I have noticed that the quality of a recorded session is much worse than in the live session. I have sent the link to the recording several times now and I get a lot of feedback that the quality is not good. Is there any way to improve the quality, perhaps via an upgrade or something similar? I own Zoom Pro. Many thanks for your help

Hi All,

Kindly request your help on a matter. 
We had recently hosted a Zoom meeting which was scheduled for a duration of 1 hour.
- We had opened the meeting from the Host account.

- Few minutes into the meeting, we had transferred the host rights to a non-licensed user and the original host had left the meeting

 

Now as far as I've read about it, transferring the host of a meeting from a LICENSED user to a NON-LICENSED USER will not have any impact on the meeting as the original host is LICENSED and there is not 40 min max duration cap being imposed.

 

Now, after we transferred the host to the non-licensed user and left the meeting, at precisely the 1 hour mark the meeting got ended
Would anyone kindly let me know why the meeting got ended at the 1 hour mark with no manual intervention?
Ideally the meeting should have kept going till further action or is there a limitation that I'm not aware?

Please do help.

My 5 year old meeting now requires participants to be commercial users

I started using Zoom during the pandemic and have been running a weekly meeting, paying fees every year to continue this tradition and use the product. As of a week ago, (June 2, 2024) My longtime users, many of whom do not have any Zoom accounts, but participate from their homes because they cannot get out to join my meetings in person due to distance or ability, now are being given a confusing screen that they must be a commercial user to participate.

 

First of all, this makes no sense. It sounds like you are requesting users joining a meeting hosted by myself with a pro account, to create an account despite the fact that I specifically did not want to require that of my participants. Not everyone is onboard with signing up for unnecessary accounts.

 

Second, by requiring users who don't pay large amounts to change their meeting settings after such a long usage is going to lose you customers. 

 

Third, some smaller meetings don't require security features. As Zoom built its reputation when everyone was forced to be home during the pandemic, there are many users who just got used to using your product and happily did so. It seems Zoom has forgotten that its user base is made up of many smaller entities who rely on the product to continue business as usual. 

 

I hope Zoom will address these concerns.

 

For evidence of the way Zoom has enabled this new policy, see this knowledge base article

https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0059862

Look specifically at this section:

Prerequisites for enabling or disabling the requirement for all meetings be secured with one security option

  • Account owner or admin privileges
  • Enterprise, API, Business (with more than 100 licenses), or Education account

Note: The following account types cannot disable this setting, as it is automatically required: single Licensed user, Pro accounts with 2 or more licenses, any Free Trial accounts, and Business accounts with 10-100 licenses.
