Available now, Firmware 4.24.4 for the Pearl family of encoders, this release focuses on improving reliability and reducing manual effort for teams using Panopto, along with key fixes and workflow enhancements across CMS integrations.
You can now monitor live audio directly from the Panopto Admin interface. This gives operators immediate visibility into audio capture during lectures, making it easier to catch and resolve issues before they impact the final recording.
Re-upload all recordings for a session directly from the Pearl web interface with a single click. This removes the need to manually locate and upload individual files when restoring content in Panopto.
Recordings across Pearl channels are now more accurately synchronized during uploads to Panopto, helping ensure consistency across all captured sources.
Events that are both streamed and recorded are now properly labeled as Live + VOD. Previously, these events could appear as VOD only, creating confusion in downstream workflows.
This release also includes important fixes to improve overall system stability:
Firmware 4.24.2 is available as a free update for all Pearl Nexus, Pearl Mini, Pearl Nano, and Pearl-2 systems. To install, download to your device with a free Epiphan Edge™ account which gives you cloud control of your devices, or update with the local web UI on your device.
