• Zoom 5.17.1.1840

    I have been having trouble with the latest zoom zoom_x86_64-5.17.1.1840.rpm
    I am using it on Mageia 8 latest update, on an Asus motherboard with
    VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation CoffeeLake-S GT2 [UHD Graphics 630]

    If I open up the chat , suddenly the behaviour of the graphics becomes horrible. It grabs about 1/5 of a second worth of display, and just
    keeps repeating it on the zoom display. So everyone's images look like
    they have just suffered a grand mal seizure, Lips open and shut rapidly,
    hands wave back and forth and the image never changes from that, unless
    I move the whole screen image of the zoom, at whichpoint it refreshes to
    the present. But when I stop moving the zoom screen image, it goes back
    into that loop with the newest image present when I stopped moving the
    screen. It is supremely annoying. The sound is fine. The buttons on the
    zoom screen initiate the actions they are supposed to do even though
    nothing changes on the visual display of the button.

    Has anyone else seen something like this? Ie, it seems as though the
    display hardware or software has gone nuts. Unfortunately I do not zoom
    that often so this is hard to test out. I have now downgraded zoom
    (really hard to do since the company only has the latest version
    available, as if bugs are non-existant and noone ever has to go back to
    an older version ) and I will see if that works.

    Anyway. any clues as to what could be happening? And how to fix?
