How to Turn off Participants Names on Screen w/ Latest Update??

BrettH

In the prior version of Zoom, participants names were not displayed on screen during gallery mode in the recording. The new update now burns these names in the corner of each participant's window.

 

We record these meetings and overlay our own custom graphics during post - production.

 

Is there a way to remove these screen names?? I would like a "clean" video recording of the gallery view.

 

Any guidance you might have is welcome, thanks!

Having the same issue. Did you ever find a solution? "Always display participant name on their videos" is unchecked in both the local client and cloud settings.

Any solutions?
