I use Zoom for teaching online piano lessons. With nearly everyone the original sound setting works very well, but with one pupil, as soon as he enables original sound his audio becomes almost inaudibly quiet. He's using a Samsung M53 for the meeting. He says he can't access a microphone audio level setting on the phone once the meeting is running. Any ideas?

Resolved! Virtual background stopped working

I have just installed Ubuntu 22.04 on my PC, I previously used Ubuntu 20.04.

 

Since the OS upgrade, and reinstallation of the Zoom client, I can no longer use Virtual Background.

 

If I go to Settings and select Virtual Background I can see the images available (including some of my own that I added. Then nothing until the "I have a green screen" checkbox. This is actually new behaviour as earlier this morning it showed the colour of the green screen, although it wasn't green and clicking on the colour did nothing, i.e. I was not shown any colours to select.

 

Confusingly, if I select an image, I see that image as my background while in the Virtual Background menu option. However, when I go to the Video option, all I see as my background is my green screen. Returning to the Virtual Background option also only shows the green screen, not the background image I selected.

 

This used to work perfectly and the only difference is the new version of Ubuntu - and possibly a later version of the client; I'm running version 5.13.7 (683). Checking for updates states I am on the latest version.

 

Clicking the Virtual Background setting on my account appears to do nothing.

 

Any advice gratefully received.

Hello. I work for a corporation. Every time it installs a Zoom update, I need to change two things...1. I need to change the display to HD Quality and 2. Dual Monitors needs to be turned on. 

Today, after installing a new version, i turned on the HD Quality but the "dual monitors" is no longer in the same place (Settings, General). Was it moved? When I do a search for "dual monitors" in Settings, it does not show where to turn it on. 

 

I use Zoom daily and need it to work with both my monitors. 

 

Thanks, 

Ken

Ability to Customize Name Tag Position and Visibility on Screen

Hello,

I am writing to submit a feature request regarding the on-screen name tag in Zoom. The fixed position of the name tag, located at the bottom-left of the screen, is a constant and significant distraction.

For many users, including myself, this detail can be very difficult to ignore due to a strong obsessive focus on visual elements. It directly impacts my ability to concentrate during meetings and especially while giving presentations or leading a class.

I kindly request that you consider adding a feature that allows users to:

1. **Move the name tag:** Let users freely drag and drop the name tag to any position on the screen.
2. **Hide the name tag:** Provide an option to make the name tag completely invisible.

I believe this is a common issue for a large number of users who rely on Zoom for professional and educational purposes. Implementing this feature would greatly improve the user experience and reduce unnecessary visual clutter for people who are sensitive to it.

Thank you for your consideration.

I have a new Dell laptop and just installed zoom. (Zoom would never work on my lenovo). However, the integrated camera does not turn on. The white light turns on as if the camera was working, but there is no actual video, only a camera with a line through it. When I go to the settings, the only camera option it gives me is "USB Camer". I have no idea why and i obviously don't have a camera connected through a USB. I tried restarting. My settings already give permission to access camera. What else can i do?

I cannot add/change my virtual background because Zoom crashes when the open file dialog box appears. The cursor will spin for a minute, then zoom will crash. Any troubleshooting ideas would be welcome. I have already uninstalled using the clean uninstaller tool, and then reinstalled. The problem persists and occurs on Zoom only.

This is what it looks like just before crashing. The dialog appears, the cursor changes to the "waiting cursor",  you cannot interact with the screen, then it crashes. It's not intermittent - it's every single time.

I just updated to Version 5.9.3 (3169) and the issue is resolved.

I have a process where I need to copy the text from the AI generated smart chapter text and paste it into a document. I have never had a problem until this week. 

Step one - I go to the first smart chapter, select it and then move the cursor down to where the summary is displayed below it and copy and paste it into my document. 
Step two - I try to do the same thing for chapter 2. I select it and the text I need to copy is displayed, however, if I move my cursor off of the chapter so I can select the text I need to copy, it instantly reverts back to the text from the first chapter. 

Thanks in advance for any help!
