IBM Lotus Sametime 7.5 Release Notes Known limitations, problems, and workarounds

In telephony, Mute may not work as expected

When using telephony, the Mute features may not work as expected, depending on how the audio bridge

responds to the Mute requests.

1. When the moderator chooses "Mute All", a mute with lock may result on everyone in the meeting

except the moderator. If any users need to be unmuted, the moderator must unmute those users.

2. When a user mutes himself, a mute with lock may result. If this user needs to be unmuted, the

moderator must unmute the user. Furthermore, anytime a user mutes himself, the moderator may

unmute the user at any time.

Linux: Meeting page may overlap with frame border

If you are using Mozilla on Linux, the meeting page may overlap with the frame border.

Preferences/Status Messages - In a Meeting settings

In the Status Messages section of Preferences, the settings for "In a Meeting" do not consistently occur if

the user changes the status by entering an online meeting from a community that is not the primary

community. The primary community is the first one the UIM client was set up with.

Some German characters may not work in shared application

Sometimes, when a remote user inputs special German characters into a shared application during a

Sametime meeting, the application may not work correctly.

The date/time format in unlisted meeting pages is unlocalized

When searching for an unlisted meeting, the date/time format in the search results may not follow a

language-specific format.

Users joining multiple meetings

Users can log in to only one meeting on one Sametime server at a time. If users want to join more than

one meeting or web conference at a time, they can do so only if a Community Services cluster has been

created.

If a user logs in to a meeting, then attempts to log in to a second meeting, he or she is evicted from the

first meeting, and refused access to the second meeting. To solve the problem, create a community

services cluster, and specify the cluster in the configuration for the home Sametime server.
