I was concerned that I would have to find another way to give singing lessons to my student who is 9 hours away because she was not able to hear the higher notes on the piano when doing vocal warmups with me and I couldn't hear her sing the high notes or most notes very well even after she purchased a microphone. And at one point there was an echo.  I am happy to say issues were solved quite quickly when I changed my audio settings and had her do the same.  Here's what worked perfectly for us:

Zoom background noise removal is on

Background noise suppression is low

Advanced Echo cancellation is aggressive

May this be helpful to others who have endured the same issues 🙂

We have a PC running Zoom client (5.14.11, which is another discussion since I do not see this version or the newest version 5.15.5 on Zooms road map list for 2023), a Magewell USB Capture HDMI 4K Plus which shows as a supported device and another laptop connected over HDMI to the Magewell. The Magewell shows up as a second camera feed even though it is supported as a content share device. Magewell is on current firmware.

Are we missing something? A setting or piece of hardware? We have tried this with multiple PCs/laptops with all resulting in the same issue. Any help is appreciated.

RME UFX III causes Zoom to Hang in Audio Settings.

Greetings, when I launch Zoom and open Settings/Audio, I get the spinning beachball and must force-quit the Zoom app. This is due to Zoom not being able to address all 188 channels that the UFX III presents by default. My workaround currently is to run the interface with a USB 2.0 cable that reduces the channels to 60, which creates issues with my other audio apps. Is Zoom aware of this and working on a fix? Thank you.

Recently the city I live in had a City Council meeting that was a hybrid of in-person commenters and people using Zoom. Several commenters appeared on Zoom and used hate speech. The city council did not feel that they could stop this and did not wish to stop the meeting. Can I, a member ofthe public, compalin to Zoom and get the hate speakers banned?

Hello!

For my job, I use zoom very often and feel pretty confident in trouble shooting. This morning, however, I encountered a new situation that I can't find any information on or how to fix. While the host is screen sharing, little gray boxes are showing on their screen.. I am familiar with if they have the toolbar or participant list up, there is a large gray box. The host still has nothing on their screen, yet these little gray boxes remain. It shows on each slide in the same place too. 

Has anyone else encountered this? 

Is there a way to cap the number of participants auto-assigned to Breakout Rooms?

Specifically, I have an upcoming meeting where the specific quantity of attendees is unknown. During the meeting, participants will be small-batched to Breakout Rooms. I'd like to create many rooms and have Zoom auto-assign them to a max per room, regardless of the number of participants.

For instance, say I want four per room. I'd like to create 50 rooms, set a room limit to four, and have Zoom auto-fill each room instead of dividing all partipcants equally across all rooms. 119 attendees fill 29 rooms with four, one room with three, and 20 rooms remain empty.

Yes, I can manually assign (or have a co-host do it), but it'd be so much easier to auto-fill.

When scheduling a Zoom meeting on my Mac, Zoom proposes to set the meeting into an Outlook agenda (which I do not use). This is new since I have my new Mac. On my old Mac, Zoom always proposed an iCal (Mac) format agenda. I suppose I need to set this somewhere but where ?
Can anybody help me ?

Cheers,

Guy
