microphone Preferences’ & ‘Open Screen Recording Preferences’ button to navigate directly to the system preferences. Once there, tick the checkbox next to Vivi under each of the options.
