Resolved! Feature request: offer view options prior to entering room

Hi! Several times lately I have felt frustrated because I entered a scheduled Zoom meeting and the view settings from my previous meeting were still active. If a meeting is a one on one, I strongly prefer speaker view, but I want a gallery view default if there are more than two people present. It would make a world of difference to be able to set those default preferences prior to entering a live meeting.  Additionally, what I wouldn’t give to have a setting to designate a default view for the chat window to automatically open when you enter a meeting! Please consider adding these features in future updates. Has anyone found a workaround for either of these things? I hate fiddling with those settings live while I am also trying to greet whoever is already in the room!

Hi,

I have a Free version of Zoom and it states that your limit is 40min for meetings having more than 3 participants then it cuts off. But I recently had a meeting with only 1 participant logged in and it still cut off after 40min. But it should have continued. is anyone else having this problem? Do I have to do anything in my settings?

 

One incident I had only 1 participant joined in. Another time, I had 2 others join in the meeting so it was 3 of us. but still cut out after 40min even though I scheduled our meeting for 1 hour. 

 

is there a problem with my version?

Recording Problem

The recording button doesn't show up on my Dell laptop no matter what I try. It's a brand new laptop so there's no way the issue is outdated Windows. The record button shows up/works fine on my older HP laptop. Makes no sense...help!

Does anyone know about the above different types of basic license?  Some of my colleages using  free accounts are getting notification that they will need to upgrade to pro for 1:1 meeting over 40mins by early May. Is this correct? Is Zoom really starting to cut down free license's meeting time?  I have found this article in Zoom: Time limits for Zoom Meetings. But it has a lot conflicts within the article and I am not sure what to believe now. Has anyone got the same problem?

Hi There,

I'm using my iphone as my camera to video me full length so students can see my full body teaching yoga. This is on a tripod at the end of the room. The phone is secured horizontally, and the image has intuitively rotated horizontally on the phone.

I'm using my laptop placed closer to me to see my students on gallery mode.

Thank you for sharing how to spotlight my full length image, before! I got that now!

Upon further testing however,  my phone/video camera is showing my image roatated 90 degrees on my lap top (so side ways-on) and to other participants (it looks correct on the phone itself).  I've searched how to rectify this but the suggestions don't correspond to the menus/and drop downs available so perhaps the answers are out of date.

Would love to know how to get my image  shown as per the phone is videoing it, ie horizontally. Thanks so much

 I have a chrome notebook. Im having issues with sound. I can hear the other people in the meeting but they can barely hear me when I use the computer microphone. The odd thing is that that only happens on certain zoom calls. For instance one regular meeting I attend weekly, there are no issues. However on a different meeting they cant hear me and i have to use the dial in option. I went into my settings but really have no idea what to try. Any suggestions?

Zoom host sees draft chat messages before attendee hits send

I can confirm the Zoom host can see your draft chat messages before you hit 'Send'.

 

This seems like odd behavior.

 

Please advise.

We are using a Pro account to host a seminar series, and the waiting room is not working at all. We activated it in the Settings, choosing "everyone will go in the waiting room."  When the core group of us met this morning, it did not work at all. I am testing it further this afternoon by checking the settings and starting a meeting, then joining the meeting via mobile from a different account. Still, no waiting room function.

 

We have 60+ paid participants joining a seminar series that starts tomorrow, and we really want this function to be in place.
