" 1. Drop the frame rate / resolution of the frame rate of the Zoom call down to the lowest rate"
How does one do that? I do not see any controls when I launch Zoom. -- Hmm, it seems I made an incorrect assumption on what I thought would be a standard feature. It seems you only have to video resolution choices: HD and non-HD. I did find an article that gives camera recommendations for HD video - "a camera with 720p (1280×720) resolution will suffice. To avoid choppy video, get one that can deliver at least 20 frames per second under this resolution. If you’re willing to spend the money, get one that shoots up to 30 frames per second." https://blog.zoom.us/wordpress/2013/08/29/how-to-get-the-most-out-of-your-zoom-experience/ On Sat, Apr 11, 2020 at 11:43 AM Denis Heidtmann <denis.heidtm...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Sat, Apr 11, 2020 at 9:34 AM Mike C. <mconno...@gmail.com> wrote: > > " 1.
