Hi, I hosted a webinar yesterday. 40 people. All were panelists. Saving chat was enabled. Recording turned on. Stored in zoom cloud. The recording was saved properly but only a tiny fraction of the chat log was saved. We had a ton of chats and want to recover the full chat. All chats were public. Everyone from the webinar wants the full chat. We have hosted 100’s of webinars before. First time this has happened. Possible to recover it?

Zoom recording is stuck at 99%.  Work laptop was connected to VPN while recording was in progress.  But VPN unexpectedly shut down the laptop.  Now the recording seems to be stuck at 99%.  There is a temp recording file saved locally on the laptop (video1239184949.mp4.tmp).

Do not want to close out the dialog box that is showing the recording at 99%.  But don't know if the recording is corrupted anyway because of the unexpected shutdown of the VPN connection.  If that is the case, is there any way of recovering that webinar recording?

Webinar access

I just paid for the webinar service, but it is not showing up as an option to schedule webinars.  The platform puts me in a loop cycle that puts me back to the buy webinar subscription page (which I have already purchased).  Has anyone had this issue?

In a recent webinar, participants told us that they could see all the webinar questions, answered and unanswered. I double-checked my settings and it is set for Allow Attendees to View  > Answered Questions Only. Has this happened to other users? Is there another setting that would override this one? 

 

Thanks,
Mary

Hello everyone,

 

I will be hosting the "Zoom Test Kitchen" today, Friday, October 29, at 2PM CST / 7PM UTC. I will be standing-in for regular host, and show founder, Jeff Widgren.

 

The Zoom Test Kitchen in another external Zoom-related Community. It is a "resource dedicated to Zoom Admins, Zoom Users, and Zoom Producers from around the world", "providing a test bed, for real-world Zoom results".

 

The Zoom Test Kitchen is held on Zoom, every week, on Friday.

 

You can post questions, provide answers, and network with others.

 

You are welcome to join - to watch or participate.

 

Register to attend the Zoom meeting here: https://zoom.us/j/89425309471

 

You can watch past episodes at https://www.youtube.com/c/zoomtestkitchen

 

If you plan to participate, please familiarize yourself with the format of the show by watching some snippets on YouTube.

 

The Zoom Test Kitchen often features guest presenters from Zoom. There have been past presentations from, for example, the Global Strategy Lead for Zoom Events, and the Manager of Event Specialists at Zoom, . Both of those presentations can be found on the YouTube Channel above.

 

The Zoom Test Kitchen has also worked closely with ZoomOSC and ZoomISO - products from Liminal Entertainment Technologies, for integration with Zoom. This may be of intertest to anyone using Zoom for Production pipelines or Virtual Event Production. https://www.liminalet.com/zoomosc & https://www.liminalet.com/zoomiso

https://www.youtube.com/c/ZoomTestKitchen/search?query=ZoomOSC and; 

https://www.youtube.com/c/ZoomTestKitchen/search?query=ZoomISO

 

Here in the Zoom Community, I have also previously mentioned another external Zoom-related community called "Office Hours": https://community.zoom.com/t5/Community-Help-Center/Office-Hours/m-p/11565

 

A number Office Hours members also collaborate with, and participate in, the Zoom Test Kitchen - and vice versa. The two together provide great coverage into the wider world of Zoom Virtual Production, Hybrid and Digital-First Events, and just simply producing great results with Zoom.

 

I, personally, try to cross-pollinate ideas and solutions between communities.

 

In today's Zoom Test Kitchen, we will be discussing the new features in Zoom 5.8.3, and the release of "Conference" in Zoom Events - which allows for multi-day and multi-session conferences in the new Zoom Events. 

https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201361953

https://blog.zoom.us/zoom-events-conference-features/

 

We will also cover other general Zoom-related discussion and cover the questions of the day!

 

Again - feel free to join - https://zoom.us/j/89425309471- today Friday, October 29, at 2PM CST. Or any Friday.

 

Drop any questions into the Meeting or post back here with any comments.

 

You can also find the Zoom Test Kitchen at: https://www.facebook.com/ZoomTestKitchen/

 

Thank you for reading!

 

Rupert

Has anyone else had issues loading Zoom pages this week? Every time I try to open Zoom or click into a specific page or open a previously scheduled Webinar or schedule a Webinar or basically ANYTHING Zoom just spins and spins and spins.

 

I've updated my laptop, I've checked my Internet connection/speed, I've updated Google's Chrome browser, basically everything I can think of to help it load faster and all signs just keep pointing back to an issue with web version of Zoom. Pages are slow to load and elements on pages don't load at all to the point where I have to refresh the page twice and click into a different area and then back to the area I need to work in 3 times to see if MAYBE the elements will finally load.

I'm holding a webinar and will be sharing my screen while speaking, but
when I do this, the guest participants' screens will display something like "Host is speaking...",
making it difficult for them to see the shared screen.
Is it possible to set this to not display?

Is there a limit on how many webinar templates can be created?

I have 5 templates created now and need more. However, i don't see where i can add a new template and modifying an existing one doesn't give me an option to save it as something new.

Greetings,

 

I've created a recurring webinar with registration. Due to a last-minute petition for enabling camera access to attendees, I need to convert the recurring webinar to meeting (in order to enable the camera access).

I notice I am unable to edit all series of the recurring webinar in order to convert it into a meeting. My question is: must I convert EACH webinar (of the recurring series) into a meeting? Isn't it possible to convert a recurring webinar into a recurring meeting?

 

I understand that the registration link and webinar link sent to attendees after registration remains valid after conversion. I am concerned because of converting each webinar into a meeting, I am worried I will need to send them an updated meeting link.
