+### Chat feedback
+to use the user feedback via chat injection you will have to setup a website wehre the user can write comments and send them to your meeting.
+In the examples folder, there are two files you can use as starting point:

+* player_and_chat.php
+place this in a public webpage or create a similar webform that will be send to the processing php file sendChatMessage.php
