Virtual background is still loading

I have been using virtual backgrounds without issue since March 2020, but in recent weeks I have sporadic issues with Zoom failing to work with any virtual backgrounds. When I turn on the camera, the feed stays black until a pop-up comes up saying that the virtual background is still loading and asking me to start video anyway or stop. I can not ever get the background to work.  Unplugging and reconnecting the webcam, changing ports on the dock, restarting Zoom don't work. Using the mic on the webcam never suffers any issues and works even when the feed is black while Zoom is apparently attempting to load the virtual background.  Once I click on "Use video" button and ignore the virtual background, the camera works without issue though obviously without the virtual background.

 

Setup is USB Logitech webcam attached via VAVA USB-C dock on 2019 Macbook Pro running macOS Big Sur 11.4. Zoom version is 5.7.6. 

 

Has anyone else encountered this or have ideas for fixes or workarounds?

Zoom Video Too Large - Can I change size after recording?

I created a 26-minute training video where I share my screen.   The file size is too large for where I need to store the video.  Is there a way to make the file size smaller after I have recorded it?

Registration page showing the event as IN LONDON

The registration page shows the event as IN LONDON - where the time of the event is listed it states "11am in London" which causes confusion for some registrants. Is there a way to change this so it reads "11am GMT"?

I am looking to use zoom to have students register for a webinar. I will implement a registration button on my site which when the student clicks it will take them to the Zoom registration page. However, once the student registers, I don't want them to get an email sent out with the meeting invite. I want to suppress that.

 

I will be implement a "join meeting" button in my platform for the webinar. When the webinar goes live, the students can then click on the join meeting button to join the webinar. How can I do that?

I need my admin assistant to be able to have access to my account to schedule meetings for me. I DO NOT want to pay for her to have a pro account since she is simply supporting me; I have a pro account and she has a basic account. We do pay for a phone for her. How can she access my account besides just giving her my password? She will not be hosting her own meetings. Just setting them for me.  Is my only option to have a pro account for her?  We are a small nonprofit and want to keep costs low.

Good afternoon!

 

I have been researching online about if people are able to use the automated zoom caption feature to display captions onto a separate monitor and have not had any luck. When the automated captions are enabled, you can move the caption window around your screen with your mouse, but Zoom will not let you move the caption window onto another extended display even if you have "dual monitors" enabled. I am thinking dual monitors is only helpful for maybe like a speaker view on one monitor and content or gallery on the other. The internet tells me one could use OBS, so I was curious if anyone has downloaded OBS software and tried this out, or if there is another easier way to display automated captions. The specific use case for this is that we would like to project automated captions to a 65" monitor in our theater to an audience without the zoom speaker/gallery view behind it.

 

Thanks very much in advance, I appreciate it!

Resolved! Can I use a meeting ID and Password several times?

I have scheduled a zoom meeting for several days from now and have already sent the log-in information to about 20 people.  Several of the people are not familiar with Zoom, and I would like to do several practice sessions with each of  them before the real meeting.  Can I use the same log-in information (Meeting ID and Password) for the practice meetings that will be used for the scheduled meeting?  In other words, if I initiate a practice meeting using the same login, will that  count as the scheduled meeting, "erase" the login information,  and make it necessary to schedule another meeting with a different  log-in and  then notify all 20 people of this change?  Thanks for your advice?
