Loud static being detected by my microphone after 15 minutes

 

This happens randomly on calls with no apparent reason. I have to switch to another microphone (I have two monitors with built in webcam) and then switch back and it is fine. The noise is in the recording but I do not hear it but I can see the microphone level in the zoom call is bouncing around at the max level. Other callers hear wildly loud static (not as regular as white noise).

 

*Additionally, this does not happen in Microsoft Teams meetings.

 

I see there is a long history of this happening in Zoom calls. Meetings are the core function of my work but the pro plan does not include support. Please, any ideas are welcome!

Meeting ID

How can I ensure that when I change the date or time of a meeting that the meeting ID and passcode remain the same?

How can I use the Required Registration feature in this situation?

Set up: I currently have Zoom Workplace Pro
Current status: I have an existing invite for recurring weekly meetings for my membership with members already added to the meeting. 

What I'm trying to do:  I want to edit that existing weekly meeting to add a registration link for potential new members to join one time for free.  I can edit the current recurring series to make it required to register. 

 

But I don't want my existing members to have to register.  Since they already have the invite on their calendars with the zoom link to join the meeting, they will not have to register for the event each week.  Is that correct?  I want to provide the registration link to new people so that they receive the email and are able to add the session to their calendars.  

Is my thought process correct?  Please advise.  Thanks

Rosie

Problem

1. Recently had hard drive scrubbed after a suspected hack. All pwords etc lost.

2. Open Zoom app.

3. I don't know my password, need a new one. Click forgot password.

3. Zoom has changed, some gastly web page opens.

4. No option to change password unless you know your password...I can no longer use Zoom on my work PC.

 

In case anyone from Zoom reads this, the virtual assistant sucks as does the web browser stuff!

and

What was a simple little app that was great now looks like a bloated monster.

I may have to stop using Zoom alltogether and switch to Teams even though it is rubbish compared to original Zoom it is still better than the new Zoom by light years.

Does anyone know if it would be possible to have the call with my group of students, but instead of sending them to breakout rooms, I could keep everyone within the main call, and I could create private voice channels between students and groups, which I can easily switch between or even listen and talk to all at once, or per group?

Bluetooth headset switch to HFP profile on linux zoom-5.17.0.1682

I was a happy user of zoom on linux for past years. However with some recent update zoom no longer collaborates with pipewire/wireplumber to allow the automated switch of my headset mode from A2DP to HFP.

 

Instead of opening the recording stream and letting the linux sound server do its magic of switching the profile, zoom tries to enumerate the available mic devices (and finds none,  as the headset is still in the A2DP mode - i.e. no mic in the configuration) and zoom seems never to open the input stream (I can't see any Source Output in pactl list).

I tested this with 2 my headsets (Sony WH-1000XM4 and OpenComm by Shokz) and got identical results.

Other videoconf solutions (including the browser-based) work w/o issues.

 

I do have "ZOOM VoiceEngine" in the pipewire bluetooth policy exception list:

bluetooth_policy.policy = {
-- Whether to store state on the filesystem.
["use-persistent-storage"] = true,

-- Whether to use headset profile in the presence of an input stream.
["media-role.use-headset-profile"] = true,

-- Application names correspond to application.name in stream properties.
-- Applications which do not set media.role but which should be considered
-- for role based profile switching can be specified here.
["media-role.applications"] = {
"Firefox", "Chromium input", "Google Chrome input", "Brave input",
"Microsoft Edge input", "Vivaldi input", "ZOOM VoiceEngine",
"Telegram Desktop", "telegram-desktop", "linphone", "Mumble",
"WEBRTC VoiceEngine", "Skype", "Firefox Developer Edition", "virt-manager", "Virt Viewer"
},
}

 

However, when I induce the headset autoswitch by starting and skype test call for example, zoom reconnects to the bluetooth mic immediately and stays connected until I leave the call.

 

I'm happy to provide any debugging to make this functionality working again.

The best way to achieve it - is to set the media.role = Communication on the recording stream.

I have encountered an issue with participant registration for my upcoming event. Although I did not select the option to require participants to provide their last name, Zoom automatically requests this information during registration.

As the event organizer, I do not need this information, and my participants should not be obligated to provide their last name. Could you please explain why Zoom is enforcing this requirement and how I can disable or remove this field from the registration form?
