Zoom [Meeting SDK](https://developers.zoom.us/docs/meeting-sdk) for Android, integration by custom Native module running with React Native.  
(zoom-sdk-android-6.3.6.27190 and React Native 0.74.5)

We used MobileRTCVideoView to render Zoom View on React Native side.

**Description**  
Currently, we want to show the active screen share view when there is a user share their screen in a meeting. We used addShareVideoUnit method from MobileRTCVideoViewManager to render the active share (the ID is from inMeetingService.activeShareUserID()).

However, the screen share is blank (transparent). We consider this as artifact error due to it’s render the previous screen instead of the current active share view.

Actually the SDK integration in our way works OK when we use addActiveVideoUnit in the middle (in the image):

The only draw back us from bringing value to our user is the issue related to screen share above.

Dear HM Admin,

Are you using the screen share to also display the active video from the other user? If so, before you call `addShareVideoUnit` on that view, please call `removeActiveVideoUnit` to stop streaming the user’s active video, and _then_ please try calling `addShareVideoUnit`.

Furthermore, can you please share a code snippet of your workaround? What did you mean by adding `addActiveVideoUnit` in the middle?

Thank you for your patience,  
Richard
