recordings wont go to desktop, seems settings make it manditory for recording to the cloud?

I have waisted so much time trying to look at the settings, but something happened - an update to zoom and when I recorded a class, it would always record to my desktop to a zoom folder, and or I had the option. Now, there is no option, I have messed around with the settings and they seem to be set for download to desktop.  I also do not like the cloud recordings downloading because it saves 6 recording settings download and it taking too much time to download them all and open up to see which one I want.  I think the latest version has a bug.  Is anyone else experiencing this?

I am also experiencing when I share my screen it is working fine, but I lose my screen with everyones faces, it is almost like me wanting to split screens - the shared screen on a different screen, I miss the old way, and I can't turn my video off when I am recording something, so my face is in them all of the time now, and I don't want that.  Any help is appreciated.

I have just invested the $5 per month to my account to add translated captions functionality as I'm about to start working with a German client. however, on testing, the german translation is not working ... Japanese, Malaysian and Hebrew all are ok, but German just brings up english text, Is this a known issue?

Thanks for any help and advice on this!

Breakout Rooms Option Not Showing in Menu

I have a Pro Zoom Account. 

  • have a Meeting room in my account that anyone can join at any time, whether I am there or not. It's been up for almost 3 years. I almost never have tech issues - maybe twice in 3 years.

When I learned about the Breakout Rooms feature, I created breakout rooms for this Meeting which have been used for a couple of years.

  • The Breakout Room option is set up so anyone can open it (or a number of members of this group who have the host key can open them - I forget which.)

Today I came on the Zoom room and another member who can open the breakout rooms was already there tho not available to talk at that moment...

  • But the breakout rooms were not open and the option to open them did not show up in the menu.
  • This never happened before. 

I checked my account to make sure the option was still selected --  everything was fine.

  • I checked everything I could think of..

After spending 20 minutes searching and researching all this out:

  • I looked at my Zoom room options again and all of a sudden the Breakout Room option was there. 
  • The other member could now talk and said that the breakout room option had not been available
    • But she checked again while we were talking and now the option was there for her too.

I could now open the Breakout rooms.

Does anybody know what happened?

 

(Frankly, it was very annoying to learn that with Pro, I no longer have live phone support, no live chat support nor email support. Just these rooms. This was only the second time in 3 years I needed tech support. I usually can fix things myself.  Don't like that Zoom's downgraded the level of support. -- This Breakout room was urgent as the formal meeting was starting shortly.)

Zoom Reaction floaters going up the screen

Hello,

 

This morning my Zoom has reaction floaters going up from the bottom of the screen every time someone makes a reaction, Hearts, thumbs up etc. floating up the screen. How do I turn that off?

I keep receiving unsolicited Zoom meeting invitations from different Gmail addresses. Each time I block or unsubscribe, the senders simply use a new address and the invitations start again. Outlook then displays constant reminders, which is extremely disruptive.

 

Could you please advise how I can stop people from automatically adding me to Zoom meetings, or at least require my confirmation before an invitation is placed in my calendar?

Resolved! Does the host need to have the video active to get an HD recording on the cloud?

Hi, I've been getting a measly 640p video for each recording and I think I've tried everything this forum has to offer. And my recordings are still 640p. I'm the host and I record meetings/interviews, but I'm not part of the conversation itself. So, ... Show more

Hi, I've been getting a measly 640p video for each recording and I think I've tried everything this forum has to offer. And my recordings are still 640p. I'm the host and I record meetings/interviews, but I'm not part of the conversation itself. So, I log on, make sure it starts recording and turn off mic and video.

 

Is this the reason why I'm not getting recordings with a higher quality? This page says video should be on but does that mean for every participant or, more specifically, for the host?

Thanks for any help in advance.
