Hello, I recently bought an iPad mainly to use for recording zoom classes but I found that it doesn’t record internal audio .Please can you add a feature that lets us record internal audio on iPad in zoom or tell me a way that I can record internal audio with without cloud recording. It would be really useful for studying and recording classes.

Hi!  I am a tutor and I meet with children 1:1 via Zoom.  I use a Personal Meeting ID number for these kids to preserve privacy (at least to the limited group of kids that I work with).  

 

I am now wanting to host a reading hour for the same kids to attend, but would want to have them invite friends to it if they would like.

I would like to send out an invite with a PMID number that they can share with others and also connect with me themselves.

What is the best way to do this?  I am understanding that I cannot have a second PMID for my account...only one.  

 

Thanks!

Audio - Bose QuietComfort® Earbuds

I bought myself some Bose QuietComfort® Earbuds. They work on everything except Zoom. I’ve gone through all the settings I could find. And still can’t get them to work on Zoom. Any ideas?

I have a Mac laptop.

Resolved! Switching from Speaker Mode When Recording Multiple Participants

I recorded a virtual play using Zoom, and didn't realize until after that it was only recording the person speaking at that moment. Since the whole thing was recorded, is it possible there is a way to switch it to the "everyone" version of it so both actors are consistently visible, or is it too late for that? And how do i prevent this in the future?

I wear headphones all day, and end up in zoom meetings on a separate screen that are ongoing for war room-like calls, these calls usually go on for 8 hours plus.

I want a sound/speaker mute button in zoom so that my headphones can switch to normal audio mode so that i can play music in a non- mono format which tends to happen as long as i am in the call, even though i have very involvement in the zoom call ?

WHAT IS UP with translations? And why can't the host adjust the participant translation settings?

Several months ago I purchased the add-on so that I could get translated captions. Sometimes they work beautifully. Sometimes they SUCK. Let me give you an example:During today's meeting (taking place in French) I had the translated captions on becau... Show more

Several months ago I purchased the add-on so that I could get translated captions. Sometimes they work beautifully. Sometimes they SUCK. 

 

Let me give you an example:

During today's meeting (taking place in French) I had the translated captions on because my native tongue is English. Here is what Zoom translated during the meeting:

 

Check the box on, pop up coffee. I think. Submit.

Yeah. This is only on summer. A. I put? So say, Yeah, you. Part of it that ensemble, is it there. Papa, how.

Our shen mem. Here the the problem. Benefit the validity on per me. I say, I say, prevail. The 2 vendors at the at the problem. Kuma. Meso, c. The. That? Can you strictly. They were wound of a blockage separate of process to projection. Tradikary Se Possible. Ensemble. Abre. In for power. C. Met. The. Kilogram. Dolly dollar. Like. Bye.

 

Obviously this is nonsensical. I also had another transcriber running, here is what was said:

Moi j'ai une question, s'il vous plaît.

Par rapport à un écho, puisque on vous a introduit ce qui s'est passé et donc on est intéressé à savoir est ce qu'ils vont revenir ? Est ce que est ce qu'on peut espérer ça ? Désolé de le dire vraiment directement puisque il y a plusieurs attentes des des communautés avec lesquelles on on on, on travaille et et parfois on n'arrive pas à. À trouver les bons mots. Si, si, si, si je m'exprime bien. Parce que parfois on nous demande et on ne sait pas quoi répondre. Et est ce que il y a une lueur de d'espérance ? Que ça ça revienne. Merci.

 

Which another AI translated to:

I have a question, please.

In relation to ECHO, since you have been told what happened and so we are interested in knowing if they will come back? Can we hope for that? Sorry to say it really directly since there are several expectations of the communities with which we are, we work and and sometimes we can't manage to.

To find the right words. Yes, yes, yes, if I express myself well. Because sometimes we are asked and we don't know what to answer.

And is there a glimmer of hope? Let it come back. Thank you.

 

Why is Zoom's translation so terrible? At least with the second one I know the general topic we are discussing! I can only assume that part of the problem is that the speaker did not have their settings correct (or Zoom couldn't identify it as French). Why can't I, as host, set their language correctly... just like I would do if they needed to be muted?

 

For the record, in the same meeting, with one of the other participants, the translation was perfect.
