Cant install 5.16.6.382 on Ubuntu: N: Download is performed unsandboxed as root ...

I can't install the latest linux client (5.16.6.382) on Ubuntu 23.04. The install seems to work until ending with this error: N: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file '/home/jima/ptmp/downloads/zoom_amd64.deb' couldn't be accessed by user... Show more

I can't install the latest linux client (5.16.6.382) on Ubuntu 23.04.  The install seems to work until ending with this error:

 

N: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file '/home/jima/ptmp/downloads/zoom_amd64.deb' couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission denied)

 

 I tried installing using "sudo dpkg -i zoom_amd64.deb' and it seemed to succeed but the zoom client silently exits (with zero status) immediately without displaying anything.

 

Does anyone know what to do?

Re: No profile photo when participant turns off camera

I want my profile picture to appear, when I turn off my video. It used to, but no longer does. How do I get it back?

The Highlights Foundation Pride Workshop did not register me for the free meeting at Zoom, which, instead, displayed to me an error. As a result, how do I find my 1970-1971 Highlights for Children magazine Groovy Pig (no “The”) published poem and submitted handwritten manuscript to determine whether or not my sheep character was published as “fleecy” or as “sleepy,” as in my Unity School of Christianity June 1971 Wee Wisdom version of the poem, published as The Groovy Pig, my manuscript’s original title?

Zoom Audio with Ecamm live virtual mic

Hi! I've been having problems with my audio in Zoom. People have been saying that my sound is weak (or weaker then normal). When I look into the Zoom audio settings, I can see that the audio level is low (even if I have the level at max). The problem seems to be the feed between Ecamm Virtual Mic and Zoom (I use Ecamm live to manage my video and audio output via their Victual Mic and Virtual Camera settings). I put my audio level in Ecamm to maximum. I am running my mic throught Loopback and into Ecamm Live, then to Zoom via the Ecamm Live Virtual Mic. Every level in on Max. So I don't understand why my audio level in low in Zoom. I have also in Zoom selected "Original sound ON". My microphone is a Rhode podcaster (a good quality mic). I am asking myself if Zoom is reducing the audio level somehow (even if I have desactivated the option) or if Ecamm is sending a strong enough single out via the Virtual Mic. I could bypass Ecamm and connect my Mic in Zoom directly, but this would prevent me from using other sound sources in Ecamm. I have done the updates. I wonder if it is the cause, because I didn't use the have this problem. Does anyone have this issue or ideas on fixing this? Thank you! )

I work for a Native American Tribe and we have an issue with using Zoom during our Tribal Council Meetings where the sound is distorted.   We have a computer that is running Zoom and a program called Notewise (to record the Audio for minutes) and they are both using the same Audio source (a Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 connected via USB) .  If we run one or the other seperately, the audio is fine.  The issue only seems to occur when we run both at the same time (and we need to do so).

 

I am not sure where to look as I am not an audio/video expert.  I have tried several things to try and resolve this but have not had any luck.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

 

Update - 5/30/23 - I am still hoping to get some advice for this.  Please if you have any ideas, let me know.

Screen sharing and 2 cameras at the same time

Is there any way to both share files or videos and use 2 cameras at the same time? There is a class I attend that is available both in person and over Zoom. The people taking the class over Zoom cannot see or easily hear the people who are physically in the class room because the instructor needs to face everyone as well as his monitor to run the class, therefore the built-in camera faces the instructor and not the class. A second camera would allow the Zoom students to see the physical classroom students but then the instructor wouldn't be able to share the course slides and videos with the Zoom students. Being able to use 2 cameras (one pointing to the instructor and one pointing the physical class would work if the instructor could also share the course materials at the same time). Is there a solution to this problem?

Hi there,

I would like to share my screen and audio with a group. The screen sharing works fine and my audio works fine. However I would like to share the audio from a video that I'm showing. I can hear the audio in my headphones but not the participants on the other end.

My usual fix is to unplug the headphones and have the audio play out loudly so the mic picks it up and sends it. Surely there must be a better way...

I have tried all audio settings in the Zoom window. None, enable me to transmit the audio track from the video playing.

I'm on a MacBook Pro 11.5.2. I've tried to root the audio via the Audio/Midi Setup w/o success.

Thanks for your help,

Harry

I have checked previous post and I am certain that the meeting I am hosting has turned off  "Disable desktop screen sharing". 

 

I don't see a "share" button on my iphone and I have zoom updated the newest release and also my ios system.  What is the reason for that? Above all, I am the host and I still cannot share the screen! 

 

My current zoom version is 5.16.6 (11209) .

Messages from closed meeting

I was sent a few links during a recent meeting.  Is there somewhere I can access them?  The meeting is over and the window is closed now.
