As host I want to be able to see participants during the meeting, but I want to hide all thumbnails for the recording. I know I can hide video during the meeting which removes faces which is good for the recording especially when I'm screen sharing, but I still want to see participants during the meeting. Is this possible?

"Failed to detect microphone and speaker. Please make sure your devices are properly connected."

Hello, I've run into an issue with my Zoom meetings and my microphone. My computer is a MinisForum HX90 running Windows 11 Pro Version 22H2, and my Zoom version is Version: 5.16.10 (26186). My Zoom was running fine yesterday, but this afternoon a pop... Show more

Hello, I've run into an issue with my Zoom meetings and my microphone. My computer is a MinisForum HX90 running Windows 11 Pro Version 22H2, and my Zoom version is Version: 5.16.10 (26186).

 

My Zoom was running fine yesterday, but this afternoon a pop-up window said "Failed to detect microphone and speaker. Please make sure your devices are properly connected." Running "Test speaker and Microphone", the ringtone plays fine, but any microphone I select shows the same frozen input level. The input level varies from 9 bars to 2 bars when I close and open the meeting or I reset the system, but it is always frozen across all microphones selected.

 

My microphone is a USB-connected Samson Q2U. Here are a few things I've tried to address the problem:

  • Made sure I'm not muted
  • Plugged out and in the microphone's USB port to check for loose connection.
  • Restarted and turned off/on the system.
  • Uninstalled then reinstalled Zoom.
  • As per youtube videos, went to System > Privacy and Security > Microphone to ensure that "Let apps access your microphone" and "Let desktop apps access your microphone" are enabled.
  • In Zoom Audio settings > Advanced, I set Signal processing by Windows audio device drivers to Off (Windows - Raw). Hovering over "Test Mic" it says "There seems to be an issue with your microphone, please select a different device and try again", but the message remains the same even when I plugged in different USB microphones or used the default built-in microphone.
  • Updated driver for the Samson Q2U microphone
  • Checked for Windows update (there was an optional driver update for Western Digital Corporation - Western Digital NAS, I did it but I don't think that's relevant)
  • Tested the microphone by running it on voice recorders. Works fine. In System > Sound > Properties the slider on the input volume does increase too, meaning its most likely an issue with Zoom rather than the microphone itself.

I hope this information was useful. Please do let me know if I may offer further information to help solve this issue. Thank you for reading

There is a meeting that shows up in my Zoom app and I have not found a way to make it not. It is not my meeting. The outlook series has ended. The person who owned the meeting has left the company. IT has said they have deactivated the Zoom account and it "should disappear within hours" but it is still there 3 days later. Is there a way I can decline it so I stop getting reminders for a meeting that does not exist? The only options that appear on my app are to join, chat, or join from room. 😞

After a meeting, Zoom auto starts another meeting on a computer on this network

A bizarre thing happens after a meeting. The computer across the room starts up a new meeting. This has happened several times, and caused problems when there were technical difficulties at the other end and I needed to restart Zoom. Then I could not get back in to the original meeting. I turned around and I saw what the other computer had inexplicably created a meeting under my account.

I cannot see any settings having to do with this, and have no idea why it would do this on its own. It is not set to open Zoom on start up on either computer, and in the last year, the only time Zoom has been on the other computer is if it auto opens to create a meeting. Very creepy. Any ideas?

Hello there, 

 

I am using the soundcore p20i earplugs, and suddently my audio start to crop when using the earplugs on zoom.

It doesn't crop without the earplugs on zoom, or with the earplugs, but in other software such as google meet or skype, or even listening to music.

 

I am on windows 11 and last version of zoom (just updated it to check if problem would go away).

 

Before it used to work fine. I don't know what happened, I already researched a lot!

Hi,

I have an integration of zoom in a moodle structure. A have tested zoom meeting plugin and LTI Pro also but have the same problem.
In my senario, i have classes (math, physics etc) and i want to use 1 or 2 zoom licences per class. In a class will be 5-8 teachers.

The Head class teacher will schedule zoom meetings (his account email is bind to the zoom licenced email) but the rest of the teachers must be able to start and manage these meetings.

The rest of the teachers has been added as basic users in university's zoom management but they cannot start the meetings created by the licenced user.


Can you suggest a solution to my problem?

Before you say it's my computer or my laptop is the culprit that the app freezes constantly at a random interval, no. This bullcrap has been showering me with lots of freezes and disconnection issues ever since the new update from October.

 

Devices that I tested:

*My LAPTOP specs (the main device I use because it's the only one with a webcam):

-Ryzen 5 5500u 6c/12t

-16GB DDR4-3200

-1TB SK Hynix P31 Gold NVMe SSD Main Drive

-Windows 11 Pro

 

*My PC specs:

-MSI Tomahawk X570S ATX AM4 Wifi Motherboard

-Ryzen 7 5800X3D 8c/16t w/ Noctua NH-U12A Cooler

-Radeon RX 6800 16GB GDDR6

-64GB DDR4-3600 (XMP Profile Enabled)

-2x 1TB NVMe SSD, 2x 2TB SATA SSD

-Windows 11 Pro

 

Both devices suffered from constant freezes with the Meeting app even on my powerful computer.
