Gallery View doesn't support fallback frames (participant names on black screen) for participants who's cameras are off. To get the fallback frames, use Gallery View V2 instead

Gallery View V2

FAQ

Is there a maximum number of participants displayed in the recording when using gallery view?

Yes. When using both gallery_view or gallery_view_v2, the maximum number of participants shown in the final mp4 (or real-time video stream) is capped depending on the meeting platform:

Zoom: 16 participants
Google Meet: 16 participants
Microsoft Teams: 9 participants

This is dictated by meeting platform limitations, and thus cannot be overridden.
