Zoom Causes Windows Screen Updates to Slow and Programs to Hang

I'm on Windows 10 with the latest updates and the latest zoom Version: 5.17.11 (34827). I have set a frame update rate of 10 fps. The issue occurs when you are sharing your screen (probably windows also) and you have low bandwidth, rather than drop f... Show more

I'm on Windows 10 with the latest updates and the latest zoom Version: 5.17.11 (34827). I have set a frame update rate of 10 fps.

 

The issue occurs when you are sharing your screen (probably windows also) and you have low bandwidth, rather than drop frames it slows the computer and holds up presumably those programs that are making screen updates.  Zoom is not sending screen updates but has somehow inserted itself into the screen update process itself.  I do not have the same issue in the same circumstances when not sharing the screen.

 

I have seen it slow my powerful Windows computer with huge bandwidth at home as well but my laptop and I are currently on holidays.

 

As I am teaching an Android smartphone course, I use a great open-source program called "ScrCpy" to mirror the screen over USB to my Windows Computer.  I first noticed that what my computer's screen was showing was lagging many seconds!  I later noticed that the phone itself was lagging and in one case even hung.

 

I'm not sure what the logic of telling all my participants that I had low bandwidth but not telling me that vital information is.

 

Zoom won't accept bug reports from me and I think that helps explain it's many "features" (I have a host key but not a licence).

When I'm in a meeting (even if I'm hosting it), if I'm on my ipad and try to turn on mic or video, I get an error message "UNABLE TO ACCESS MICROPHONE: Allow zoom to access your microphone from device menu: SETTINGS - PRIVACY - MICROPHONE. or "UNABLE... Show more

When I'm in a meeting (even if I'm hosting it), if I'm on my ipad and try to turn on mic or video, I get an error message

 

"UNABLE TO ACCESS MICROPHONE: Allow zoom to access your microphone from device menu: SETTINGS - PRIVACY - MICROPHONE.

or

"UNABLE TO ACCESS CAMERA: Allow zoom to access your camera from device menu: SETTINGS - PRIVACY - CAMERA.

 

On this ipad, when I go to settings, there is no PRIVACY section, only "PRIVACY AND SECURITY." When I click on that, clicking on either MICROPHONE or CAMERA shows one option

APP CLIPS: "Applications that have requested access to the camera/microphone will appear here" but the list is empty. Thoughts? Ive deleted and re-downloaded Zoom and it's stayed the same!

I have always been able to record meetings on Zoom on my chrome book but when I click on record now it opens the recording window and I can't record.  I used to press record and it would record straight away.

 

It only stopped working this week when I did an update for Zoom Workplace.

I am trying to setup a recurring meeting with registration limits. The recurring meeting has 6 session scheduled. If I set the registration limit to 20, will this limit 20 registrants per meeting or 20 registrants total? 

How can I place a registration limit per meeting?

My goal is to have 6 meetings with a maximum of 20 registrants per session (120 registrants total for all sessions).

 

Thank you!

Two problems with the upcoming meetings in the zoom client.

 

First, non zoom meetings - I usually have a screen of all day PTO invites that I have to scroll through to get even to my first meeting of the day.

 

Second - upcoming includes already finished calls from earlier in the day. Other discussions here indicate that this used to work as the name implies.

 

These make the list in the zoom client useless to those with a large number of daily invites.

After I updated to the latest version of Zoom, the floating control bar for webinars disappeared. I've tried enabling it using shortcut keys, but when I share my screen, it appears in a separate window, making it impractical to keep maximizing the window every time I'm sharing to check if there are Q&A questions or when I want to use the controls. I want to know how to enable the floating controls again when sharing my screen. Also, after the upgrade, the chat no longer auto-scrolls to the latest message. How can I enable it so that the latest message always appears

Cannot stop blur

I have turned off the blur in my video filters and have signed out and back in, but my background is always blurred. Is this caused by some other setting?

Resolved! Visual - My Bright Colored Lips Glow!

I changed a setting on my account so that my lips would have color to them. Now, I can't figure out how to remove that feature. Please give me instructions on how to remove the color from my lips! It has become very distracting at times! Thank you! Show more

Hi Zoom community, 

I'm hoping you can help me with an issue we're experiencing lately. When we set meetings with an alternative host (in the same organization), they use their unique link to enter the meeting. However on doing so they are asked to register and then being told the host cannot register. They are then unable to enter the meeting at all unless using a different email address. Any advice in relation to this issue would be appreciated. 

Many thanks
