I use Zoom to record a podcast with 2 other hosts, occasionally a guest for a total of 3-4 people on the line. Is there a way to output my cohosts’ audio to separate channels so I can record the conversation live (either via recording software or an interface such as the Rodecaster Pro)? Looking to save steps with importing/syncing files after the session is complete. 

Ever since I loaded my Zoom account onto a new laptop, a popup block appears at the top of the screen. It has the image of a microphone. When I am doing a presentation and sharing my screen, it appears as a grey block on the screens of the people I'm presenting to. How do I get rid of it?

I host a weekly recurring meeting. It expired last week and I'd like to continue it with same previous id and passcode. Tried using the previous meetings as a template to schedule new ones but that resulted in a new meeting id and passcode, which will throw the group off. I've done this before but apparently forgot how. Thank you for helping!!

Is it possible to have a view that's gallery but that automatically changes to speaker when a Zoom participant speaks?

In our church, we log into Zoom via a PC and then connect the PC to a large TV via HDMI.

When no one on Zoom is speaking, we have gallery view so people can see Zoom participants.

But when someone on Zoom speaks, we'd like the view to automatically go to speaker view.

At present, someone manually switches the views back and forth.

It would be helpful if Zoom automatically switched.

Hello Zoom Community,

I hope this message finds you well. I am a web developer working on a project that involves both authorizing Zoom meeting attendees through a custom registration process and tracking attendance during and after the meeting. I am seeking guidance from the community on how to effectively implement these features in conjunction with Zoom's capabilities.

Problem Description: In our project, we have the following objectives:

1. Authorize Attendees: We want to ensure that only registered and authorized attendees can join specific Zoom meetings. We're exploring options to implement this custom authorization process.

2. Track Attendance: We also aim to track attendance during and after the meeting to gather insights about who participated.

Current Solution Considerations: We are considering the following solutions:

1. Custom Authentication and URL Generation: We're evaluating the option of building a custom authentication system on our website. After registration, attendees would receive an authentication token appended to the Zoom meeting URL. This token would grant access to the meeting. However, we're unsure about how to efficiently track attendance using this method.

2. Utilizing Zoom's Built-in Registration: We're also considering using Zoom's built-in registration system. Attendees would register directly on Zoom's platform, and Zoom would handle authentication. Additionally, this might simplify attendance tracking, but we need to ensure the accuracy and ease of extracting attendance data.

Questions for the Community: We kindly ask for advice from the experienced members of the Zoom community:

1. Attendance Tracking: How can we effectively track attendance during and after the meeting, regardless of the authorization method we choose? Are there Zoom features or third-party integrations that can help us achieve this?

2. Integration and Reporting: What tools or techniques can we use to easily gather attendance data after the meeting? We would like to have a record of who attended and for how long.

3. Combining Authorization and Tracking: How can we seamlessly integrate the authorization process with the attendance tracking? Is it possible to leverage both custom authorization and Zoom's built-in registration system while maintaining a smooth user experience?

4. Security and Data Privacy: What are the best practices to ensure the security and privacy of attendee data while implementing these features?

5. APIs and Integrations: Are there any APIs or third-party integrations that would simplify the process of both authorization and attendance tracking?

We deeply appreciate your expertise and insights into these challenges. Your guidance will greatly assist us in designing an effective and user-friendly solution.

Thank you for your time and assistance.
