Live Custom Streaming Not Follow Host Screen Format

Meeting SDK Web
1

Hi. I believe when live custom streaming was integrated to the Meeting SDK Web that when a host changes the screen format say from speaker to gallery that the live custom stream follows (it works in the client). We recently moved from anglerjs to react 9 and are finding that component view (haven’t implemented or tested client view) it does not follow.

This forces us to manual each session move rights to the client software host to change view and then back to web user as host and it will follow for that session until ended.

Please advise if this is known and there is a coming fix. Our priority is for Reactjs component view.

It would also be helpful to know if it works in angler but not react or in client view but not component view. As you can imagine this limits adoption and use of Meeting websdk. Thanks.

Based on Zoom’s public docs, I’d treat this as an undocumented behavior gap rather than a confirmed React migration issue. Zoom supports custom livestreaming and the Meeting SDK Web has both Client View and Component View, but I don’t see a documented guarantee that the livestream compositor follows the host’s selected speaker or gallery layout from Component View.

For teams that need a more controlled meeting capture pipeline, Recall.ai’s Meeting Bot API can help avoid depending on Web SDK UI layout behavior.
