Enhancements
Play Video
In order to improve the performance of the Play Video feature across different devices, we have made several modifications to this experience.
- Videos may be muted by default on some platforms to prevent issues with playback;
- A blue banner has been introduced at the top of the video frame to indicate who is controlling playback;
Additionally, we now support Vimeo as an additional content provider! Vimeo videos can be uploaded and controlled using the same process and workflow as YouTube videos.
Ability to Clear Chat
Class chat threads will automatically clear after 8 hours. If, however, an instructor needs to clear the chat history sooner than this point, they can now do so using the option shown below.
