DW Spectrum® IPVMS v4.2.0.32842 Release Notes

New Firmware Version:  v4.2.0.32842

Current Firmware Version:  v4.2.0.32660

Release Date:  May 3, 2021

 

New Features

OS Platform Support Changes

  • Windows 7 compatibility support ended.
  • Windows 2008 R2 compatibility support ended.
  • Added support for MacOS 11 in the desktop client.

 

New Features and Changes

  • Redesigned PTZ controls - PTZ controls have been redesigned for improved UX.
    • Advanced PTZ activates only when the Shift key is pressed.
  • Intel® Quick Sync Video - Intel® Quick Sync Video uses the dedicated media processing capabilities of Intel® Graphics Technology to decode and encode fast, enabling the processor to complete other tasks and improving system responsiveness. Vastly improves the ability of low power hardware (e.g. Intel Atom, Celeron) and the ability of the Desktop Client to decode very high resolution (e.g. 16 MP, 32MP) cameras and streams.
    • Go to Local Settings in the Desktop Client and check the “Use Hardware Video Decoding” checkbox to enable Intel Quick Sync Video.
    • “Use Hardware Video Decoding” is unchecked by default.
  • Fisheye lens projection options - Improve fisheye dewarping precision by selecting the most suitable lens projection type:
    • Equisolid
    • Equidistant
    • Stereographic

 

New Device Support

  • Added advanced PTZ support for Hikvision IPC6412LR-X5P, IPC6854SR-X38UP-VC, IPC6222E-X33UP, IPC6222EI-X22UP-C.

  • Camera name can now be overlayed when capturing a screenshot.
  • Archived video encoded with H.264 codec and exported to MP4 or AVI format can be played back in Windows Media Player.
  • Server will re-initialize cameras when packets are not received from the secondary stream for more than 10 seconds.
  • The maximum value for pre-recording and post-recording actions in camera recording events can now be set up to 600 seconds.

  • Only administrators can see servers in the Desktop Client “About" dialog.
  • Added the ability to playback audio from all devices on the scene in the Desktop Client.
    • To enable this feature, open Main Menu > Local Settings > General and select the checkbox next to "Play audio from all cameras on layout".
  • The Server could not store analytics data on some Ubuntu servers due to selecting partitions which it didn't have write access to. If the Server does not have write access to a particular partition, it can no longer be selected to store analytics data.
  • ”Allow only secure connections” (HTTPS traffic only) is turned on by default.
  • The in-client web browser now saves user credentials between browser sessions.
  • Added TLS support for LDAP on Linux-based systems.

  • Hotkeys changes:
    • [+] [−] keys are no longer used to zoom in or out on the Layout.
    • Shift + arrow keys are now used to select a camera on the Layout.

 

Software Analytics Improvements

  • The DW analytics plugin has been added to the Windows and Linux installers.
  • Notifications generated by Start/Stop events are now labeled with either “Started“ or “Stopped” to differentiate them from one another.
  • The way that ROI data is overlaid on cameras was divided into two groups: "Show Region of Interest" and "Objects". “Show Region of Interest” makes ROI objects visible on cameras without object tracking support if the "Display on Video" option is enabled in Camera Settings > Plugins. “Show objects” makes ROI objects and camera analytics objects visible only on cameras that support object tracking.

Known Limitations

  • Due to a firmware issue affecting Bosch cameras, sometimes events are triggered but not shown in the desktop client.
  • Hardware decoding doesn't work on PC-based Ubuntu systems.
  • Hardware decoding is disabled, if there are 2 graphic adapters and the primary is not Intel®. In this case users should set up a “primary display” to Intel® adapter to make hardware acceleration work.
  • "Error 404. Cannot find the page. Check the URL and try again" shows up on the Web Page tab in Camera Settings for Hanwha NVRs. The web page will be correctly displayed after users click "OK".
