What’s New in Version 6.6
The RealPresence Capture Station Pro and Portable Pro appliances are new appliances that replace the
outgoing RealPresence Capture Station SD, HD, and Mobile appliances. The Polycom RealPresence
Capture Station Pro and Portable Pro appliances have been completely redesigned for simple, efficient
installation, configuration, and integration with the Polycom RealPresence Media Manager solution. The
appliances are equipped with more powerful processors and a wider choice of input sources, from
standard definition
—Separate Video (S-Video), Component, and Video Graphics Array (VGA)—to high
definition
—Digital Video Interface (DVI) and High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI). The new
RealPresence Capture Station Pro and Portable Pro appliances are based on Windows Embedded 7,
and they enable organizations of any size to record and stream high-quality multimedia presentations
from any audiovisual (A/V) equipped meeting room, classroom, or auditorium.
The RealPresence Capture Station Pro appliances are preconfigured to work with RealPresence Media
Manager 6.5 or 6.6 software. You can operate the RealPresence Capture Station appliances manually in
the same room as the appliance or remotely using the RealPresence Media Manager software.
In addition to new hardware, RealPresence Capture Station Pro 6.6 software includes many
enhancements, new features, and new software options designed to improve usability, such as the
improved Media Manager Wizard to simplify integration with RealPresence Media Manager software.
