This feature enables users to extend the length of a call if their HoloLens device is overheating.

Feature details

On longer Dynamics 365 Remote Assist HoloLens calls, the HoloLens device can become hot if it's using several device capabilities at the same time (for example, multiple cameras, Mixed Reality Capture, and Wi-Fi). This feature enables users to extend the length of the call and keep the device from overheating. Dynamics 365 Remote Assist gradually reduces outgoing video quality (resolution and frame rate) and provides a series of messages to let users know how and why outgoing video quality is being adjusted.
