Testing Your Video in Zoom

You can manually test your video camera with Zoom before joining a meeting—or during a meeting—to ensure that the camera is working properly. You can also start a test Zoom meeting.

Test your video before a meeting

1. Sign in to the Zoom Workplace desktop client.
2. Click your profile picture, then click Settings .
3. Click the Video tab .
   You will see a preview video from the camera that is currently selected; you can choose a different camera if another one is available.
   

Test your video while in a meeting

1. Start or join a meeting.
2. Next to Start Video/Stop Video on the meeting controls, click the up arrow .
3. Select Video Settings.
   Zoom will display your camera's video and settings.
4. If you don't see your camera's video, under Camera, click the dropdown menu and select another camera.
