Remote Skype web sign-in

 

Allows customers that rely on Skype web sign-in to a Trio remotely.  In previous versions, Skype web sign-in was triggered on the Trio interface so customers would need to be in front of the Trio to Skype web sign-in.

 

In 5.9, we allow administrators to log into the Trio’s web utility to obtain the web sign-in pairing code.

 

There is also a new REST API that will also generate the web sign-in pairing code for future integration to management systems like PDMS and RPRM.

Hide TV avatar when in an audio-only call

 

Since Trio UC Software 5.9.0 a new configuration parameter allows customers that hate the grey avatar from showing up on the TV UI when its an audio-only call. Less user confusion and peace of mind that it is only audio only call

 

 

<test video.callMode.default="audio" />

 

The above configuration starts a call always as Audio call and enables the user to chose to add Video.

 

Usually, this would present the Avatar during the call:

 

imageTo show grey avatar on TV, set value to 1 (default)

 

With the new configuration, it shows the Idle Screen instead

 

image

 

Sample Configuration:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<PHONE_CONFIG>
    <ALL
        video.conf.displayLayout.avatars.audioCalls="0"
    />
</PHONE_CONFIG>
