IMPROVEMENTS

RightSight 2

Sub-Tiling for Grid View brings the Sight-like people-framing experience to Rally Bars. With this release, Grid View is now on by default.

Existing devices that upgrade to CollabOS 1.13 will retain the current setting.
New devices or existing devices that are factory reset and complete OOBE (out-of-box setup) will have Sub-Tiling on by default.

Issue Reporting

You can now upload audio recordings (previously, only video was supported) as part of the issue-reporting process.
All audio and video files are secured with end-to-end encryption. The reporter must share the generated password with the support team to grant them access to the files. To learn more, click here.

Sync Remote UI Access

The in-room Remote UI session indicator is now red, and in-room participants in certain configurations can end an active Remote UI session directly from the controller.
Quick access buttons have been added to provide access to CollabOS device settings.
A sound notification has been added when a Sync Remote UI session starts for better in-room awareness.

Local Network Access

You can now replace the default Logitech self-signed LNA web server certificate with an alternate certificate and private key.

Updated Time Zone Rules

We’ve updated the system to ensure the time zone database is up to date with recent global changes.

Image Enhancement (Rally Bar Mini)

The image quality has been improved by correcting the image distortion that is common on wider field-of-view lenses. Participants should now appear more geometrically accurate, especially those on the edge of the lens.
