Additions

  • No new additions

Fixes

  • The CZA-1300 devices wouldn't properly remove device driver objects, causing the device status to flicker between yellow and green. This issue has been resolved, so the drivers are now properly removed and display the correct status.

  • When connecting an ITC to a CZA-1300 device, certain layouts wouldn't appear during triggered events. This has been fixed to ensure the layouts appear correctly during events.

  • In ViewPath, the Live button would not work on Chromium browsers. This has been fixed to work properly on those browsers

  • We found that in some instances, the camera streams would not load for teachers. This has been resolved, the streams will work correctly now.

  • We found that user-uploaded ITC images were not included in the EPIC backup file, and upon upgrading to EPIC 3.0.0, those images would be lost. We made a change to ensure these images are saved in the backup and will display properly in EPIC 3.0.0.
