Thank you for your continued patience. We have identified an issue causing high latency in certain situations when using the Rescue 7.50 Tech Console. The issue is being investigated at a high priority, we apologize for any inconvenience.   Please continue to follow this thread to be emailed for updates.  Please find the two workarounds below.

 

Option 1:  Turn off Next Gen Media Service within the Tech Console:

  1. In the upper left, click on Options
  2. Select "Use classic screen transfer"

Please Note: The selection will be remembered for future sessions, it will not need to be selected each time.

 

 

 

Option 2:  Disable NextGen media for Technician Groups in the Admin Center:

  1.  Select Tech Group in the tree on the left
  2.  Go to Permissions
  3.  Add a checkmark to the last option "Disallow media stream in Rescue sessions for technicians"
  4. Click Save

Please Note:  The above will not discontinue ALL media streams, only the NextGen media streams. The Technicians will revert back to Classic media streams as normal.
