On my old 27" iMac I could share screen and livestream on YoutTube and the Zoom controls were not visible/neither were apps as I scrolled through to another application. Now, when I do the same on the M1 Mac Mini I get black blobs where the Zoom controller is and also shows App icons. Is this an issue with Big Sur, Zoom or the M1 Mac Mini. Screengrabs attached to show the issue.
Thanks in advance for any fix.
woolardhome69,
Thank you for these additional details. We'd like to see if there are other steps that we can perform to isolate the issue.
Are there any other apps in which the controls are not displaying correctly?
Have you had the chance to try a different known-good network when performing the task? We ask because you are performing tasks that both require a strong and stable internet connection.
Please keep us posted.
Take care!

woolardhome69,
We appreciate you keeping us posted. Since the issue is isolated to Zoom, we recommend that you reach out to Zoom's developer for assistance.
If the app is acquired through the App Store, the article below may help.

Unfortunately I'm unable to test another user account as using a work-owned Mac where the user account settings are locked down. All I know is that in Mojave (on an 8 year old iMac), streaming a Zoom meeting on YouTube worked fine but in Big Sur on new M1 Mac Mini it doesn't unfortunately.
Currently not experiencing any other issues. Only the Zoom issue where blocks show (as in screen grab, that is basically a Zoom window to the right and the Zoom controls above) and when scrolling through Apps, neither of which were present using iMac and Mojave.
I use a wired ethernet connection with a 150mbps download and 30mbps upload when using Zoom as I previously did.
Thanks
