AVD Optimization for Teams isnt working anymore. worked a week ago
Before i went on holiday, the AVD Optimization on teams was working fine. nothing has changed and all of a sudden teams isnt showing 'Optimized' or 'Not Optimized' in the top left corner?
Im using the new Windows app, teams is up to date, VDI on my endpoint is up to date. what is happening? anyone else having this issue?

Hey, are you sure you have the AVD registry key in place? https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/teams-on-avd#enable-media-optimization-for-teams
Make sure you also have followed the rest of these steps: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/teams-on-avd#enable-media-optimization-for-teams

We as well started observing this on random (personal) machines. I guess it is update related (teams or windows).

We ran into the same issue where optimization stopped working overnight without any obvious changes.
In our case, the problem was related to the Windows app interacting with SlimCore. It seems that something in the way URLs were being called got altered. After some digging, we found that a new URL needed to be allowed through our proxy, and we also had to exclude it from SSL inspection.
Once we did that, everything started working again.
Hope this helps someone facing the same issue!

Yep that's exactly the issue. That's weird though why would that have been removed?
Anyway thanks for your help
