**Meeting SDK Type and Version**  
zoom-meeting-sdk-linux\_x86\_64-5.17.11.3885

**Description**  
Now that I am recording raw data from a meeting with single user (myself) and the “bot/sdk” app no matter what I set I always end up with 360p raw data frames:  
frame-\>width = data-\>GetStreamWidth();  
frame-\>height = data-\>GetStreamHeight();  
Log::info("w: " + to\_string(frame-\>width) + " h: " + to\_string(frame-\>height));  
⏳ w: 640 h: 360  
I’ve tried both:  
err = m\_videoHelper-\>setRawDataResolution(ZoomSDKResolution\_720P);  
err = m\_videoHelper-\>setRawDataResolution(ZoomSDKResolution\_1080P);  
I am on Mac M2, FaceTime HD, HD enabled;  
bot is on AMD Ryzen 9 7950X 16-Core Processor with 96GB ram;  
both share 1gbps fiber …

**Error?**  
no errors

**How To Reproduce**  
_Steps to reproduce the behavior including:_  
\*1. Use the sample app  
\*2. Connect to meeting with single user  
_3. Browser/client type and version_

@ivan6 ,

This sounds familiar, could you try with 3 users (including the bot?)

Hey @ivan6 ,

We build meeting bots at scale and have run into similar issues in the past - happy to chime in here!

Are you by chance on a free Zoom account? HD video is only available on Pro, Business, Education, or Enterprise accounts.

There are some other [prerequisites](https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0066166#:~:text=Prerequisites%20for%20HD%20video%20for%20meetings) in order to use HD video that might be causing issues here:

- Pro, Business, Education, or Enterprise account
- Full-screen meeting window on Zoom desktop client
- Zoom desktop client for Windows, macOS, or Linux: [Global minimum version](https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0061130) or higher
- Zoom mobile app for Android or iOS: [Global minimum version](https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0061130) or higher

If you’ve confirmed all of the prerequisites, the other thing to check here is that HD video is actually enabled. Quoting [these docs](https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0066166#:~:text=Prerequisites%20for%20HD%20video%20for%20meetings):

> To enable or disable HD video for meetings for your own use:
> 
> 1. Sign in to the Zoom web portal.
> 2. In the navigation menu, click **Settings**.
> 3. Click the **Meeting** tab.
> 4. Under **In Meeting (Advanced)**, click the **Meeting-HD Video Quality** toggle to enable or disable it.
> 5. If a verification dialog appears, click **Enable** or **Disable** to verify the change.  
> 6._Note_\*: If the option is grayed out, it has been locked at either the group or account level. You need to contact your Zoom admin.
> 6. If applicable for your account, select **Standard HD (720p)** or **Full HD (1080p)**, then click **Save**.
> 
> Once enabled in the Zoom web portal, users must [enable **HD** from their **Video** settings in the Zoom desktop client or mobile app](https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0060612) to apply it during a meeting.

There are also some caveats/known scenarios to be aware of around HD video, and these are outlined here: [Resolution of recorded video](https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0066421)

## Another Option

Another alternative is to use [Recall.ai](https://www.recall.ai/)for your meeting bots instead. It’s a simple 3rd party API that lets you use meeting bots to get raw audio/video from meetings without you needing to spend months to build, scale and maintain these bots.

Let me know if you have any questions!
