Is there a way to automatically  hide video panel when sharing screen, other than having to do it manually. I have setting to gallery view for participants, when I share screen I don't want the panel showing I have to go and click on More than Hide Video Panel, which is distracting when you are teaching or minimise the panel. Any suggestions? 

I have been using zoom for guitar classes for 3 years. I had the guitar and microphone plugged into an guitar processor which also acts as an audio interface. This was connected to my mac book pro M1 via USB. In zoom the audio interface was selected as mic and speaker. This worked flawlessly for those 3 years. Last week when the classes returned after the summer break i plugged in as usual and zoom is now suppressing the sound of the guitar and voice. Even when i just use the mac microphone and speaker when i test mic i can hear my voice but play the guitar and i will be able to hear the first couple of notes and then its suppressed. The people on the on other end of the line said they couldnt make out what i was saying and the guitar sounded weird. I am fully updated on Mac OS and the zoom app. Nothing has changed. I tried another audio interface and got the same problem. The mac and audio interface work flawlessly in other music apps. Im pulling my hair out at this stage.

Zoom 5.11.10 and 5.11.9. In a meeting using KDE on Wayland right click menus appear at random places on the screen and clicking outside the menu does not cause it to close, though using the Esc key does. Also clicking on the shield icon at the top left of the meeting only produces the dialogue for a brief flash and it then disappears.

It all works correctly  though if I run Zoom with XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP set to GNOME.

I have seen threads about this, but I have seen no response that makes sense. It looks like the company is ignoring or avoiding the subject.

Is there any valid reason that Zoom must install on C: and the users are not allowed to customize the install folder (Windows 10)?

If not, why does Zoom not allow it -- does it have any intention to do it, and if not, why not?

Seems like a simple

There are at least two issues when annotating a window screen-shared by a Wayland (Linux) user.

Steps to reproduce the issues:

1. A Linux user shares a window (NOT the full screen) on Wayland.
2. Another user annotates on the shared window.

Issues:

1. The annotation is not aligned with the shared window, but is wrongly aligned to the entire screen for the Linux user.
2. The annotation disappears after a few seconds on the annotator's screen, but remains on the Linux user's screen

Expected behaviour:

1. The annotation is aligned on all users' screens.
2. The annotation remains on all users' screens until cleared.

Hi all,

I use basic, free Zoom and lately have been experiencing frequent Unstable Internet messages.  I've read lots of articles about this on the internet and am still baffled so any direction on solving this would be appreciated.  Here is what I'm using and what I've done so far.

1. I typically sign into Zoom right from Google chrome by going to zoom.com.  Should I be using the installed program?  Does it matter?

2. I'm on a pc, W10, newish laptop, Google Chrome.  Windows and all drivers fully up to date.

3. Network troubleshooter shows no problems.

4. Wifi speed 2.4G about 75 download/13 upload and with 5G about 84/13.  However, I noted 5G has about one bar less on strength than 2.4G.  Which is more important - signal strength or speed?

5. Not using HD camera.  No other streaming occurring in house

6. Not sharing videos etc. during call that would bog things down.  Just a shared whiteboard.

7. No unnecessary tabs open on pc during call.

8. No background apps running on pc that I think would bog things down.

TIA for any direction on solving this  annoying problem.
