**Description**  
Canceling the spotlight video with `MeetingVideo\_SpotlightVideo({bSpotlight: false}); does not work in Electron.

**Which version?**  
Current master, which is [https://github.com/zoom/zoom-sdk-electron/commit/11e721e1cebcdb4c40b7d895e31b32a533edd883](https://github.com/zoom/zoom-sdk-electron/commit/11e721e1cebcdb4c40b7d895e31b32a533edd883)

**To Reproduce(If applicable)**  
Steps to reproduce the behavior:  
Call `MeetingVideo_SpotlightVideo({bSpotlight: false});`

Should I use something else?

Thanks,  
Sam

Hi Sam,

The interface MeetingVideo\_SpotlightVideo is expecting 2 parameters: spotlight and userid.

![0E66D5BE-9C3D-41D6-A5A4-F4D27FBEF39C](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex016/uploads/zoomdeveloper/original/2X/e/e3052d3346b3b0d2a71c4c90a9d8392402ac66ef.jpeg)

It will not work if any of the parameters are missing. Please have a try.

Thanks!

Thanks. It does indeed work on the C# library with 2 parameters. I was pretty sure I also tried it with 2 parameters on Electron for MacOS, will try it again…

Hi [sam.decrock](https://devforum.zoom.us/u/sam.decrock),

Thanks for the reply. We have tried this interface on our end and have not encountered any issues. Please have a try and let me know if it is still not working.

Thanks!
