- Available in group and backchannel chats
- Chats are hidden from view but remain available in the session reports
- Helps streamline live session management

See Chat and collaboration (C&C) widget for moderators in Kaltura Rooms for more information.
Word cloud
We’re excited to introduce Word cloud - a new interaction to engage participants through real-time, visual responses to a prompt. This full-screen overlay invites users to submit words or ideas, which are displayed as a dynamic word cloud.
It’s ideal for:
- Learning & Education: Helps learners explore key concepts, vocabulary, or themes through interactive word exploration
- Brainstorming Sessions: Facilitates creative thinking and idea generation in collaborative environments
- User Feedback Collection: Gathers opinions, sentiments, or responses in an engaging, visual format
- Content Discovery: Guides users through related topics or categories in an intuitive way
See Chat and collaboration (C&C) widget for moderators in Kaltura Rooms for more information.
Word cloud question in toast popup
Results are displayed in the Feed tab Storyboard preview
When hovering over or selecting items in your Kaltura Room's storyboard, you’ll now see a thumbnail preview of each slide. This enhancement helps you:
- Plan ahead: Know exactly what content is coming next without disrupting the session
- Navigate confidently: Quickly identify the right slide before switching
- Maintain session flow: Review your presentation structure without changing what participants see on screen
Version: N/A
Date Released: June 8, 2025
What's new?
Audio on storyboard
Session producers can now add audio files to their Kaltura Room sessions via the Storyboard, allowing seamless integration of audio content into sessions.
Key features:
Flexible player visibility settings - As a session producer, you can choose whether the player is visible or hidden from participants, enabling different use cases:
- Hidden player mode: Participants cannot view or interact with audio controls (except for volume). Perfect for adding background music or voice-over narration that enhances scene content.
- Visible player mode: Participants can view audio duration, and interact with volume controls. Ideal for interactive tutorials, learning modules and other educational content.
Adding audio gives you greater flexibility in designing immersive, audio-enhanced sessions tailored to your user experience goals and specific learning objectives. Read more here.
Add presentation slides as individual scenes in the storyboard
Moderators can now choose to upload presentation slides as individual scenes, instead of one grouped item. A new Add as individuals checkbox is available when uploading, which is selected by default. This gives you more flexibility to rearrange, present, or remove slides one by one.
Multi-language support for Kaltura Rooms
Kaltura Rooms now open in your selected language in Events, Video Portal and LMS integrations. Users can change the language from the hosting platform (not inside the room), and the room page will automatically refresh with the updated settings. See the list of officially supported languages here.
Version: N/A
Date Released: May 8, 2025
What's new?
We’re excited to share the latest updates to our Chat & Collaboration (C&C) experience!
Speakers engage directly
Speakers now have full access to view and answer Q&A questions and use the backchannel for easy coordination - all without leaving the C&C interface. No need to jump between screens - everything is in one place.
For example, take a look at our Events Chat & Collaboration article to learn more.
Jump right in (moderators)
Moderators can now access sessions faster than ever. Clicking 'Open Moderator App' from a session will take them directly to the relevant session view, without the need to scroll and search.
For more details, check out our Knowledge Center article.
Longer questions allowed
We’ve increased the character limit for questions across all interaction widgets from 150 to 300 characters. This improvement is ideal for longer in-session surveys, more detailed Q&A exchanges, and richer audience feedback.
Smarter notifications (and more coming!)
We’ve refreshed the notification interface for a cleaner, more intuitive experience. This also lays the groundwork for future enhancements like real-time word clouds and deeper interaction insights.
Interactions tooltips
We've added helpful tooltips to our interaction area. These tooltips guide users through the best uses for each feature while providing quick explanations and tips, helping everyone master all functionality with ease.

- We added this section to our Release Notes in order to give you a heads-up for the coming release. Please note that the content of this section is subject to changes.
- Our next release (Version 1.2.6) is planned for March 6th and it expected to include:
- Viewing Layouts: Renewed participants videos layouts. The new layouts will include:
- Active speaker(s): By default, the last up-to-6 speakers' videos will appear on the stage (adjusted to the user screen size and to the number of Live users in the room). Active speaker mode will replace the current carousel mode.
- Gallery mode: Will remain as an alternative. The performance when more than 25 participants are Live (video on) will be improved.
- Recording and webcast: Will have the active speaker mode. If a 'presenter' was set in the room, she will appear on the entire screen (when no content is shared), and alone in the video tray (when content is shared).
- Silent Reconnect. We are improving the way we handle connectivity, especially when the user connection was lost for a short period of time. User will be reconnected without noticing when possible, and auto-refresh will take place only when needed.
- Viewing Layouts: Renewed participants videos layouts. The new layouts will include:
