MuteDeck v2.9.4

This release is all [mostly] about Microsoft Teams!
  • Support for Microsoft Teams v25072.1704.3539.4369
    (I know, right?), which has been rolling out slowly starting April 6:
The third-party integration API was changed around setting up a new pairing. If you already were paired with this Teams version, you probably hadn't noticed. If you have been trying to pair MuteDeck to this Teams versions and it wasn't successful; now it will be.
  • Sometimes Teams also sends a malformed message through their third-party API, which MuteDeck couldn't read. This mostly happens on non-English Teams versions. MuteDeck will now try and correct the message and read it anyway.
  • This MuteDeck version wil also be better with Microsoft Team
    call timeouts
    :
It could happen that MuteDeck stop thinking Teams was in a call, to detect it a few seconds later. This was because the Teams third-party API can have a very long response time (12 seconds or more). MuteDeck now allows those longer response times.
Other changes
  • Windows:
    Fix the window being always on top when starting MuteDeck, even if the setting was disabled.
  • Fix the
    Browser Extension
    setting also disabling the Stream Deck, Loupedeck, Touch Portal, and other integrations. It's supposed to only control the Chrome and Firefox extensions.
p.s. we used 2.9.2 and 2.9.3 for testing purposed, that's why this release jumps to 2.9.4. 😉

MuteDeck v2.9 & Browser extension v4.0

MuteDeck v2.9.1
  • New support to control Riverside.fm podcast sessions
  • Rename
    Google Meet
    active application setting to
    Browser Extension
    . This is because there are much more meetings controlled via the browser extension, like google meet, the web versions of Zoom and Microsoft Teams, StreamYard, and now Riverside.fm sessions.
  • Fixes for app window resizing when selecting a new button size, and general improvements on the user-interface to make it better looking.
Browser extension v4.0.2
  • Support for Riverside.fm
  • Fixed issues with sending custom actions on Windows
  • Fixed the "Bring to Front" action, which now selects the meeting tab and brings the browser window to the foreground
  • The popup now shows a helpful message when you're on an unsupported website, replacing the confusing empty status indicators for mute, video, and other controls.

new

v2.8.1

  • Windows: Support Zoom v6.2+
  • Allow custom actions without any modifiers (ctrl, shift, etc.) to send a series of keys.
  • Resize window when the button size is changed, without having to reopen it.

new

v2.8

MuteDeck App
New: Hotkeys
A highly requested feature, hotkeys are now available to make managing your meetings even easier. With hotkeys, you can set a keyboard shortcut for each built-in action: muting, video control, sharing, recording, and leaving the meeting.
This means you no longer need to reach for your Stream Deck, Loupedeck, or other device integrated with MuteDeck—you can instantly mute yourself or perform other actions using a keyboard shortcut.
It’s even possible to integrate meeting controls with other devices (such as keyboard macro keys) that can send shortcuts.
New: Settings Window
We’ve moved the settings from the slide-out section to a dedicated window, organized with tabs to group different settings. This makes navigating and managing settings easier and less overwhelming.
Others
  • Ensured that the status API always returns the call field, even if no call is active (setting it to "inactive" in that case).
  • Added support for Stream, a white-label video streaming service. This integration uses a custom browser extension, and we’ve added recognition of their logo in this release. More info here: https://getstream.io/blog/streamdeck-mutedeck/

v2.7

MuteDeck App
✨ New:
  • Support for Chrome extension v3.0 & Firefox extension.
  • Support for Zoom v6 (Windows & macOS).
  • Support for StreamYard to manage live or recorded streams using MuteDeck.
🐛 Fixed:
  • Fix possible crashes when notifications (Busylights or webhooks) are enabled and endpoints aren’t available or respond too slowly.
  • Fix German translation support for Zoom (v6).
  • Fix the size of the window when using the small buttons - make sure the window stays small.
  • Fix not correctly set 'Enable System Microphone' when the client starts. If you disabled that setting, it would be enabled when you restart the client.
✨ Google Chrome extension v3.0
  • Support for StreamYard!
  • Support for the web version of Zoom and Microsoft Teams! All languages are supported, so no caveats here. 😊
  • Support for StreamYard.
  • Updated the extension name to “MuteDeck” from “MuteDeck for Google Meet” to fit the new functionalities.
🔥 New Firefox Extension v3.0
I'm excited to introduce a Firefox extension, so you can have meetings inside Firefox and manage them using MuteDeck! The Firefox extension is exactly the same as the Chrome extension, so you can control Google Meet, StreamYard, and web calls on Zoom and Microsoft Teams. Get it here: https://mutedeck.com/firefox-extension

new

v2.6.1

Maintenance release with a few improvements & fixes:
  • Improve a few interface things, like the font color for links on Windows.
  • Don't require administrative permissions when installing or updating MuteDeck.
  • Allow the MuteDeck window to be moved to a second screen above the monitor that it's currently on.
  • Show an error when MuteDeck isn't able to open the network service that's needed for communication with Stream Deck, Loupedeck and other decks, or the Chrome extension, or the API.
  • macOS: Make sure "MuteDeck" shows up in the Security settings, and not "MuteDeckMaintenanceTool"
  • macOS: Fix an issue where the app wouldn't show the first time you opened it, but did the second time.

new

v2.6

MuteDeck App
  • ✨ Add a new notification:
    webhooks
    . This is for automation-wizards 🧙 - MuteDeck can send a HTTP call to a URL of your choice and inform it of a change in your meeting status. More information here.
  • ✨ Handle
    Bring to front
    for Google Meet much, much better (see extension notes below).
  • ✨ Add
    SSL
    support to the web socket server, which the Google Chrome extension can use. For environments where non-SSL web sockets aren't allowed (high security browser settings).
  • 🐛 Improve license handling; the license was sometimes deactivating unnecessary for some people.
  • 🐛 macOS: Fix possible double app run where the first instance was unresponsive and the second instance ran normally.
Chrome Extension for Google Meet
  • ✨ The extension now supports
    all languages
    for Google Meet! You do not need to set your Google account to English anymore.
  • ✨
    Bring to front
    now activates the tab where Google Meet is in, and brings the browser window to the front of your other apps.
  • 🐛 Fix recording toggling for paid Google Meet plans.
Update the extension from here: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/mutedeck-for-google-meet/egphpgddoenbpakmaojmnjpjoflmknjk?hl=en
NOTE
: When upgrading the Chrome extension, you'll need to approve additional permissions before the extension is loaded. The
Browsing history
permission is awkwardly named, and required for the Bring to Front feature. MuteDeck doesn't look at your browser history.

new

v2.5

  • Add support for the New Microsoft Teams (v2) Third-party app API. Learn how to set it up here.
  • Make it possible to toggle the chat window on Teams v2 via MuteDeck's API. Stream Deck, and other plugins to be updated at a later date.

new

v2.4.1

Microsoft Teams "legacy" support on macOS
Microsoft updated the Teams version 1 client this week, and changed its name to "Microsoft Teams (legacy) on macOS. MuteDeck needed to be updated to support that. This is the only change for this release.

new

v2.4

New: Support for Plenom Busylights
Good news for those with a Plenom Busylight! MuteDeck v2.4 can now synchronise the meeting status with your Busylight. Turning it red when you're on a meeting, and turning it green when you're available. Check out this tweet for an example.
For more information about this integration, check out this help center article.
Microsoft Teams v2 Support on Windows
Currently in early access, version 2 of Teams is on its way. The Teams interface has changed from v1, and MuteDeck wasn't compatible with v2. This release adds support for Teams v2 on Windows, with macOS coming in the future.
Microsoft has not added the Third-Party API yet in v2, but once they do - MuteDeck will be fully compatible with the Teams API.
Other changes
  • Missing Licenses
    : Given certain conditions, it was possible for MuteDeck to "lose" its license. I've made enhancements that should prevent this from happening - so no more having to reactivate your license.
  • Fix a crash on Windows
    : When a call just ended (or not properly detected with Teams v2), pressing the mute button could crash MuteDeck.
  • Easier access to enter a license
    : Add a button on the 'trial expired' popup to open the enter license window.
