Hello,
I am just wondering if there is a way to stop names showing on local recordings? Since the new update there has been a change and display names are automatically included in local recordings.
Is there a way to turn this feature off?
I have found on zoom web an option to turn it off but unfortunately this is only for cloud recordings.
Thanks in advance
Solved! Go to Solution.

Great news! The new update has a setting that fixes this problem.
If you go to settings, then recording there is now an option to turn off participant names in the recording.

No, that's for cloud recording only. We need this setting to apply to local recording as well. Please fix it!!

If mac, you have to uninstall Zoom. Then go to Zoom.us and reinstall. Of course you have to go through all the mac hoops but Zoom gives you step by step to get it done.
On my PC an update and restart fixed the problem. The check box for stamping the name shows up in local record section

I received an email from Zoom tech support regarding names being stamped on LOCAL RECORD videos. I have both PC and Mac. The solution for pc was to update, turn off and back on the computer. in settings-record there is a check box that can now be unchecked to remove name stamping
For Mac it was a little harder. I had to totally uninstall the Zoom app on the machine. Then reinstall going through all the zoom.us (and Mac) to get the new version on the machine (updating mac did not work. Only re-install worked) Once finished, uncheck the settings-record box for name stamping.
I did all this and it now is not stamping my local record videos!!!
Thanks Zoom support

Doesn't work - I see no option on PC desktop to turn off participant name. Please give more precise instruction if these is available. Thanks.
