Individual registration can be very difficult to manage when dealing with student classes. In addition, sharing links can sometimes make the individual link option of limited value, even though it is an essential feature to have. Regardless of whether registration required is turned on/off, I'd prefer to have at least screen names be captured for polling results and reports, which I understand does not happen and "guest" is recorded instead. (I also appreciate the challenges of people having the same name, but that can be managed.)

 

I have heard that you can not have registration required and then turn it on after you set up the meeting, whereby users will need to enter their name and an email address and can proceed into the meeting with the same link, no individual links needed. Will that capture the registration information? That would be ideal getting screen names and email addresses. Has anyone tried this?

Repository for Linux packages

When will be available a repository for DEB and RPM Zoom's packages? It's hard to keep an eye on the updates and download and install manually. I would like if my system find the updates during the regular update.

Issues with v6.1.6 (1013) on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

I updated to 6.1.6 last night as required to join a meeting, and have noticed several issues so far:


1. Others' cameras sometimes do not show video in the Gallery view, but it shows up in the second window that's set to see the speaker.

2. Some participants can't see my screen share.

3. The window decoration that would allow me to move the main Zoom window around are missing. I've managed to work around this by resizing it to about 2x its normal width to get a couple of small patches above and below the "Search Ctrl-F" text field that can drag it around, but it shouldn't have to take up so much space just so I can put it somewhere it won't be buried under other windows.

4. The option "Use system title bar and borders" can be checked, but has no effect and doesn't remember that it was checked.

5. The new tabs feature is interesting and could be cool, but it's super subtle and not very discoverable for a user seeing it for the first time. Toggling between "Gallery View" and "Speaker View" appeared to do nothing because a participant was sharing, and it wasn't clear that I was on a tab that was specific to their sharing.

6. The video on the participant share tab froze, but the second screen continued showing live updates.

7. On the participant share tab, I couldn't use the button to scroll to see other participants. The button on the right side showed it was present and displayed as if it were active, but the caption was "0/0".

8. The main window's minimum height is almost twice what it needs to be for all four of the super-large buttons to be visible.

9. I had hoped that maybe some of the features that have been added for other operating systems might finally show up (video backgrounds, avatars, ...), but no such luck still.

10. At minimum width, the main window doesn't show the user profile icon, making it very difficult (or removing the ability?) to access that menu.

That's what I've noticed so far over the course of two meetings (60-90m and 20m).

Does everyone who attends that meeting need to get the same upgrade/download?  (or just the host?)

Also that version seems to be dated oct. 30, 2023 and there have been a lot of versions since that,

why am i being directed to get a version from last year?  

i was supposed to host a meeting this evening, but the process has forced me to cancel the scheduled meet. 

If this question is answered, how will i receive the answer?                                                                                                           (if i am not supposed to enter my e-mail how will i know?)

Zoom in another country

Hi, I am trying to help an autistic friend in UK set up zoom but I live in Australia.  Been going round and round with help.  Wondering how to do it since the answers to that question didn't show me how to explain it to him.

Thanks in advance

This morning I was leading a group Zoom where I share a slideshow with audio, and the control panel kept disappearing, so I continually had to start over again. There was no time to go to a forum or chat group and read all the suggestions when I was already holding up our meeting.So, like the ancient geek I am, I 'splained what was happening to the group, and kept triing different approaches. Finally around the 5th try got it to work. I strongly dislike how we pay for Zoom and still are expected to spend a lot of time researching glitches.  This is a comment which is true for ALL THE CORPORATE SOFTWARE we use ---- the consumer is made to be the be techie, which involves spending tons of valuable time and energy researching solutions to the problem, testing them out and then, implementing before the next change manifests. If you Zoom employees could pass this on to the powers that be, it would be appreciated.  There are so many of us who use Zoom without being employed by a corporate entity, so there is no IT person to turn to--- and even so, IT employees are busy trying to keep up with rapid changes and none of them say, "Sorry, we are unsure of how to solve this," which would save us a lot ot time. 🙂

I hosted a meeting that was held in English and a Spanish interpreter translating the meeting in Spanish as we were live. I, as the host, recorded the  English version (non-translated) to the local computer version and my colleague ( a meeting participant, not a co-host) requested to record the Spanish version. The participant successfully converted the Spanish reocorded meeting to a video.mp4, audio file, etc. My recording did not convert to an Mp4. In fact, civnersion window did not even appear for me. Has anyone experienced issues like this one? Any solutions? Help 🙂
