AirPlay FairPlay support

Improvements

Require passphrase change on first login

• This change affects video devices running RoomOS 11.27.2.0 or later that are in a factory reset state—either newly received devices or devices that have been manually reset.
• To comply with EU regulations and enhance device security, a passphrase is now required for the device admin account. By default, no passphrase is set, and you must create one before using the device.
• During the standard setup process, you'll be prompted to set a passphrase via the setup wizard. Once set, you can use it to log in normally.
• However, if you attempt to access the device through the web interface or other methods (e.g., SSH), you will be required to change the passphrase before access is granted.
• Important: If you use automation or scripted routines to configure devices, note that SSH access now requires a passphrase update. These scripts must be adapted to handle this new requirement during setup.

Director to use Virtual Lens

• This feature automatically extends the camera's reach using an AI-powered virtual lens, ensuring that active speakers—such as those seated at the far end of a long table—are captured in higher quality. No configuration or user interaction is required.

AirPlay FairPlay support

• Our AirPlay implementation now supports FairPlay and can now playback DRM protected content in out-of-call scenarios. Protected content will never play in call sharing scenarios.
• Note that applications that has no support for FairPlay, such as Netflix will not be able to playback content using AirPlay on the Room Devices.

Screen-reader support (Accessibility)

• We're introducing a new accessibility feature designed to improve usability for visually impaired users. Once enabled, the touch screen can be operated using specific gestures.
• To enable the screen reader, tap the screen with three fingers and swipe down. The screen reader will begin reading aloud the item currently selected. You can then navigate the interface by swiping to move between elements such as Call, Share, and more. When the desired option is selected, double-tap anywhere on the screen to activate it. When using the keypad, each selected letter will also be read aloud.
• To disable the screen reader, repeat the same gesture: tap with three fingers and swipe down.

Webview in share tray

• Previously, it was not possible to access or share a webview directly. With this update, when a webview is launched, it will now appear in the share tray, allowing users to easily select and share it during a call or meeting.
• We've also added support in the APIs to allow integrators to share webviews programmatically using the following command: xCommand Presentation Start PresentationSource: WebView WebViewId: ID
• The xStatus UserInterface WebView node provides the WebViewId, and the WebView X Sharing status will indicate "True" when a webview is actively being shared.
• This feature simplifies integration for developers and improves usability by allowing users to choose which webview to share—or to identify which one is currently being shared.

Whitebalance calibration for multicamera setup

• In a multicamera setup using Cross View, differences in white balance can make the video feeds appear inconsistent — especially when PTZ 4K cameras are used as side cameras. To address this, we’ve introduced three white balance profiles. When you select a profile on the touch panel, the video inputs will be displayed on screen, allowing you to compare them and choose the profile that best suits your meeting room.
• To access this feature, open the touch panel, go to Device Settings, then Cameras, and select White Balance. From there, you can view and test the different profiles directly with the live video inputs.
