Important: The Docker image is configured to convert the current database to your MariaDB version automatically. As such, we would recommend backing up the database before upgrading to any version as you may be unable to downgrade otherwise.

Note: Due to the need to build caches, the upgrader may take a while to run if you have a large number of projects and/or a large number of files.

Major New Features:

• Single-Sign On (Preview) - You can now have authentication handled by a third-party SAML provider. This can be enabled from the Configure page of the Admin Area. If you enter the wrong details and end up locked out, delete config/sso_config.php to disable SSO.
• UI refresh - darker color scheme, new fonts, new icons, layout improvements.
• Higher quality thumbnails and better handling of non-16:9 thumbnail sizes
• Redesigned login flow
• New permissions - modifying other users' files and modifying other users' comments. This allows you to modify others' assets without needing to be an admin
• Saved Searches - Save an advanced search to apply it as a file filter. (Note that while you can apply a filter that searches the entire project, in most cases you will want it to only apply to the current folder.)
• Template Projects - Create a template project with folders, saved searches, departments, users, tasks and workflows. These can be applied when creating a new project
• Custom Encoding Profiles - Change the frame size, bitrate, etc of the videos created by Kollaborate Encoder. (Requires Kollaborate Encoder 1.8.) This can be edited from the Admin Area of the webserver. Note that while you can create multiple proxies of different frame sizes, this is of limited utility right now because you can't switch between them in the player. We plan to offer more features to enable this in future.

• Admin - Overhauled the UI of the Tools page
• History is now shown in the project navigation bar to increase accessibility of this feature

Update: This build fixes a hang some users were experiencing at startup.

Variables can now be entered into parameter values on the New Project page, as well as default values and prefixes / suffixes in the Parameters pane of Preferences.

This allows you to create more complex naming conventions with repeating values, without having to enter redundant information. For example, you could add "[project number]-" as a prefix to all other parameters so that every subfolder in the path contains the project number.

Kollaborate Server 3.7 is a major update with thousands of code changes, mainly on the backend, to modernize and improve reliability. It also contains many new features and quality-of-life improvements.

Important: We're now using MariaDB instead of MySQL and the Docker image is configured to convert the database to your MariaDB version automatically. As such, we would recommend backing up the database before upgrading to any version as you may be unable to downgrade otherwise.
