Version 3.3.20

What's new in this release?

  • Introduction of the VidyoRemote 3 for Android
  • The VidyoRemote 3 for Android application delivers pre-conference and in-conference control features for VidyoRoom and VidyoPanorama 600 systems. The VidyoRemote 3 app offers the usability benefits of a touch-screen control interface, with no need to purchase a dedicated controller. In addition, it provides users with an experience similar to the current VidyoRoom and VidyoPanorama 600 OnScreen UI. Here are some of the feature highlights:
  • Join and disconnect from conferences, and answer and reject incoming calls.
  • View the list of available local and remote content streams, and choose which one you want to display.
  • Select and configure which camera, microphone, speakers, and content capture device to use during your Vidyo calls. Pan, tilt, and zoom the camera, and adjust speaker and mic levels during calls.
  • View upcoming meetings and join those meetings with one-click (if calendar integration has been configured).
  • Use meeting control features, such as locking and unlocking the room, muting the audio and video, and disconnecting participants.
  • Record the conference.
  • Enable security features like setting an access codes and PIN-protecting a room.
  • Write protection mode enhancements
  • If you enable write protection mode and start the reboot process, you won’t be allowed to press the button again. This ensures that the reboot process fully and successfully completes.
  • When write protection mode is enabled, you cannot delete log files nor can you upload new image, installer, or certificate files.
  • If you attempt to download a new installer from the VidyoPortal but there is not enough room in the write cache, the VidyoRoom will not download the installer. Instead, it will continue to check the cache every three hours, and it will download the installer when there is enough room.
  • New Admin UI settings
  • The new Network Tools tab on the Admin UI provides you with easy access to the “ping” and “traceroute” commands. You simply enter the IP address or host name of the system that you want to ping or trace the path of, and the results appear on the page.
  • Concerned that displaying the VidyoPortal URL, user name, or password on the VidyoRoom OnScreen UI could be security risk? If so, we’ve added a setting to the Admin UI that prevents these from appearing on the OnScreen UI.
  • From one page on the Admin UI, you can now conveniently set the system time manually or you can automatically sync the time with an NTP server.
  • If you have a Sony camera and you have set up its presets, you can now indicate that you want the camera position to remain unchanged at the end of each call.
  • Remote control API updates
  • The new Request Join Extension API enables you to join scheduled rooms using the room extension. This API works with scheduled rooms only and not with personal or public rooms.
  • Remote Control API commands now work with rooms and usernames that have a period in the name as long as the parameter is within single quotes. For example, here’s how you can now query the lock status of a room called qa.test: request status room.’qa.test’.locked.
  • The new RemoteShareAdded, RemoteShareRemoved, and ActiveRemoteShareChanged APIs enable you to tell if a remote participant is sharing content into the conference and if the other participants are currently viewing that content.
  • Support for the Biamp TesiraFORTÉ CI audio device
  • The Biamp TesiraFORTÉ CI is an external codec conferencing solution that offers twelve line level inputs with AEC and eight line level outputs, thereby delivering superior audio conferencing.
  • Important bug fixes
  • In this release, we've addressed some important issues to improve usability and reliability.
  • System updates
  • For added security and stability, updates for multiple third-party packages and libraries are included as part of this release.
