Thanks for the feedback! All very good points. We are working on an update coming soon that will address some of the issues you point out:

 

  • Removing Surface Pro 4 Front/Rear cameras (after this change, most deployments will only have 1 camera so device selection will not be necessary)
  • The settings page will allow admins to configure (1) Speaker and Mic for Conferencing and (2) Speaker for HDMI ingest
  • Regularly logging Skype health data (ie. app is running, signed in, front of room screen plugged in, etc) to an Event Log for OMS (or any other service) to pickup and raise alerts

Good to know, Dave.  I was going to toss together a PS script to do our 'tweaks', but that takes some work off my plate.  Any rough schedule on updates, and do those just push as part of Windows Updates, or will we need to do anything by hand to update the app?

 

Also, is there anything in the works for the additional gallery view options I mentioned above?
