Hello,

 

I host regular online webinars with a series of speakers and panellists. I can't work out how to ensure that some of our webinar settings feed through to the recording of the event. For example, during our live webinars, we have the speaker image of equal size next to their presentation to provide a better audience experience but when we watch the recording the speaker image is not adjacent and of equal size to the presentation, instead, it is very small and in the right-hand corner of the recording.

 

Is there a way to ensure that the recording reflects the live event?

 

Many thanks,

Catherine

Hi all

 

We've been using the Pro license for a few years since Covid and only make use of it for normal client review meetings and office quick team meetings. 

 

We would like to stream our client event on 3 October (have never done this before). Don't expect more than 500 people on the steam and about 400 in person on the day. 

 

Can someone please provide some advise on this? Which plan etc.? Best way of doing this. Clients can provide feedback on the day and ask questions, although it won't be answered live. They shouldn't be able show their video and no audio from their side. We won't have any polls. 

 

Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Attendee report showing N/A for duration spent in session (Zoom Events)

When I download the standard report, "Event attendance details" in Zoom Events, I am seeing where people who are marked as attended have "N/A" listed for the duration spent in session. There are various attendee reports where up to 45% of the attendees are marked this way, but I cannot find an answer as to why. Any insight on why some people are simply not having their time spent tracked in the session?

To generate Zoom webinar reports you can only choose from webinars in a one month span

Hello,

Why does Zoom webinar only allow a one-month span for selecting webinars from which to report? Is there any way to get around this? If you plan webinars a year's worth of webinars, you need to select webinars in a greater time span, both pre and post-webinar. It's like the system was designed for companies that produce very few webinars. That's can't be the case. Here's an image that shows that Zoom only allows customers to select from webinars within one month.

Running Zoom on a smart tv

Hi All,

 

I am trying to find a smart tv, to which I can add a webcam/microphone, that we can use for videoconferencing. Anyone have any suggestions on smart tvs that have the Zoom app?

 

Thank you very much.

Hello @Ray_Harwood ,

Thank you so much for your previous help. 

I have an event with 1,500 participants, I understood that my only choice for this number of participants is zoom webinar. Can I unmute all participants in one click in zoom webinar? Because I need interaction from the attendees.

So if yes, appreciate helping me out on learning how to unmute all participants at once.

If no, do you advise on another option in zoom to accommodate  for 1500 participants and being able to unmute them all with one click.

thank you so much in advance.

Resolved! Pre-Assigning/Ticketing & Invitations/Join Links that will align with the pre-assigning/ticketing

Hello! 

 

Currently I am running into some issues scaling our current events model, we have now upgraded to Zoom events in order to move our events from being ~100 to 300-500 people. I do a lot of backend work and pre-assigning, which I am still okay doing, but since we are now scaling the events to include more groups and projects, things are more complicated. 

 

Our events involve multiple different tracks - individuals moving from a session with everyone, to a meeting with a portion of everyone, and then moving to an even smaller portion of everyone, and then moving back to their larger portion of everyone, and then finally moving back to everyone (please see event schedule below for more context).

 

 

To make things more difficult, attendees are not currently registering through Zoom. While I think that will be the best option for us to avoid logistical issues, I am not sure I am going to get the sign-off on moving all registrations to be done through Zoom events. If there is any chance of me getting sign-off on moving all registrations to Zoom events, then I am going to need to make a strong case and will have needed to explore every other route.

 

  • I am running into issues deciding whether to make each portion of the event schedule its own session OR making "group #" sessions and breakout rooms within those sessions for each "group project".
  • I want to make it as easy as possible for attendees to navigate the event and I only want people to be able to access the sessions/rooms/meetings they are supposed to be in. 
  • Need to pre-register attendees myself and assign them tickets/tracks/breakout rooms, what is the best way to do that?
  • How do I send out an invitation from Zoom or a calendar invite with a Zoom link to join that is specific to each person and the track they are supposed to be on?
  • We can have facilitators in each session/room if needed

 

I am so nervous about things going smoothly and trying to make everyone happy. Any insight/advice/knowledge is greatly appreciated! Thank you! 

 

Event Schedule/Breakdown:

 

Session 1

Welcome: 300 people (everyone)

 

Session 2 - Everyone from Session 1 separated into assigned groups

Group #1, Informational Q&A: 100 people

Group #2, Informational Q&A: 100 people

Session 3 - The groups from Session 2 separated into smaller and more specific groups

Group #1, Project A: 33 people

Group #1, Project B: 33 People

Group #1, Project C: 34 people

 

 

Group #2, Project A: 33 people

Group #2, Project B: 33 People

Group #2, Project C: 34 people

 

Group #3, Project A: 33 people

Group #3, Project B: 33 People

Group #3, Project C: 34 people

 

Session 4: everyone returns to their initial/larger assigned groups

Group #1, Project Presentations: 100 people

Group #2, Project Presentations 100 people

Group #3, Project Presentations 100 people

 

Session 5: everyone ends together, how we began with Session 1

Closing, Survey: 300 people (everyone)

Zoom Events Meeting Host Question

Hello All, 

 

This may be a dumb question - but I just need to get clarification and couldn't seem to find the information called out anywhere.   I'm using the "Zoom Events" portal to create a multi-day multi-session event.  All of the "sessions" are created via the portal so I"m assuming that makes me the host.  On the day of the event, do I actually need to assign multiple hosts to all of the concurrent sessions or, because I'm doing this using the events portal, will they all just be able to be opened and run.   We are using separate sessions as "breakouts" for discussions but won't necessarily have a speaker/facilitator in each one so there isn't really a way to have a specific "host" for each session.   I would use "breakout rooms" within a session - however, we want to be able to have cloud recordings of each and this isn't possible using breakout rooms. 

 

Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Thanks!

Interpreter access during Webinar practice session

It seems that on certain Webinar practice sessions, interpreters (although added to the Interpretation option in the settings) are not allowed to enter unless they have a unique invite.

The link the Zoom system sends them when they are added to the interpretation setting seems to provide "Attendee" access only, instead of Panelist-like access, which they need to enter a Webinar practice session.  Since interpreters would normally be sound-checked during a practice session, it doesn't make sense to have to be forced to start a Webinar to allow them to enter.

It didn't use to be this way, but for the past month or so, this limitation has been more noticeable.  Interpreters should technically have Panelist access, not Attendee access.
