Video reflects other participants?

Hello. The video of some particpants reflects others + host and suffers multiple lags. It doesn't seem to happen to anyone else outside this exact combination of participants and it started happening around a month ago, although we had been meeting up for some weeks already. Everyone has already uninstalled and reinstalled Zoom at least once. What can we do?

 

It's a bit hard to explain in words so I attached an image. Hope this helps, thank you so much to whoever can add their expertise.

Zoom videos are mirrored by default, because it looks more natural to see yourself reflected back at you in that way. Other participants still see the non-mirrored, normal you. You can turn this mirroring feature off, but it's disorienting and takes some getting used to.

Thank you, but sadly that wasn't what I was referring to.

 

The issue is that the videos of other participants (say, A and B) appear in participant's C video, and their own starts to lag to the point it only shows the other participants' videos. I attached an image in my original post. 

 

Since everything starts to lag and not show what our cameras should be recording, we can't use video anymore. Which is weird, because it literally doesn't happen with any other combination of people we've had videocalls with, only with this specific combination of people. 

 

Again, thank you for taking the time to answer!!
