Am I right, that we cannot test Windows Softphone 5.4 beta with 3CX v20 u7 stable?
 
You can but you will not have Department phonebook functionality.
 
Is there any update as to when the Video Function will work on the Windows App?
 
@ThomB_3CX will the Windows Softphone V5.4 contain fixes for the Yealink Headset integration.

We have so many issues with Yealink Headsets and other also have, see below. Most of the issues do not appear when you turn of the headset integration. Hard to understand, given that Yealink is the recommended supported 3CX Headset vendor.

@Florian87 Thanks for your feedback

We are working with yealink on these. We were provided an updated firmware for their SDK but from our internal testing, it is more problematic and we most certainly cannot include it.

Will keep you posted
 
In terms of quality of the firmware and of the hardware, you have to take it up with yealink. We have literally nothing to do with this....
 
@N_G just to avoid frustration, would it be worth to recommend Jabra over Yealink? From a partner or customer perspective I just would like to know what works well and what not on a integraton level. Within my ticket #2228650 3CX did never state that there are know problems with the firmware/sdk... as @ThomB_3CX said above. Here https://www.3cx.com/sip-phones/ only Yealink seems to be officially supported.
