Active Learning Hardened Against Connection Freezes

Improvements

Active Learning Enhancements

Retry Active Learning Connections When Dropped

• If an Active Learning connection is dropped from a secondary display, the primary display will attempt to reestablish the connection. This update reduces the need for user intervention where before users would have needed to manually reestablish the secondary display connection.

Active Learning Hardened Against Connection Freezes

• Multiple connection/disconnection sharing activities during a single Active Learning session could previously result in the session freezing unless reset. With this release, Active Learning was improved to prevent intermittent freezes under these conditions.

Web App Enhancements

Audio Volume Auto Adjusts During Web Share on Windows

• Clientless web-based sharing to the Pod of videos containing audio abnormalities will no longer attempt to accommodate by adjusting the volume. With this release, audio volume will remain consistent throughout the sharing experience.

Resolved Issues

USB to RS232 Adapter Not Shutting Off Displays

• An issue was reported involving displays connected to Pods via USB cable and RS232 adapters which prevented power management serial commands from being delivered to the attached displays. With this release, the serial signal sent from the Pod to the display has been altered to ensure the display is suspended or will wake based on the serial command sent.

Scheduled Reboots Occurring at Random Times

• Reports were received of scheduled reboots not taking place at their regularly scheduled times. Scheduled reboot functionality has been updated in this release to correct this issue.

HTTPS Redirect to Hostname Not Working

• An issue was reported where attempts to connect to the Pod via the HTTP web interface using the Pod’s IP address would not redirect to HTTPS and show the hostname if these settings were enabled on the Pod. With this release, Pods will respond properly to HTTPS redirects to hostname.

PowerPoint Extended Presentation Slide Advancement Delays on Windows 11 24H2

• A Windows 11 24H2 update was reported which can impact the Mersive Solstice client “Extended Presentation Mode” feature (not enabled by default). The issue prevented the client from adequately tracking PowerPoint slide advancement when viewed in Extended Presentation Mode. Corrective measures were added to the Mersive Solstice 6.2.1 client in order to accommodate the latest operating system changes.

iPad AirPlay Video Frame Sharing Lag

• Video content shared via AirPlay from an Apple iPad may appear choppy. Solstice Pod updates were made to the AirPlay sharing feature in order to help address the reported issue.

New Mersive SSL Security Certificate for use with share.mersive.com

• Solstice Pods on version 6.1.2 or higher reach out to kepler-backend.mersive.com in order to request updated default SSL Security Certificate used for share.mersive.com communication. This operation occurs automatically upon Pod reboot. Solstice Pod version 6.2.1 is packaged with a base default Mersive SSL Security Certificate which expires February 3, 2026. With version 6.2.1, an additional check was added every 24 hours. This eliminates the need for a Pod reboot in order to reach out and request, download, and apply a more up-to-date default SSL Security Certificate.
