Since the Zoom Meeting SDK combined with the Web client code ( Version 3 onwards ) in the previous release, the camera seems to turn on automatically now when we join the meeting. Is there any configuration to prevent the camera from turning on automatically? I cannot find anything relevant in the SDK Reference.
