Immersive View
Recreate the feel of your classroom, conference room or choose from several other scene options, by placing video participants onto a single virtual background. Participants are automatically placed onto provided scenes, but the host can upload their own custom background and adjust the arrangements as needed. This requires client version 5.6.3 or higher. This will be enabled by default for Free and single Pro users, and disabled for all other users and account types.

Additional Network Device Options for Room Controls - Mac, Win, Appliances
Administrators can now leverage link-local IP addressing (169.254.X.X) as well as hostname addressing (shure-mxa-3) on devices in the Room Controls JSON Profile. These changes allow organizations that leverage devices on closed or dynamic networks to forgo expensive routing equipment and reduce labor costs for custom configurations on each device's network settings. Modern networks (where static addressing is being phased out) can define a hostname rather than a static IP address and prevent downtime during IP space changes across the network.
