These scoring rubrics will determine the accessibility scores of documents based on a strict set of criteria. To know how each rubric aligns with the types of documents an institution might have, administrators can review different scenarios to determine which rubric best suits them.
   
2. New Audio-Player for Audio Podcasts and OCR Audio with Visual Waveform and Playback Speed Controls

6. New Redesign of the Content Report – Simplified Viewing of Data for Documents Processed and Alternative Formats Downloaded
   Previously, administrators would have to look at two charts to compare and analyze the files processed by Panorama and those processed by document type. We’ve consolidated both charts into a simple-to-view line graph showing the total files processed and files processed by each document type. Similarly, this feature extends to the Alternative Formats’ charts within the Content Report, showing the total number of Alternative Formats downloaded and a breakdown of each format downloaded.

    We’ve redesigned the Storage Report to allow administrators to compare their institution’s overall file storage with different document types within a single graph.
    
13. New Redesign of the Course Report – Compare the Overall Accessibility Score with Each Document Type
    We’ve enhanced the Course Report graph, enabling users to assess a course’s overall accessibility score and compare it with the accessibility scores of individual document types within the course. Users can also, based on preference, choose between a chart or table view for the files processed and Alternative Formats downloaded within the course.
    
14. View the Total Number of Improved Documents Within Each Course
    Administrators can access the Course Analytics in their LMS Report to view the total number of documents improved in each course.
    
15. Option to Ignore SSO Role Mapping in Favor of LMS Mapping
    Recognizing that most institutions favor mapping roles based on their LMS, administrators can choose to disable SSO role mapping. This ensures that user mappings are only determined by their LMS roles.

   Previously, we provided two options to import Microsoft Teams recordings—a server-side Microsoft Teams API integration and our client-side YuJa app. However, the API integration had limitations regarding imports, restricted access to managing them, and weak support from Microsoft. As a result, we’ve decided to transition all clients to the YuJa Microsoft Teams app. This change will allow Content Creators to manage their recordings more efficiently and with a simplified integration process.
   
2. New Thumbnail UI for Archived Content
   We’ve enhanced the thumbnail for cold archived media by adding a transparent overlay to the original thumbnail of archived content.

    For institutions with a secondary Zoom enterprise license, they now have the option to integrate this secondary account with the Video Platform instance. This will allow the secondary account to import users to the Video Platform while the primary account will still have full access to all integration settings.
    
12. Enhanced Single Sign-On Security by Automatically Assigning a Fingerprint Value
    The Video Platform ensures secure user logins by automatically assigning a fingerprint value if none was added during SSO SAML integration. Administrators can also add a secondary fingerprint for enhanced security in case the primary one becomes invalid.
