Software-update: Zoom 5.17.0

Zoom logo (79 pix)Versie 5.17 van de videoconferencingsoftware Zoom is uitgekomen. Dit programma maakt het mogelijk om onder meer onlinevergaderingen, conferenties en colleges bij te wonen. Het is verkrijgbaar voor de gangbaarste besturingssystemen en is beschikbaar in een gratis en een betaalde uitvoering met meer mogelijkheden. Het programma is sinds kort ook in het Nederlands te gebruiken. In deze uitgave zijn de volgende veranderingen en verbeteringen aangebracht:

General features
  • Network Connectivity tool support for Zoom Mesh - Windows, macOS
    The Network Connectivity tool supports reporting Zoom Mesh connection details when the client is connected to a mesh network.
  • Improved visibility of feedback and help options
    The help menu, currently found in the desktop client profile menu, is more prominent and accessible on the desktop client. This menu can be found as an additional option on the top toolbar of the desktop client, regardless of which product tab you are currently on.
Meeting/webinar features
  • Prompt to change screen sharing full screen behavior
    If another participant begins sharing their screen and the user quickly exits fullscreen mode of the Zoom window, they will be prompted to change the default setting. Choosing Yes will change the Window size when screen sharing setting, found under the Share Screen section of the desktop client settings.
  • Pair and transfer Zoom Events session between personal device and Zoom Room
    Desktop users can pair with a local Zoom Room and transfer an active Zoom Events session in either direction, allowing users to easily transfer an Events meeting or webinar to suit their needs. Previously, only normal Zoom Meetings and Webinar support transferring to/from a Zoom Room.
Meeting features
  • Request host to start cloud recording
    Meeting participants can request the host begin a cloud recording of the current meeting. The meeting host will receive the request and be able to approve the request and begin the cloud recording, decline this request, or decline this and all future requests for this meeting. If unlocked by admins at the account or group level, the host can also decide to enable Smart Recording with AI Companion for the current meeting’s cloud recording, or for the current and all future meetings.
  • Improved controls for starting recordings with Zoom Revenue Accelerator
    The in-meeting controls for starting a cloud recording are updated to make a clearer distinction between starting a normal cloud recording and starting a cloud recording with Zoom Revenue Accelerator analytics. This requires the user have a Zoom Revenue Accelerator license.
  • Support for guest participants in on-prem meetings
    Customers with specific regulatory and security needs utilizing Zoom Node and Meetings Hybrid solution can allow external guest participants to join meetings held on premises directly through the host datacenter. This is available for accounts utilizing Zoom Meeting Hybrid with private meeting mode and must be enabled by account admins before users can invite external guests.
Team Chat features
  • Keep formatting when copying and pasting text in Team Chat
    Users can copy text with formatting from external sources, such as documents or web pages, and paste it directly into the Zoom Team Chat while retaining the original formatting. Additionally, formatting will be preserved when copying and pasting text within Team Chat, enabling the text to appear as intended, whether it’s bold, italicized, in lists, or other formatting styles.
  • Group chat usability improvements
    When a user initiates a new chat, the system will automatically populate the most recent group chat with the same membership, effectively reducing redundancy. Users can continue to create a new group chat with the same membership if they would like. Additionally, the enhancement involves removing the current logic for adding a new member to a direct message between two users.
  • Enhancements to Team Chat Activity Center
    In addition to activity center notifications for 1:1 messages, mentions, reactions, and replies, users can receive notifications for permissions and chat/channel management.
  • Zoom App cards in Team Chat
    When a Zoom App Marketplace link is shared in Team Chat, including both meeting chat and continuous meeting chat, a visually appealing card will be displayed. This card will feature essential information about the app, such as the title, thumbnail, a brief description, and a call to action. This enhancement aims to simplify the app installation process and encourage user engagement by providing a clear interface for adding, opening, or requesting the app.
Mail and Calendar features
  • Zoom Mail and Calendar admin onboarding guide on the Zoom web portal
    Account owners and admins can use the step-by-step onboarding guide on the Zoom web portal for setting up Zoom Mail and Zoom Calendar.
  • Receive unsaved changes reminder
    When users make changes to an event and try to close the window without saving, a pop-up message will appear, asking if they want to discard unsaved changes.
  • Enhancements to the Find a Time feature
    When hosts use the Find a Time feature and click a time slot on the calendar, the event window will automatically move to the newly selected time slot. Previously, the host had to click and drag the event window to the new time slot.
Phone features
  • Private Call Park & Aim Call Park for Shared Line Group
    Administrators have the flexibility to create a user group with permissions for these activities and specify the location where calls should be picked up. Those not included in the designated group are unable to retrieve these calls. Aim Call Park allows a user to transfer a parked call to an available user-selected aim call park number. Admin can configure phones that support the directed call park Busy Lamp Field (BLF) to monitor the busy/idle status of specific directed call park numbers in the admin portal. Users can also use the BLF to speed dial an aim call park number. The feature can be enabled at the account and site levels. This feature must be enabled by Zoom.
Zoom Clips
  • Avatar support
    Users can generate a human avatar for utilization in their Zoom Clips, allowing them to personalize diverse aspects, including facial features and colors. This feature is available on Windows and macOS only at this time.
  • Share a portion of your screen
    Users can now share a portion of their screen in their clips allowing them to concentrate on particular aspects of their presentation.
  • Optimize for video clip
    Enabling the Optimize for video clip feature allows users to opt for a faster frame rate when recording their clips.
  • Stereo audio
    Users can now utilize the stereo audio sound to record their clips, enhancing the depth of the sound experience for a more immersive auditory effect.
Contact Center features
  • Enhancements to inbound notifications
    Agents can see the relevant context associated with the consumer in the inbound notification pop-up window so that agents can be more effective, efficient, and responsive in handling the consumer. Examples include: channel type, call type, consumer information and variables.
  • Enhancements to contacts search
    Significant enhancements are made to contact search experience when agents or supervisors make outbound engagements or transfer engagements. The enhanced contact search experience now supports searching by name, phone number or email address, improving the sorting order of search results and the display of keyword-matching results. This makes it easier to locate a target result. Furthermore, the contact search experience has been standardized across all channels for a cohesive experience.
  • AI Companion for Zoom Contact Center
    Zoom's AI Companion is being added to Zoom Contact Center, empowering agents to increase productivity. The features that are currently available include:
    • Engagement Preview/Summary: Agents see an auto-generated summary before they accept the engagement.
    • Talk Speed & Speech Length: Agents see real-time speech metrics to improve the agent/customer interaction.
    • Sentiment Analysis: Agents can view the current sentiment of the engagement to help them de-escalate the consumer.
    • Follow-Up Actions: Agents can generate a list of next steps / actions based on the context of the conversation with the customer.
  • AI Expert Assist
    Zoom Contact Center's AI Expert Assist (EA) empowers agents to efficiently address customer issues and minimize handle time. It provides real-time support, making it easy for agents to access all the necessary information in one place, ultimately improving customer issue resolution during the first interaction. Expert Assist requires the Elite package, or an add-on license on top of basic/essentials and premium. The core features that are currently available include:
    • Wrap-up Summary: Agents can auto-generate a concise and accurate summary of their interaction with the customer, eliminating the need to manually take notes.
    • Knowledge Base (KB) Retrieval: Evaluates the customer's intent and automatically shows the relevant knowledge base article to the agent while interacting with consumers.
    • Information Retrieval: Enables agents to pull information from 3rd party systems at the right time based on the intent of the customer.
  • Enhancement to waiting room drop-in
    When supervisors initiate a chat or video call with a consumer in a video waiting room, supervisors can transfer the consumer to a new queue, flow, or agent. This feature needs to be enabled by Zoom.

Wijzig sortering
Laatst eens Zoom uitgeprobeerd maar het is mij totaal onduidelijk hoeveel tijd je nu daadwerkelijk krijgt bij de vrije versie en dan bij 1 op 1. Voor wat ik ervan begrijp krijg je 40 minuten per sessie bij een vergadering met meerdere personen. Alleen is dus niet terug te vinden hoe het zit dan met een 1 op 1 sessie en dan gewoon prive gebruik.
voor 1 op 1 zijn tientallen andere gratis opties mogelijk toch. Zoom is echt gericht op professioneel gebruik.
Ja, zeker, ik ken ze allemaal maar Zoom is een van de enigsten die een aparte modus heeft voor muzikanten. Meeste anderen gebruiken filters voor de microfoon om achtergrond geluiden te filteren en dit niet ideaal is bij muziek maken.
Volgens deze pagina is het alleen beschikbaar in meetings ( "Live performance audio mode is only supported for Zoom Meetings." )

En dan heb je dus met een Basic / Free account maximaal 40 minuten.

is het alleen beschikbaar in meetings
Klopt, maar voor zover ik zien kon kan je het ook gewoon instellen bij een 1 op 1 videochat.
En dan heb je dus met een Basic / Free account maximaal 40 minuten.
Dat is mij dus nog steeds niet duidelijk of dit dan voor een meeting geld met meerderen maar of dat dan ook geld voor een 1 op 1 videochat.
Ik zie hier (https://support.zoom.com/...sysparm_article=KB0067967) dit staan:

Gratis licenties (Basis) voor betaalde accounts*
*Opmerking: Op 15 juli 2022 wijzigt Zoom de limiet voor de vergaderingsduur voor 1:1-vergaderingen die worden gehost door Basisgebruikers (gratis) op betaalde accounts naar 40 minuten


Lijkt erop dat ze dus een chat als een 1 op 1 meeting zien en dus ook beperken naar 40 minuten?

Dat blijf ik dus ook zo verwarrend vinden wat zij dan onder vergaderingen verstaan.

Maar als dit dus dan ook geld voor gewonne prive 1 op 1 videochats, tja, vind dan 40 minuten toch wel een behoorlijke beperking. En ja het gaat mij dan ook te ver om dan voor pak weg 1 of 2 keer in de maand een abonnement te nemen, toch weer 15 euro per maand of bijna 140 euro per jaar.
Ben wel benieuwd waar je dit voor gebruikt: live optredens waarbij het publiek via Zoom luistert?
Lijkt me dat je met samen musiceren op afstand teveel last hebt van vertraging om lekker te kunnen spelen?
Voor 1 op 1 heb je helemaal geen server nodig, en kun je gewoon af met WebRTC ingebouwd in je browser :). Scheelt ook latency en is lekker prive.

Kijk bv eens naar Jitsi, daar kun je ook audio filtering uitzetten en stereo aan. Chromium heeft de beste WebRTC implementatie (Safari de slechtste).

Dank je voor die tip en ik daar zeer zeker eens naar ga kijken.
