'''VidyoDesktop 3 Goes Live!''' | |||
Thanks to those who provided feedback on Vidyo 3, we've used it to fix a few things and now its ready for prime time. A mandatory and automatic update will be pushed on Monday morning, April 21st - for those that want to check out the client now, the download link is noted below [1]. Ample notice will be provided before v2 is no longer supported. | |||
Some of the new features include: | |||
* Simplified UI w/ no Flash (means fewer crashes for you)! | |||
* Client auto sign-in w/ secure token (you no longer need to frequently type in your LDAP password to login) | |||
* Enhanced echo-cancellation for all OSs (especially for Macs!) | |||
* Ability to join any meeting by clicking a Vidyo room URL | |||
* Improved support and stability for Linux | |||
