I have a desktop PC with an old i7 CPU, 16Gb RAM, Geforce GTX 1650 GPU and Windows running on a SSD.

When I open the Zoom app, even without starting a call, my computer slows down. The mouse pointer starts to jump on screen instead of having a smooth flow.

Even when I'm in a Zoom call the resources are not topped. Zoom uses around 3% CPU, and overall GPU never crosses the 30% threshold and is below 50 degrees Celsius. RAM is less than 90% used and CPU is less than 20% overall.

I tried disabling hardware acceleration but it didn't worked. Again I don't have to start a call to see the mouse pointer jumping around the screen. The only solution is to restart the PC.

I noticed this a few months back, and it's getting pretty annoying.

Any suggestions?

Hi, 

We do a weekly company webinar on Zoom and noticed that when the participants join the meeting using their Zoom software, the quality is great --- however, if they join through their browser (MS Edge) the quality is poor. 

NOTES

Note1: all the employees use company laptops and desktops loaded with Windows 10 and MS Edge, so other browsers are not an option.

Note2: It's safe to assume the majority of participants are not tech savvy, so the goal here is to get them to join a high-quality Zoom meeting, with the least number of additional steps.

Note3: Many of the employees have a fully licensed copy of Zoom on their laptops, but some don't yet. 

QUESTIONS

Question 1: Is there a way, on the host side, to ensure that when a participant joins a meeting via browser, they will always get the same high-quality audio and HD video as if they were using the software?

Question 2: Is there a way, on the participant side, to ensure that when they join a meeting via browser, they will always get the same high-quality audio and HD video as if they were using the software?

Question 3: With the Invitation link that's sent via email, is there a way to force it to only open their Zoom software without confusing them with an additional option to join the meeting via their browser?

Question 4: (Unrelated - curiosity Questions) - MS Teams claims to have comparable HD quality to Zoom, but never once have I ever experienced a Teams meeting to ever even come close to the quality of Zoom (Software Version), with either Audio or Video. Curious if anyone knows the specific reason as to how Zoom always manages to have better quality audio and Video... Is the audio less compressed, is it sampled at a higher bitrate, is a better encoder etc? My tech team is a big fan of Zoom, but we always have to justify this every quarter, because our parent company has a big account with Microsoft. So would be nice to know the comparison of the tech specs that account for the differences. 

Thank you to all who reply to this. I appreciate you taking the time. Any insight is greatly appreciated. 

I've been using ZOOM in my classes for the past 3 years or more and I had never had any situation like the one I've been facing. Every time I start my classes I have to UNMUTE my microphone and it had never been like that before. I don't want to start the meetings muted. I want my microphone to be ON every time. Does anybody know where or how I can fix this? I've already spent hours changing settings here and there but nothings seems to work.

It appears that there aren't as many audio setting options on Zoom version on the Apple Ipad as there are on the Zoom on my Apple computer. I am teaching piano online on the computer - the best zoom setting for my student to hear me play the piano is Original Sound for Musicians. My student is using an Ipad and doesn't seem to have this sound setting available and when he plays the sound of his playing is broken up.. Can you advise the best sound setting on the Zoom version on Ipad to hear piano playing clearly.. Thanks

Hi everyone,

Hoping someone can help me - I do not have a green screen, and it seems my system requirements are not allowing for a virtual background. Here are the specs:

Device name DESKTOP-J82P7NH
Processor AMD Ryzen 3 3200G with Radeon Vega Graphics 3.60 GHz
Installed RAM 16.0 GB (13.9 GB usable)
Device ID 057135AD-8372-474A-A844-9CE95135BE5D
Product ID 00330-80000-00000-AA857
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Is there anything I do can? Thanks!

Dear readers

What are the best settings if I want to create recurring zoom meetings / links for the following:

1. a recurring zoom link that I can add to my calendar online where people book me for a 1-1

2. a recurring zoom link for my webinars. Always the same link for all my free webinars

So for 95% of my meetings I will only have to use 2 links: 1 for my 1-1 meetings and 1 for my free webinars

I have mixed oround with the setting, but now I have unintendedly a DAILY webinar via zoom starting. I don't want to have a daily zoom meeting. I just want to have a recurring link at hand. Tech is obviously not my upside...

Any advise?

Thank you!

Maurice
