pRICE cUBE,
The [www.kinoni.com] driver is part of what I meant. Our iPhones have such good cameras, why not use them instead of the dinky little things squeezed into the screen? Or some Logitech piece of plastic?
I don't know anyone who is using the kinoni driver and do not want to install some possible junk code. I am running Catalina on my MacBook and her iMac is in Mojave - she gets mad at every system upgrade. So I test everything thoroughly before changing anything.
My wife and I teach Zoom classes together a lot, and the video is then put on class sites so students can watch over and over. Even though I set everything up, and am her tech support, she gets mad if I propose any changes.
When I am teaching by myself, what I have been doing part of the time is to log into Zoom twice, with my iPhone and with the MacBook. I put the iPhone on a stand in some convenient position and have it be the main camera, and I use the bigger screen of the MacBook, which actually has 2 27" Apple monitors attached to it.
Sometimes I put the iPhone stand right in front of the monitor, so that when I am talking to someone, it is more like I am looking them in the eye.
Before the Pandemic, we were traveling half the year, all over the US, Canada, Australia, Bali, to teach workshops - we train teachers of meditation.
Zoom is working well but I have a LOT to learn about all the details of lighting and sound.
