    Here are the specs for an image background on a Mac. 

    Image only without a physical green screen

    • Zoom desktop client, 4.6.0 or higher
    • macOS version 10.13 or higher
    • Supported processors
      • Apple M1  
      • i5 - 2 cores or higher, 6th generation or higher
        Note: 6th generation i5 dual-core processor, requires macOS 10.14 or higher
      • i7 - 4 cores or higher, 4th generation or higher

    If you need to figure out your processor, here is my video for that .https://youtu.be/L6JXdsr4nSw?t=323

    Let me know if this helps. Thank you.

    Hi Chris, hope it's ok to reply here. I have the same problem as the poster... when I go to "virtual backgrounds" settings I get the message "Your device requires a green screen to support Virtual Backgrounds" My specs are:

    - zoom 5.8.3

    - macOS 11.1, dual core intel i5 processor

     

    So it should be working fine... any ideas? Thanks!!
