enabling music while on a call

[agiglgeorge]

Hi all,

Looking to utilize music from an outside source (ie: YouTube) while on a group call.  I am able to hear the music, but the group participants (students) are not. Thank you for your ideas/assistance.

You can Share Computer audio like this:

Go to Share Screen and click the advanced, on the Computer Audio and click the down arrow. Select Stereo High Fidelity and then click Share. Per the image below.

Please also keep in mind that if you want to speak and at the same time as play  music into your Meeting, you really must be on headphones at your end - otherwise your microphone will pick up the music also coming out of your speakers, as well as processing it directly.

 Hope this helps.

Rupert

Similar problem sharing the way you recommended above--I'm hoping someone has learned about a fix. I had two Zoom sessions scheduled today and the "share computer audio" (stereo-high fidelity) worked just fine for my 1st meeting but when it came time to do the same for the 2nd meeting, it suddenly was not working. It stops the audio from my computer and when I asked my students if they could hear what I was sharing (music playing from Pandora on a tab in my browser) they said they only heard silence. I checked all volume controls and they were fine. HELP!
