I'm facing an interesting conundrum and I'm hoping some of you tech-savvy folks can offer your insights. Recently, I installed Zoom meetings on my laptop. It was all fine and dandy at the beginning, but after about a few hours into the meeting, my laptop's fan started whirring – louder than my usually serene ceiling fan

This cacophony not only disrupted communication but also made me feel like I was sharing office space with an airplane. I resorted to using headphones to salvage the situation, but it was less than ideal.

Now, here's where I'm scratching my head: Is this a laptop issue or a Zoom app? My friend, who happens to have a premium Zoom account, never seemed to have this problem during our company meetings. Could it be that the Zoom app is gobbling up more resources than my games?

If any of you kind souls have faced a similar racket from your laptop fans during Zoom sessions or have some knowledge to drop, I'm all ears (and trying to keep my laptop from sounding like a jet engine). Your insights and wisdom would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for helping me restore some peace to my virtual meetings.

Hello,

Since the last version, a few people around me have reported video streaming problems. (Green screen, jerky image or the same symptoms as a false contact)

Testing the capture devices, no apparent problems. No worries in the Zoom settings either (or I didn't wait long enough). However, as soon as a zoom meeting is launched, the flow problem comes back.

Driver update OK
Zoom re-installation OK
Windows update OK
Despite everything the problem persists.

I had an old installer on my PC (version 5.12.9). I installed it and the problem is not .

An element in the last update created this failure.

Would it be possible to investigate?

Thanks in advance.

Hello! 

I am having a problem with Zoom wherein my microphones, either my computer mic or external mic, do not record or pick up the sound of my instrument playing. They will pick up my voice clearly, but when I go to test the mic when playing my instrument, there is very little to no playback of the instrument's sound, and if there is sound, it is very muffled or it cuts off completely. I have checked ALL of the audio settings multiple times, and there is still no difference. I have tested both mics, and both deliver the same poor results. I believe that everything on my computer is configured correctly, and I have checked all the settings. I uninstalled and reinstalled Zoom, and the problem still persists. I reported this problem to Zoom. I have the latest version of the program, and everything is up to date. I have Windows 11. This is a problem, as I take music lessons over Zoom, and the inability of my instructor to hear everything impacts the quality of the lessons. I would appreciate any help that anyone can give. Thanks!!

Just had a class zoom bombed.  The same user was removed several times and reported and he was able to keep re-joining the class.  Why is a user who was reported during a meeting allowed to re-enter the same meeting?  Is there a quicker way to remove and block a zoom bomber than reporting?  The admin spends the entire time monitoring the zoom meeting to remove people instead of running the class.
