Is there a way to get some webinar-like results using the most economical meeting plan?

We are an HOA association and we are contemplating using Zoom Meetings for our Trustee meetings in a way that the residents can observe and remain muted.

Ideally, I would like two invitation links… one that forces muting for the residents and one for the Trustees that does not.   However, it looks like a meeting can be setup in a way that everyone or noone get the extra permission-to-unmute question popup upon entering the meeting.  Am I interpreting that correctly?     

 I would like that the Trustee host doesn't have to specifically unmute the other trustees.    I would also like that the audience members joining the meetings do not distract from the meeting. 

Oh, and the Trustees will sometimes be in a conference room.  We can dedicate one laptop to the "room".   

p.s. newbie… have only used Zoom as an attendee.

Hello. I have a free account with Zoom but have never used it for anything except attending a couple of meetings. A friend of mine in Colombia is wanting me to teach her English online. Would this basic service work for that? Is there a time or frequency limit as to how often we could have lessons through Zoom? I don't really even know what other questions I need to ask. Any info is appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, 

I've been using Zoom throughout the pandemic 1:1 30m-60m. I've never had the 40m time limit trigger secondary to no more than 1 participant a time. 

During my last 2 meetings the time limit triggered and ended the meeting at 40m. I was in a 1:1 meeting and no one entered waiting room, etc. 

Is there something new that was set this month on 40m time limit regardless of participants?

Thank you!

Hello, 

Since severals days, the screen sharing doesn't work anymore on my computer. Either i have the following message "sharing screen is not allowed", either i can do it but no one in the meeting see my screen. 

I have a premium account, and everything was working well before. 

If someone could help me that would be great. 

Thank you 

Help! I've been using clour recording for a very long time and never had an issue. But last month one of the recordings failed to upload. Kept on saying 'recording in process', so I thought that perhaps I was over my storage limit.

That was on the 1 of August.

I've been away on holiday so I didn't think much of it. Yesterday I had no problem recording a meeting, so I thought I was back to normal... but today Sept 5, once again a meeting failed to upload and shows the 'recording in process' notification.

I'm not doing anything different!

How can I access those recordings, please?!

Thanks

When sharing screen with a video, the participants in the last few weeks are hearing a lot of static.  I can't hear it, so I had a member of my church record the static.   It's not the computer because I just brought a new computer and it is still happening.  I also had another church member share screen and play a video for our church account, and the same thing is happening.  I'm wondering if its from the latest update because we never had the problem before.  If I speak when sharing the screen, no problem.  It's not in the edit because I tested with a video on you tube and we still get the static.  This is my personal zoom account and it's happening here, in addition to my churches zoom.  Any help would be appreciated.
