Resolved! Dual Monitors: I want Zoom in one monitor and other apps in the other

In other words, I am NOT interested in using Zoom on both monitors. So this support page  doesn't answer my question at all.

 

Before today, I could participate in a Zoom session on one monitor while looking at my PDF notes on the other monitor. Today that became impossible. Zoom took over both monitors. If I switched to the PDF reader on one monitor, the Zoom session disappeared in the other. This is new behavior. I have upgraded, but only after today's session. I don't think my OS changed. I'm on MacOS 12.2 Monterrey.

40 minutes 1:1

Hi!

I have the free version. My meeting lasted more than 40 minutes. I thought that since May 2 it was limited to 40 minutes. Is it limited or not to 40 minutes (1:1 free version)?

Thanks,

Audio not automatically switching to Airpods

Until a recent update (5.9.1) meeting audio would automatically switch to my Airpods if they were connected to my Macbook Pro (Big Sur 11.6.2). Now, when I join a meeting audio will still be set to my laptop or external monitor speakers. 
Is there a way to specify headphones as the preferred audio output? I'd much prefer if my meeting audio did not play out loud if I have headphones connected.

Meeting reminders in desktop app buggy?

I have three users actively experiencing an issue with meeting reminders in their Zoom settings.


Quote from one user:  My zoom notifications are beeping incessantly for over a minute to notify me of a meeting. I cannot click out of it and just have to wait for it to be over.

Quote from another user:  I have a video if needed (showing me trying to click every button to make it stop). I restarted my computer twice as well

For now, they've turned off the setting to enable upcoming meeting reminders but that's not an actual solution.  I searched this forum but couldn't find anyone else logging this issue.

Our Zoom desktop app is third party patched and ALWAYS up to date within a few days of release, and I've confirmed the users are indeed updated.  All Windows 10 users, if that matters.

Can anyone help?  Or should I submit a support ticket?  

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

why am I getting the cloud Zoom recording in 32000 x 1800 resolution?  The image is not that great.  I would like to get 1920p  x 1080p or at least  1280p x 710p for editing for Youtube.  Why is the most the most important Speaker view recorded in the lowest resolution? 640p x 360p. It looks bad.

Is there a way to improve the resolution of Speaker view recording?  

Thanks, 

Suzanna

Length of meeting

Until today, I could host a meeting with one other person for an hour.  After updating the software a few days ago, it only lasts 40 minutes.  Has this now changed?

I have created a series of 5 calls, with an alternative host.  The event was added to Outlook calendar, with a join link. However, when alternative host tries to join the event, they get a message: "If you are a host, please sign in to start the webinar".

What is the solution?

 

It is the first time that I see that alternative hosts can't join a call through a link, and asked to sign in. Could you please share more information about it? Do alternative hosts need to be signed in their Zoom accounts and use the meeting ID to start the webinar?

Thank you very much.

Although there were only 2 participants in my meeting today, the meeting timed out after 40 minutes. Has there been a policy change?
