**Description**  
The getValidRecivedShareSource inside CustomizedRecordingLayoutHelper returns a non-empty array after any user starts and stops sharing.

This is occurring inside the recording layout handler

- ( **void** )setRecordingLayoutForHelper:(CustomizedRecordingLayoutHelper \*)helper

**Which macOS Meeting SDK version?**  
5.9.6

**To Reproduce(If applicable)**  
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Launch a meeting as host with custom SDK application (user A)
2. Join the meeting with the Zoom client (user B)

(lldb) po [helper getValidRecivedShareSource]  
\<\_\_NSArrayM 0x600001b21d70\>(  
)

**NOTE: Empty array**

1. Allow user B to share screen
2. user B starts screen share

(lldb) po [helper getValidRecivedShareSource]  
\<\_\_NSArrayM 0x600001b21d70\>(  
0,  
16779264  
)

**NOTE: Contains userID of sharer + a zero entry for some reason**

1. User B stops screen share

(lldb) po [helper getValidRecivedShareSource]  
\<\_\_NSArrayM 0x600001b21d70\>(  
0  
)

**NOTE: Non-empty array.**

**Device (please complete the following information):**  
Apple MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1)  
12.2.1

**Additional context**

This causes an issue with the following code:

- ( **void** )setRecordingLayoutForHelper:(CustomizedRecordingLayoutHelper \*)helper

The workaround of course is to check for any zero entries. But I am not sure why there is a zero entry at all after the first share. This is inconsistent because it does not occur before the first occurrence of a share session.

Hi @KieranAC,

I was able to reproduce this behavior. We’ll need to investigate and will keep you updated as soon as we have any new information.

Hi @KieranAC,

As it turns out, we have already identified a fix for this issue which will be included in the next SDK release (v.5.10.0).

Thanks!
