Chromebook/Android - Can't broadcast video while sharing screen

[DaCapitan]

Hello,

I just got a Chromebook and I did a zoom meeting and as soon as I share my screen or a tab or anything, it disables my camera and stops sharing video.

It says it does this for optimization.  However, for my purposes, this completely defeats my purpose for using zoom.  I need to be able to share a PDF while the other person can see me so we can look at it together and they can see my face.

I know on windows, this works fine.  But on Chromebook, whether you use the app or in the browser, video is disabled when you share the screen.

Is there any way around this?

Hello @DaCapitan , 

 Zoom enables a share screen by default. Please see this support article about getting started with the Chrome OS.

If you are a member of a Zoom education or business account, the admins could have the share functionality disabled for some reason. Is this your own Zoom account or are you a member of a Zoom EDU/Bus account?

B!
