I am shopping for a new Mac computer.

 

I record 8-hour Zoom sessions every day and I want to publish them to Youtube as fast as possible. So I want the new computer to transcode the Zoom recordings as fast as possible.

 

At the same time I do not want to needlessly pay for the expensive hardware that Zoom will not take advantage of.

 

So what affects the encoding time of Zoom recordings the most? I am using "Optimize for 3rd party video editor" setting to further process the recordings with Timebolt, if that affects anything.

 

Is it the CPU core count?

Is it the GPU core count?

Is it the amount of Unified Memory (RAM)?

Is it the speed of Unified Memory (200 vs 400 GB/s)?

Is it the presence of media encoder in M1 Pro/Max/M2?

 

What would be the recommended Macbook specs for maximizing Zoom transcoding times while keeping the cost of the computer under control?

Hello, i have zoom pro. i have a camera logitech brio, 4k. Window 10 on a pc. When i use the camera, the quality of the image is very clear. When i start zoom with the camera, i loose that clarity of image. Light is good however i dont have the quality of image as if i am only with the camera. I tested the image quality using recordings on cloud. i used 720 or 1080, on small group meeting without seeing a difference between the quality. I do zoom with recording. Why is the image not so good when using zoom? is this normal that i loose so much image quality?  I set the video setting to HD and the others options offered to improve the image already. i used background and it show well.  In recording, the image is stable, right, except the clarity of my face, compared to the clarity i get just using the camera. 

 I just find out that to host meetings in 720p i  need to request that in Zoom support.  But it will need to be approved.  I will wait to test my camera after i got the approval to have it in 720.  Should i assume that my image quality will be better?

Hello,

 

I am wondering if anyone could tell me more about how virtual backgrounds work? Are there any risk that people get "erased" when using virtual backgrounds? And most importantly are specific backgrounds more difficult to used (for example backgrounds with lots of dark colours are harder to be used)? And similarly with people with different skin tones, are people of colour more likely to be erased by the virtual background?

 

Thank you very much,

piR.

I have two USB mics to add to my PC laptop mic.
Some articles say to just add them.

Other articles refer to iPad settings.

But my Zoom interface only allows for one at a time.

I'm just using the simple Zoom login.

Do I need to use a different Zoom program.

Are Zoom Rooms different from a simple Zoom program?
