A few weeks ago, I decided to host a virtual dinner party with some close friends. We planned everything—everyone cooked their favorite dish, we set up our cameras at just the right angles, and we even tried to sync our meals to feel like we were in the same room. Everything was going smoothly until… Zoom started acting up.

First, my audio kept cutting out. Then, half the guests couldn’t see my video, and someone’s screen froze right when they were about to show their homemade sushi. It felt like a scene from a comedy movie—except we were all hungry and frustrated.

I couldn’t help but wonder, is there a better way to optimize Zoom for smoother video calls, especially when multiple people are streaming at once? Have any of you faced similar tech hiccups during virtual gatherings? Would love to hear tips on making these online meetups seamless!

I love the "new" multi-speaker view in typical Q&A type meeting. Except for the fact that the speaker lingers on screen long after they're done and they're often unaware that they are still on screen.

It would be great if Zoom had a "remove" person from multi-view feature that Hosts and co-hosts could use to remove them rather than waiting on the Zoom timeout ...

I have set the setting Host and Participant Video to be off, in the personal room setting under Meeting Setting.

However, when someone join my zoom room, especially those join through the invite link, their video were turn on automatically when they join my zoom room.

And after that, I checked my setting again, it seems they override my setting and both video for Host and Participant are turn to "on" automatically.

Because I may have some new people joining my zoom room via link, and how can I keep them that their video is off when they join my zoom?

I have been so thankful for Zoom and helping my students and tutoring them at night from home.  However, there seems to be a change in the ZOOM, maybe a weird update, but now I cannot connect with video at all. I cannot see them and they cannot see me and it says we are both in a meeting that apparently no one can see or chat with each other.  When I start a meeting the video does not launch. It says I am in a meeting but I cannot talk or see my student and vice versa. Please HELP.  I called the support center on the website says they cannot find my profile or account!  I have one, been using it since COVID lockdown.  Please help. 

Hi everyone,

We've been using the  Zoom for lightning app in Salesforce, and it works well for syncing meetings. However, we encountered an issue when enabling registration required for Zoom meetings—Those zoom meetings  are not syncing with Salesforce as an event. is this a limitation?

So I only realized recently if as host I type something into the chat box and other participants enter the room AFTER I have typed in the chatbox, that the new participants cannot see it.

Is there a way that I can type something into chat and anyone can see if whether they were in the chat room or not WHEN it was typed into the chat board??

I'm leaving simple instructions to follow for those participating and if there's late comers, I don't want to have to re-type or repost those instructions.

thanks

ベーシックプラン時にスケジュールしたミーティングについて、その後プランをプロに変更した場合、時間制限は最大40分から最大30時間まで自動的に延長されますか？

この質問の背景としては、数ヶ月後（2025年5月）に友人の結婚式が行われます。

そして、リモートでしかその結婚式に参加できない友人のためにZoomを開きたいと考えています。

現状、私はZoomのベーシックプランを使用しており、数ヶ月後に開かれる結婚式のためにミーティングをスケジュールしたいのですが、期間の項目は最大40分です。

この場合、結婚式の月のみプロプランにしても、ベーシックプラン時にスケジュールしたミーティングは40分で切れてしまうのでしょうか？

それとも、自動で40分から最大の30時間まで延長されるのでしょうか？

Buongiorno,

con la versione di windows 11 nel mio nuovo pc Acer Aspire 5, zoom meeting non funziona correttamente

Se ho zoom, anche solo aperto, il video non si visualizza correttamente, saltano le immagini e l'audio è distorto

Questo non mi era mai successo prima, spero mi possiate dare delle indicazioni su come risolvere questo grave problema

Saluti

Serena
