Original Abstract Submitted

A video conference that is in progress is run though a device, such as a portable device. Video of the video conference is displayed on a display of the device. The device detects when a connection is made between the device and an external display during the video conference that is in progress. When the device detects the connection between the device and the external display, the device causes the video of the video conference to be displayed on the external display. When the video of the video conference is displayed on the external display, a control panel is displayed on the display of the device. The device retains the connection to the video conference while the video of the video conference is displayed on the external display and the control panel is displayed on the display of the device.
