• Drawings stay on slide when you turn the page of a document on the whiteboard
• Restricted Room Type further optimization for 100++ participants. We have done some Stress test with the University of Umeå from Sweden and Vasaa in Finland with about 120-130 participants in a Single Conference Room (Type Restricted). They went successfull. Thanks to the Team of http://www.openkvarken.fi again
• Quality Settings in Screen Sharing Clients, contributed by Giovanni Possemato / Bitflow (http://www.bitflow.it) + RTMP-Tunneling Version of ScreenSharer fixed
• New SOAP Calls to get User-Object List including Streamname to broadcast a Video Stream out of a Conference directly
• Screen Sharing/Recording is now a separated right, therefore new layout for User-List in all room-types
• Option in Room-Settings and Administration “Audio Only” so users can only do Voice Conference in those rooms
• Video Pod hidden (Conference-Roomtype) or minimized (Webinar/Restricted-Roomtype) if User selects only Audio as device to broadcast
• Activity-Icon highlights when user speaks, now also in User-List (Room-Type Conference) instead of Video-Pod
• System Backup and Import - You can export now completely Users + Rooms + Organizations + all associations + all uploaded Files into a single ZIP and re-import that ZIP in a freshly installed OpenMeetings (of course you need an OpenMeetings Version greater 1.3 to be able to import the ZIP again) see also UpdateOpenMeetings

Major Bug fixes:

• Invitations Password does not work
• Reminder Email not beeing send before scheduled Meetings (now send 15 minutes upfront no matter if ICAL or simple Mail)
• lots of small things

The SugarCRM and Moodle Integration is fully upwards compatible.

Amazon offers already a lot of instances to install as operating system. We have been using one of the over 200 Debian operating systems that have been available.

I think the only important thing is … Never press the shutdown button in amazon (for example to save money) Cause as its a virtual machine all your data is gone!

You also need to check that you are installing OpenMeetings at a location where enough space is left.

Btw: The Video is made with the Recording Feature of OpenMeetings

You can test the Recording feature live at http://www.openmeetings.de

Features of the Recorder:

• Platform independent
• Download recorded file as FLV File (to watch offline, publish on your website or through Youtube)
• Private and Public Recordings via a Drag and Drop interface and Folders to organize Recordings
• Recording Timeline gives additional information when attendees are speaking
• Record hole screen + share screen at the the same time
• Seek in the Player to any point

Below is a sample screen from the Recording:

It is no new problem, it seems like the hardware acceleration that Adobe is proud of is only part of the Windows Platform Plugin, so that Non-Windows users can wait for a long time until they finally will receive Video On Demand in High Definition. Sorry guys but what Adobe delivers here is not more then a Proof-Of-Concept. I by myself am remind by that every day when I try to watch the Live-Cast of N-TV.de or CNN. I could be glad cause that way I hear more radio … like the famous and commercial free radio soma.fm but I guess it would be better to choose radio because I like to and not because my device does not support Flash Video for more then 10 minutes.

I tried also updating to Flash Player 10.1, I hoped to get better results. I had not the impression that it really improves anything. After encountering that RTMPT-Connection does not work for the Flash Plugin on OSx I had to uninstall everything and install 10.0.xxx again. I don’t feel like Experience Matters ^^.
