Adjusting size of presenter when viewing webinar

I'm posting from the POV of a webinar attendee, not as a host/planner. I am using Zoom Workplace version 6.4.0 on Mac Ventura. I swear there used to be a way for me, as an attendee, to adjust the size of the presenter's camera view while they are sha... Show more

I'm posting from the POV of a webinar attendee, not as a host/planner. I am using Zoom Workplace version 6.4.0 on Mac Ventura. I swear there used to be a way for me, as an attendee, to adjust the size of the presenter's camera view while they are sharing their screen.  For example, you could have the presenter and their PowerPoint side-by-side, and drag to adjust the size of the presenter  relative to the size of their PowerPoint slide. Now all I see is the option to switch between the slide and a camera view up top that is so tiny you can barely make out the presenter's face. If you switch, then the shared PowerPoint is way too small.

 

I realize that if you go full screen, you gain some control, but this is awkward compared to the side-by-side view, requiring multiple clicks rather than just dragging to adjust. I swear I looked through all of the view settings and can't see a way to switch to a view that makes the presentation engaging -- in other words, you can clearly see the slides, and their face, side by side, at the same time.

 

I don't see an option to share a screenshot, so here's a link to a (heavily-redacted) one:

I want to host a 4 day virtual event. There will only be 1 session at a time. 
I also want to create a lobby where participants can network. Even in different breakoutrooms with different topics. 

I want the attendees to only register once for the 4 days. 
I also want to create VIP tickets, these attendees get an extra session. 

Can I do this with sessions or do I need events? 

I believe I only need events when I have multible sessions at the same time over multible days/

New Spotlighting Behavior not Good for Webinars

When the webinar host spotlights a panelist, this now reflects on all of the panelists' screens too. It didn't used to work like this. This is not a good change. Panlists do not like this. Many panelists want to see their self-view at all times so that they can remain in camera frame. If the webinar host spotlights a panelist, then all of the other panelists lose their self view. Spotlighting should only affect attendees in a webinar, not the panelists. Zoom, please tell your product team to change this behavior back to how it used to work so that spotlighting doesn't change the panelist screen.

My organization has hundreds of recordings from weekly webinars over the years. Is it possible to generate a transcript for these existing recordings and if so, how would I do this. All my searching only leads to generating transcripts going forward and the answers do not seem to be applicable to this specific use case. 

 

Thanks

Setting up some videos in Zoom as only on-demand webinars

We are moving from a different webinar provider to Zoom. 

 

Is it possible for me to take the recordings from our earlier webinars, upload them to Zoom, and then set them up as an on-demand webinar?

"TAXES: Enter billing address"- why is this field appearing on Zoom Webinar registration form?

We've been doing paid Webinars using the PayPal integration for years. All of a sudden, Zoom inserted this field into the registration form. It's also forcing registrants to enter a Billing Address.

Is there a way to remove this?

As far as Taxes goes, we only operate inside the United States. So, this field just causes confusion.

Paid webinar registration requires Shipping Address

We offer paid webinars to a community of seniors. Payment is via PayPal integration, but most of our community do NOT have a PayPal account. They pay as guests, using a credit card.

 

Suddenly, operation of the registration page has changed, and not in a good way.

 

When a registrant presses the "Checkout" button, the page jumps to the top, and nothing seems to happen. In fact, something HAS happened, but it's only visible if you scroll further down in the page. When you do that, you see that you're being asked to enter a "Shipping Address". This never happened before, and it's causing confusion and consternation among our customers.

 

Has anyone else encountered this? Does anyone understand it?

Hi. We are organising a multi-day summit next March. I want to ensure that people using screen readers or other assistive technology can register for the event, and to also bookmark individual sessions. I am struggling to find any information about the accessibility of the registration form, and navigation of an events hubs.

 

Any advice on this would be very much appreciated.


Stephen
