Known bugs ========== 5.20:L01 When using manually triggered events it's possible to trigger event number two on top of event number one. If for example activating an ouput port for 10 seconds, waiting 5 seconds then activating the event again will cause port to be active for another 10 seconds after the first event has elapsed. Activating the trigger more than two times won't have any effect. 5.20:L02 During automatic license installation, using a information with swedish letters å, ä, ö will not work. The server will respond with "400 Bad Request". This is because of the browser encoding these letters as iso-8859-1 and not UTF-8. 5.20:L03 In Internet Expolorer 7 or 8 if one forgets to enter an application when using application trigger a script error occur. 5.20:L04 When using remote desktop or vmware: It is not possible to configure any lines, windows or polygons when streaming with rtsp. 5.20:L04 RTSP server is limited to use URL's no longer than 3000 bytes. 5.20:L05 When a meta-data stream is started the second time there might be old images in the first burst. 5.20:L06 In the webpage for setting root password the link to the helpage doesn't work. 5.20:L07 WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) is not mentioned in the help pages. 5.20:L08 Multicast for ipv6 will only work if ipv4 is enabled. 5.20:L09 Sometimes camera takes long time to switch between black and white color. Workaround: set NoiseColorReduction to 0. 5.20:L10 The bitrate modifier just shows 0 in every snapshot taken with H.264 video format in live view.
