This last week, I was delighted to find that background blur started working in Zoom on ubuntu 20.04 without a green screen. No joke: I was waiting over two years for this feature to make it from Windows. I was happily able to host a couple of meetings using it. Unfortunately, after a reboot, I am getting the same bug as a few others have found: having background blur enabled either gives a black screen when you start a meeting, or will freeze your camera image if you enable it after entering a meeting.
Hello, I have just switched from windows to linux and I work remotely so I need Zoom, and here I found how badly it has been managed as compared to windows, and this virtual background option is necessary for people like me who works remotely.
It is surprising that this feature is STILL NOT AVAILABLE at the end of 2024. I can see an option for Virtual Background in the settings, but it doesn’t work without a greenscreen. And there is no option to blur the background. Please fix this asap.
