I am looking for a "Presentation Mode" feature that works like this:

- I notify Zoom that I would be presenting, so that Zoom knows it can buffer a few short seconds without annoying the audience too badly.

- When I say "Ahh" and "Hmm", Zoom will remove them - and having a few short seconds of buffering would make the job easier.

- Ideally, Zoom should smooth out the audio a bit... which is why I think the few short seconds of buffering is useful.

My student's parent logged in as normal for his lesson using the same Meeting ID and Passcode that she has always had.  This time it wouldn't work.  When she entered the Passcode, Zoom said it was invalid.  We checked and double checked the passcode and Meeting ID.  She logged out, turned off her computer and logged in again.  Same answer.  I logged out and signed out and back in. No change.  It is a puzzle.  What could be the problem?

Greetings fellow Zoom users,

I hope you're all doing well. I've been using Zoom for various video calls and meetings, and I've recently been exploring the virtual backgrounds feature to add a bit of fun and professionalism to my calls. However, I'm curious about how well this feature works on laptops with 8GB of RAM.

I currently have a laptop with 8GB of RAM laptop [ https://www.lenovo.com/gb/en/d/8gb-ram-laptops/ ], and I'm wondering if this amount of memory is sufficient for using Zoom's virtual backgrounds smoothly. I've heard that virtual backgrounds can sometimes be resource-intensive, and I want to make sure that my laptop can handle it without any lag or performance issues.

Has anyone here used Zoom's virtual backgrounds on a laptop with 8GB of RAM? If so, could you share your experiences? Did you notice any performance differences compared to laptops with higher RAM configurations? Are there any specific settings or tips you recommend for optimizing performance when using virtual backgrounds?

I'm eager to learn from your insights and experiences.

Thanks in advance for your help!

How can I stop Zoom stop starting up in edge when I first start the app (Zoom) up? If there is a box for it, I cannot find it. At the present moment, I do not have it starting up automatically with windows (so it's when I click to start it - it is doing this).

I have a free basic account that permits me up to 40 min meetings - when i try to schedule a meeting the choice is either 30 or 45 - 45 not being valid for free basic account! so why 40 min free but there is no 40 min booking available - am i missing something here!! Thanks
