Feature Request - View that displays participants along the bottom of screen

Many users like us have conference room set ups with the camera located below TV.  During a presentation when the screen or slides are being shared, everyone is now looking up to the top of the screen, the farthest possible from the camera, to see and converse with other meeting participants.  

 

Please add a View Option that locates participants to bottom of the ZOOM presentation.  This seems very simple to implement and add to other View options menu that exists today.

 

Side note--I realize you can drag and drop the window with participant camera view to wherever needed, including bottom of the screen.  But this method overlays the participants on top of the presentation being shared and causes other issues.  A simple View option as described above is much cleaner.

"Extra" meetings showing up in Meetings tab

I have noticed recently that some of the meetings I have scheduled are now appearing twice (in one case three times).  The 'extra' meetings have a different meeting ID/Zoom link than the original meeting, and individual users have been invited to these 'extra' meetings (I don't ever invite people to a meeting via the Zoom app).

I also recently added a 'Save the Date' for an in-person conference to my calendar, and that, too, is now showing up in my Zoom meetings (even though it is not a Zoom meeting). Once again, individual users are showing up in this meeting in Zoom (it looks like the same people who accepted the calendar invite I sent via Outlook).

Any idea what might be going on? I can't seem to find an answer. I didn't do anything to update/change settings between my Outlook calendar and my Zoom account and now I have all these extra meetings showing up...

Breakout rooms

I have the Workplace Pro Plan. Does this plan give me access to the breakout rooms?  I have a meeting scheduled for tonight and need to have 2 breakout rooms.  Is this possible with my current plan?

I was on a Zoom meeting earlier today which appeared to be hacked.

 

This did not appear to simply be a troll or other bad actor in the room. The video for multiple attendees changed to unwanted images and everyone's audio was overridden whether they were muted or not.

Is there a way to translate a Zoom meeting, or webinar, without Host intervention?

So my Japanese is not fluent, but I have many different Zoom meeting in Japanese every day. I would like to be able to have the live Captions translated into English, or using AI to translate voice. Is anyone here aware of any solutions to this? The Zoom translated captions require the Host to enable them, so that is out - I can not convince a 100 managers to enable it. It should be something I do as a client, even if I have to pay.

 

Obviously I can use my phone, "Microsoft Translator" and have it translate live, but that isn't great in a headphone only situation. I can probably cook something up with a pseudo audio device and pipe into other software...

 

But it seems this would be one of the first things you would want with Zoom?

Hello, we work in Turkey and most of our meeting are in Turkish. We have new foreigner colleague. He needs to simultaneous translation of the meetings. When he manually opens translation to English, it really does not work. Subtitle of the Turkish version works well but it does not translate into English good. How can we solve this problem? Do we need to do something else or do you have any other suggestions to make him understand simultaneously?

On this page https://zoom.us/user/meeting/transcript#/transcripts

 

there's only the information:

 

No transcripts
You are not allowing meeting hosts to retain and access meeting transcripts.
 
Where do I allow the host to retain and access transcripts?

Using the Outlook connector to schedule zoom meetings. When scheduling a meeting it keeps defaulting to Personal Meeting ID and I have to change it to Generate Automatically and if I forget it sends out my personal meeting id which I do not want to do. Is there a setting somewhere that will force new meetings to use the "Generate Automatically" option?
