🌟 Stream Deck Plugin Enhancement Suggestions

Dear Zoom Team,

First of all, I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the official Stream Deck plugin. It has significantly improved the way I interact with Zoom during meetings and webinars. The integration is smooth, intuitive, and adds real value to hosts and participants alike.

As a frequent host and co-host, I would like to suggest a few features that could further enhance the plugin’s functionality and usability:


🔊 Audio Control Enhancements

  • It would be extremely helpful to have the ability to mute the three Zoom audio sliders in the Windows Volume Mixer directly via Stream Deck.
  • Even better would be the option to set each slider to a specific percentage level, allowing for more granular control over Zoom’s audio output.

👥 Host/Co-Host Controls

  1. Pre-Meeting Mute Setup
    A function that allows the host to automatically mute all participants before the meeting starts, with the option to disable self-unmute.

  2. Reverse Functionality
    The ability to re-enable self-unmute for participants and send a general “Request to Unmute” to everyone.

  3. Smart Hand & Mic Control
    When a participant raises their hand and is granted microphone access, a Stream Deck button that:

    • Automatically lowers their hand
    • Mutes their microphone after their response
      (Logic: Hand is raised + Mic is unmuted → One-click action to reset both)
  4. Speaker View Window Management
    A button to move the speaker view window to a second monitor and maximize it, with the ability to return it to the main screen when needed.

  5. Focus on Active Speaker
    A button to spotlight the current speaker for all participants with one click.

  6. Toggle Participant List
    A simple toggle to show/hide the participant list via Stream Deck


    These points are of concern to me based on my years of live experience, which is why I acquired the Stream Deck. Unfortunately, for a long time, reliable control was not possible due to a lack of API access. Essential prerequisites always had to be met first. Even then, only workarounds were possible, which were never entirely effective. I am aware of and very grateful for the fact that the main program is constantly being improved. I am very much looking forward to seeing how the Stream Deck plugin will now also become an increasingly valuable assistant.

    Thank you again for the excellent work done so far.

    Best regards.
