Hi Zoom Community,

Is it possible for additional meeting features to be added to Zoom Breakout Rooms for the host and co-host only?

1. Consent to Enter:

   Require participants to “knock” or request access before entering a breakout room. Someone already in the room (e.g., a co-host) can then approve or deny entry.

   Just like in a physical office—you knock before walking into a room, especially if a private or sensitive conversation is happening.

2. Consent to Move:

   Do not allow hosts or co-hosts to move a participant from one breakout room to another without the participant’s consent. A prompt should appear asking the participant to accept or decline the move.

What do you think?

Has anyone else run into situations where these features would have been useful?

Thanks, Zoom Team, for all the amazing work—and Zoom Community for your insights! @ZoomMeeting 

I'm presently redesigning/redeploying our firm's video conferencing solution, changing from GoToMeeting to Zoom.

In our current conference rooms we use GoToMeeting Rooms with Poly Studio X50 equipment (Poly Bar X50 and TC8 tablet)

We run the HDMI and USB connections from the conference room table across HDBaseT Cat6 Ethernet TX/RX devices (Atlona for instance) to enable a laptop to either use the conference room screen for simple mirroring during non-video conferencing sessions or to do 3rd-party video conference joining when an outside party hosts via another video conferencing solution (Webex, Teams, Google Chat, Zoom, etc...) by putting the GoToMeeting Room control in BYOD mode. With the GoToMeeting Rooms, the BYOD mode shares the Poly Studio X50 bar for Mic/Camera/Speaker features AND screen mirroring just fine.

In our 2nd office conference room (built out with the Poly Studio X72 bar and TC10 tablet), where I'm deploying our replacement Zoom Room solution with the larger Zoom infrastructure, the Zoom Room BYOD does not give access to mirror the laptop screen to the TV through the same type of Atlona facilitated HDBaseT Cat6 TX/RX for the HDMI connection...

Why, and what's a good workaround to make this work for Non-video conference screen mirroring sessions and the same type of 3rd party video conference joining!?

My client needs to purchase a Zoom plan. The Pro plan's features are sufficient for him, but he needs one feature. He wants to hide a specific meeting participant or several from others. This way, they can participate in the meeting without being seen. Is this possible? I would appreciate your help.

When sharing screen with another user, and remote control has already been accepted and approved, subsequent crash and automatic restart of the Zoom application restores screen sharing. However, upon crash and automatic restart the previously approved remote control state is not restored.

This is a major issue and even a bug, especially critical when working with or assisting remote users who lack vision or dexterity and no one is around to help them re-approve subsequent Remote Control request.

DEMAND: Whenever application crashes or abruptly stops, not only screen share must be restored but also remote control state if it had been previously approved. In other technical words, remote control state must also be captured and stored in history log along with screen sharing state.

This occurs both on latest updated Windows as well as Mac OS systems.

We use a Neat Bar to connect remotely in our conference room. In the past, when not necessarily in a meeting, but when we're gathered, we do screenshares through the device using Apple Screen Mirroring. For example, on our macs, we click the screen mirroring option, and "Conference Room" used to show up, for years. Lately, that option has disappeared.

Does anyone understand why this might happen. It is still enabled on our Zoom room settings.

I've reached out to the people at Neat and they told me it's a Zoom issue.

Thanks,
Drew

In the Zoom Desktop Client there are options for Settings --> General --> Zoom Rooms -> "Only show when a nearby Zoom Room is detect" and "User Zooms auto-detection" 

Currently there is no plist option key to enable those features on all end points https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0064957, leaving it up to the users to turn it on  

Any plist option to turn those on and guidance of security permission changes needed to the config profile as well would be appreciated
