New Application Features

  • Speech-to-Text Transcription: added the ability to automatically transcribe recordings using an on-premise, GPU-accelerated transcription service, in addition to the existing AWS option
    • Added an "Auto Transcribe" group right; recordings by users in an enabled group are queued for transcription automatically when a recording finishes
    • Transcripts generate caption (VTT), plain-text, and word-searchable files, and can also be run on demand from the Review page
  • Added Playlists: compile multiple recordings into a single playlist and play through them in sequence from the Review page

    • Added a combined playback timeline that tracks progress across the recordings in a playlist
    • Playlists can be shared with other users, who receive a notification when a playlist is shared with them
  • Added new report types
    • Duration Marker report: lists duration-marker comments with their measured durations and a summary graph
    • Camera Assignment report (admin): visualizes the flow of Media Server to Camera to Rooms/Views
    • Cronbach's Alpha report: computes per-field reliability scores across evaluations
  • Added freehand drawing comments: users can draw annotations directly onto a recording during review
    • Drawings scale with and stay attached to the correct position on the video
    • Includes freehand, line, and shape tools with a dedicated drawing toolbar
    • Drawings can be edited after saving and created alongside a file attachment
  • Added a Multipoint question field to evaluation templates, with configurable rows, columns, and score values
  • Added 12-cell (4x3 and 3x4) and 16-cell (4x4) multiview grid layouts on the Observe page and in recording playback
  • Added per-camera motion detection, allowing motion detection to be enabled or disabled per camera within a room
  • Added the ability to choose between Compass (wheel) and Joystick PTZ control modes as a per-user preference
  • Added support for BEAM devices in saved Views on the Observe page
  • Added bulk recording management: multi-select on the Review page to share or change the author of multiple recordings at once
  • Added sharing-link controls that allow guests to add comments on the Observe page
  • Raised the maximum number of devices per room to 16

  • Enforced evaluation edit permissions so only the authorized author can modify an evaluation
  • Hid evaluation scores from users without the view-scores permission
