Im helping with a small conference that will have translators/interpreter and it will be over Zoom, but have some quirks I cant figure out.

At the conference it will be a local translator, and the mixer connected to a computor that will stream it over Zoom. Speaker and translator have separate mic inputs into computor and they both be heard in the conference speakers, but the local translator should also be an alternative in Zoom as one of the interpreters. How to do that?

The speaker will pause for translators/interpreters to translate and wait until they are finished. How to show the speaker that the translators/interpreters have finished? Do Zoom have a feature that interpreters can indicate they are finished, for example clear color indicators on a second screen from the computer for speaker to see? (Computor will not be near speaker but we have solution for external monitor with long cable)

If a person on over Zoom have a question, how to pass that person over Zoom to speakers and how to make that "zoom translator" speak over the local speakers at the conference? Is there an option the translator can choose that?

Also noted that according to Zoom the speakers volume will be at 20% and translator at 80%. Is it possible to change these so both are high but if a interpreter i speaking it lowers the speakers volume but then comes back when interpreter is not speaking?

Hi,

In a 2 person call, is it possible to use dual monitors to have myself on my laptop and the participant on the external monitor? I want to be able to see myself and the controls on my laptop, but then a clean version of the participant on an external monitor (which I am then taking a further output from into a multicam streaming device). I don't need to do any screen sharing, just basically capturing a clean video of the participant which I can still control while speaking. At the moment I only ever see myself on the 2nd monitor.

thanks

Hi, I have a question. Is there a filter to hide/minimize the glare I see when I use my blue light/computer glasses on my laptop? It is kind of distracting to see myself with the glare of the blue reflection off of my lenses. Thanks. Reflections on Spectacles 

I lead a zoom meeting and record it using Zoom's cloud. I only want the speaker's face to show on the recording  so I make him a co-host and I pin him. When I recieve the recording and look at it, everyone's face shows.  How can I prevent this.

When I am ready to record a meeting, I press the "record button" . The only option it gives is " record to the cloud" and no option to "record to my computer " .  Sometimes, I don't want to use the cloud recording. When I go to settings and turn off the cloud recording, the record button on my meeting turns off completely.  I have tried using a Chromebook,  an apple iPad and my android phone. No luck.

I teach on Zoom 4 days/week.  On those days if I teach for 2 hours in the morning , and then  later in the afternoon I go to teach again on zoom, I find may laptop has restarted.  this is ONLY the case when I've been using Zoom.  on days I don't use zoom I can use the laptop in the morning and then later use it again and it hasn't restarted.  In spent a long time with Apple support and they could not find any reason it would do that unless it was some sort of Zoom setting.  I can't find any setting that would explain that.
