Create a Remote Recorder Kiosk application

Jeremy May, (one of my fellow Panopto admins at Notre Dame) had a great idea which I'm happy to pass along.
Since the upgrade to Windows 11, Remote Recorder no longer functions as seamlessly as it used to. Currently, it must be run in either kiosk mode or ARSO.
It would be very helpful if you could develop a dedicated Remote Recorder kiosk application. Something we could launch in kiosk mode (instead of calc.exe) which would display the status of the Remote Recorder.
Things like:
- Verification of communication with the server and the Remote Recorder's status
- Basic Remote Recorder Information
- Name
- IP Address
- Remote Recorder Version #
- Status of audio and video devices
- Thumbnails for sources
- Audio levels
- Information regarding the recording in progress
- Name
- Start time
- End time
- Destination Folder
- Next scheduled recording
- etc.
This would be purely informational—no interactive elements—just a clear indication that the Remote Recorder is functioning correctly while in kiosk mode.
In fact, this could turn the Windows 11 Remote Recorder bug into a feature.
Thanks!
