When I share my screen - the screen I am sharing appears as a super tiny screen, 3 inches by 3 inches.  I cannot make it bigger.  I have tried every setting in settings.  Nothing changes.  My shared screen appears as this little tiny screen attached to the top of the screen in the middle or the bottom.

Zoom noise suppression affecting shared screen audio (Ableton Live)

Hello, I've been wrestling with this weird problem for over 8 hours now. I have a live session with nearly 20 people tomorrow and can't seem to figure out how to resolve this.

The problem is basically this, when I share my screen and audio of Ableton Live so that participants can see and hear what I'm doing, Zoom seems to glitch/suppress the audio when it plays quietly. It's inconsistent when this is happening but in general, it seems to happen when there are less sounds playing at a time or the sounds are quieter. It seems like it would be the noise suppression that's trying to remove the sound coming from Ableton when it drops below a certain loudness threshhold? Sometimes when I stop sharing the screen this glitch still happens for a while.

I'm using original audio for musicians' settings, tried any combination of audio settings I can think of, I've tried routing the audio through Windows 11 drivers and my Focusrite audio interface, also tried VB Cable and Voicemeeter. I've uninstalled zoom and re-installed the most recent version.

I'm using a DELL XPS 15 9530 with Windows 11. I've read the article about some issue with audio enhancing effects and potential audio enhancing software that can cause this issue and disabled everything that could be causing this and still nothing.

After 8 hours of trying to solve this Zoom just keeps doing the same thing when fewer elements are playing or they get quieter something switches and the audio sounds glitched/empty/filtered in a weird way until I turn the volume of the signal up and it 'clicks' back into place.



Please help 😕

Participant - joining a meeting

Hello all... a pretty simple question....

 

I'm going to be tutoring a student.

Is there anything that the student needs to download to be able to log into a meeting with me ?

 

Thanks in advance for your answer.

I am a Zen meditation teacher who uses Zoom to reach my group. On Sundays during services, we do meditation for two 30-minute periods. It is during that time that traditionally, the teacher meets with students for one-on-one interviews in private. Breakout sessions seem like a good way to do this, but as I understand it, even if you have a session with only one person, it needs to be set up in advance. It would mean having all students at least assigned to breakouts, one-on-one with me. But, I don't understand how to 1) start as session during the silent meditation period without disturbing attendees, 2) signal to the next student that it is his or her turn to join me in the breakout session, and finally 3) given that my teacher may want to also occasionally offer such meetings, how to set him up as the host of those sessions that he would take part in, one-on-one.

After updating to "workplace," Zoom is unusable. When I join or start a meeting, the Zoom window disappears. This means I can hear the meeting, but I cannot see it/unmute myself/turn on my camera/see shared screens/leave the meeting. When I right click the zoom icon in my taskbar, it says there are no available windows. This is not a problem of having too many windows open and losing sight of it, the window disappears entirely. Has anyone encountered (perhaps fixed) this problem? I have updated the app multiple times after the original update to workplace, and the problem persists. I have also deleted and re-downloaded the Zoom app, and this did not fix it.

I have been unable to share a recording of a meeting with the external attendees of the meeting.  Although I have checked the box to allow everyone with a link to the recording to view it, they are getting an error that says:
"Due to organizational policies, you cannot access this resource from this network location."  

 

Does this error mean that it is MY organization's policies or their own policies that prevent them from accessing the recording?

In some of my meetings, I am having trouble with my video automatically and repeatedly switching itself off.

I manually click 'start camera' and the video comes back on again, but it then turns itself off again, sometimes after a few seconds, sometimes after a few minutes. It can do this sometimes 20-30 times during a call with no obvious reason.

 

I only have this issue in some of my meetings, but not all. Please help!

When viewing a Shared Screen, there used to be an option under the View Menu to Hide Video Panel. This option has now disappeared, which means that the video thumbnails of Participants is always present obscuring part of the screen. It can be minimised but still leaves a grey rectangle on screen.

I have tried to contact Support but they are not grasping the problem.

 

I AM NOT screen sharing, I AM VIEWING someone else's Shared Screen.

 

I and every other member of my Group need to be able to completely hide the Video Panel when viewing a shared screen.
Why has this option been removed & can it please be reinstated?

 

Thanks

My camera will not activate during a zoom call. I will activate when I run a diagnostic to test voice and camera.

I am in a situation where multiple Zoom sessions are separated by about 10 minutes.  Each session will be about an hour.  Can anyone tell me if it is possible to start a new recorded meeting session while the recording from a previous session is being processed?  

 

And are there limits?  We plan on using Zoom's cloud option - will that help?

I appreciate any feedback!
