Separating microphone and speakers using mobile device during zoom meetings

Hi,

I am a new user to zoom.  Can anyone give me advise on audio setup for a meeting for a group of non technical older homeowners.  Several mobile devices are being used as the main connections to our zoom meeting.  See attached doc on my physical setup. 

 

The issue is audio.  I am trying to create a hybrid zoom meeting,  where 50 people are at an outside pool location holding the meeting and then other people  are watching this meeting remotely thru zoom. I am hosting the meeting remotely.

 

My Main challenges that I am trying to improve the audio;

 

1) Pool participants complained that they could not can hear the zoom people well when they spoke

2) Zoom participants complained that they could not can hear the Pool participants well when they spoke.

 

My current set up is as follows:  Remember these folks are very non-technical. So a mix-minus audio solution and audio mixer is not in the cards as a solution.

 

  • I am running 3 mobile devices.
  • I am running everything off of data and not wifi.  (2 iphones and 1 ipad).  
  • Camera phone is being used as the main camera on tripod - phone camera on, audio speakers off, zoom  microphone off  (no ear buds plugged in )
  • Audio camera is being used as a microphone - phone camera off, audio is connected to Bluetooth earphone, Zoom mic on. 
  • Moderator is wearing earphones and is walking around with the audio phone and letting pool participants speak 
  • IPAD is being used as a speaker - camera on, audio speakers on, zoom microphone off  (no ear buds plugged in)

I am trying to put distance between these three device we are having feedback.

 

My challenge is I need to figure out a solution for both:

 

  1. Connecting some kind of wireless microphone  to an iphone that can be strictly a mic and not a speaker. So people can speak from the pool into  zoom platform thru the iphone. (earphone are both mic and speaker so my current solution  is no good)
  2. Connecting some kind of wireless speakers to an iphone  or ipad that can can act strictly as a speaker and disable the microphone. So people at the pool meeting can hear the remote people speaking from zoom.
  3. Feedback is a problem.

Here is a Video of meeting -  Two spotlighted cohosts - camera and audio  (iphones)

Youtube - Video Link  https://youtu.be/McYbAqdLe0AY

 

Is there anything that I can do to my mobile device to  separate microphones from speakers, so they can run independently. 

 

Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

 

Sincerely

Blazit

Access to Zoom

When I join a zoom meeting they cannot hear me or see me.  I don't know what to do.  I can see myself in my camera but it doesn't project to the zoom meeting.

No Recording Button Available

I recently signed up for the FREE version of zoom. However, it did not come with a Recording button at all. It should be next to the Screen Share button but its not. I don't believe I need a paid plan for this function. Any advice?

Unable to start zoom meetings/webinars from the web browser

When opening zoom on the browser and click start meeting from there, then Launch meeting - the zoom desktop app launches BUT the meeting itself doesn't. It just brings me to the front page of the zoom desktop app. I've tried reinstalling zoom and clearing cache - there was even a point where zoom asked me to download it every time - with no results.

I am able to launch the meetings from the desktop app but this becomes a hassle when using multiple accounts which are necessary for my work where we use, at the very least, 3 accounts. It becomes annoying having login-logout from the browser to modify/edit meetings and webinars only to login-logout on the desktop app just to launch.
To clarify one thing, I am freely able to join already running meetings from the browser, it solely doesn't work when starting the meet/webinar.

Links after removing from storage

Hi everyone! 

We record Zoom meetings once every two weeks as our team unites to discuss a particular topic. We recently ran out of space, so I downloaded the recordings and moved them to our server. Unfortunately, this means that the links to the recording now seem empty. Is that normal? 

So for the links to work to a recording, the recording has to stay on the Zoom platform? They are still saved as I only just deleted them so they will be in the trash for 30 days. Would it be best to simply increase our storage, or is there another way that the links will work? 

 

Thanks!

We are having the next problem:

If a user has a meeting with a duration of one or more hours, and the session is rescheduled (they usually use the outlook complement for scheduling and rescheduling meetings), appears a message indicating that they have a limit of 45 minutes, as if they had a Basic Licence.

 

This situation started today, and it has happened to two users.

 

In both cases they have a Business Licence.

 

¿What could be the problem?
