Hello Zoom Community,

I am building a C++ application that:

1. Automatically joins scheduled Zoom meetings (using the Zoom C++ SDK).

2. Acts as an in-meeting speech translator, capturing audio, translating in real time, and playing back the translated speech.

🛠 What I’m Trying to Do

• Programmatically join a meeting with a pre-defined display name (e.g. “MyBotTranslator”).

• Once joined, immediately start the translation workflow without any manual intervention.

🚨 The Problem

• Although I pass the correct display name to the SDK’s joinMeetingWithParams call, Zoom still pops up the “Enter your name” dialog instead of using my name.

• Because the name-entry window can’t be controlled by code, the join process never proceeds automatically.

🔍 What I’ve Tried

• Verified the name parameter is correctly set when calling the SDK.

• Tested both JWT and OAuth authentication flows.

• Compared against Zoom’s C++ sample apps (which only work when you manually type a name).

• Searched the SDK docs for flags or config options to suppress the name prompt.

🤔 Expected vs. Actual

• Expected: Bot joins instantly with the given display name, then begins translating.

• Actual: Zoom stops and waits for manual name entry in the UI dialog.

Hello,

I saw that Zoom changed its name from "Zoom Video Communications, Inc." to "Zoom Communications, Inc." around November ( https://www.zoom.com/en/blog/introducing-zoom-communications-inc/ ). 

On Windows, when downloading the Zoom installer (as well as checking the files from an already installed/updated Zoom workspace program), the digital signature currently says "Zoom Video Communications, Inc.", even when downloading the latest "ZoomInstallerFull.exe" (64-bit) from the Zoom download center. Will that remain the name on the signature, or will it change to "Zoom Communications, Inc."? This can have an impact on things that check the signature, such as Windows Applocker/WDAC policies.

On my windows laptop with the latest version of zoom, I get notifications when someone is in the waitroom so I can do other things while I wait. On my macbook(also with the latest version of zoom), I don't get those same notifications. Can someone please tell me why?

A while ago I posted here about what seems to be a dependency of Zoom install (Windows) on MS Edge.

A few users assured me that there is no such dependency. The exchange has mysteriously disappeared,

Then I found the following record in the app that controls MS Firewall:

C:\users\name\appdata\local\zoom\plugin\webview2_x64\133.0.3065.82\msedgewebview2.exe

OTOH, it appears that the MS firewall disallowed the connection.

OTO there seems to be a call to msedgewebview2.exe in  a PLUGIN folder which is empty.

I run an older version of Win10 that I intentionally keep away from MS updates and I do not have and do not want MS Edge.

Zoom should not call an Edge plugin, but the plugin for the default browser.

Can anybody clarify what is going on here?

We are very regular users of Language interpretation on Zoom. 

In a meeting today, on one interpretation channel (out of 4) we were systematically getting the original audio and the interpreter's voice mixed at about 50% volume each - which is clearly unusable. 

Selecting  "mute original audio". on that channel did not change anything. 

The situation was the same with all interpreters using that channel. When they switched to another channel, the problem went away - and we confirmed hearing their voice only on that other channel after selecting "mute original audio". 

It sounded like a regular audio mix and was not due to sound leakage from the interpreters' system - we checked. If sound leakage had been the root cause we should have heard it on both channels. 

All interpreters were using the last Zoom client update on Win or MacOs. 

We could not stop interpretation and restart. We tried logging out one interpreter and signing her back in, then reassigning her to her channels - and that made no difference at all. 

Has anyone had that before? Any idea as to what could have happened? 

Hi, 

If there is a yellow border around a speaker, say you have joined late (unmuted) to the meeting and they are already speaking, would they be able to hear you? Or does it cancel out your voice?

Can more than one person have this active speaker (yellow border) at one time? - So allow for multiple people to be speaking at once? 

Thanks, 

Kim
