Hey @lfrancia,

Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. This sounds similar to an issue we’re tracking. Please see the following topic and let me know if this covers the issue:

> [@Self video doesn't start/take minutes to appear, but participants able to view it immediately](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/urgent-self-video-doesnt-start-take-minutes-to-appear-but-participants-able-to-view-it-immediately/49962):

> Description I’ve used the websdk sample app for angular. Apart from the lag in video (audio is fine), there’s a major issue of self video not appearing. Here’s how you can reproduce: Start the call (1 host [0 participants] with audio enabled, video disabled) 1 participant joins in with audio enabled, video disabled Participant turns on her video, host is able to see and hear, but, participant can’t see her video (for a long time, or never) Participant switches tab to another website and come…

Thanks,  
Max
