What Is the Issue?  

On December 31, 2020, Adobe® will no longer support Flash® Player. Versions of VidyoReplay prior to 20.2.0 rely on Flash; therefore, you must immediately upgrade your VidyoReplay to version 20.2.0 or you will no longer be able to play back recorded videos.

As a reminder, Enghouse Vidyo released VidyoReplay version 20.2.0 on September 21, 2020 to proactively replace Flash Player with the HTML5 Player. For more information about VidyoReplay version 20.2.0 and about Adobe’s deprecation of Flash Player, refer to the following:

• VidyoReplay Release Notes for Version 20.2.0
• VidyoReplay Product Bulletin for Version 20.2.0
• Adobe’s announcement that they will no longer support Flash Player after December 31, 2020
  
  

Which Versions Have Already Resolved the Issue?

If you have already upgraded to VidyoReplay version 20.2.0, which uses the HTML5 Player, you do not need to take any action.

Which Versions Are Still Impacted? 

VidyoReplay versions 20.1.0 and earlier rely on Flash, and therefore, are impacted by its End of Life. All of these versions must be upgraded by December 31, 2020.

What Actions Can I Take Now?

• If you are an on-premises or hybrid customer, you must upgrade by downloading version 20.2.0 from theVidyoReplay Packages article on the Vidyo Help Center.
  • For important upgrade steps, refer to the Upgrade Steps Look Up Tool article.
• If you are cloud customer, you will be automatically upgraded to version 20.2.0 in the coming weeks.
