Summary

This feature update introduces live proctoring with Zoom, adds support for basic screen sharing in the integrated browser and fixes various issues reported by the community.

Changes

  • Added support for basic screen sharing in the integrated browser (#99).
  • Implemented temporary file download & upload directory for integrated browser.
  • Fixed possible data leak in proctoring implementation.
  • Improved error message for display monitoring.
  • Improved generic start error message to always include the log files of the affected session.
  • Extended default list of prohibited applications.
  • Fixed issue where links in PDF documents didn't work due to a bug in the browser engine (see https://bitbucket.org/chromiumembedded/cef/issues/3143/pdf-link-navigation-not-working).
  • Updated browser engine to version 91.1.21 (Chromium version 91.0.4472.114).

Optional features which need to be individually configured and are disabled by default

  • Added live proctoring support for Zoom and improved live proctoring integration with SEB Server.
  • Improved handshake procedure with SEB Server.

Known Issues

  • Live proctoring isn't compatible with kiosk mode Create New Desktop due to an issue in WebView2 (see MicrosoftEdge/WebView2Feedback#960). Thus, if live proctoring is active, the kiosk mode will always automatically be set to Disable Explorer Shell.
