Known Bugs/Limitations
======================

5.51.5:L01
To be able to use all parts of the image in a View Area use the 4:3 Aspect Ratio
for the View Area.

5.51.5:L02
Recording streams to SD Card with a total bit rate above 12Mbit/sec may cause
missing frames/sequences.

5.51.5:L03
90 and 270 rotation can cause a drop in frame rate.

5.51.5:L04
To avoid corrupt recordings, it is recommended to unmount the SD Card before
ejecting it.

5.51.5:L05
Private keys need to be in a PKCS#1 format in order to function when installing
Certificates.

5.51.5:L06
Using control queue with Java Applet may result in wrong queue positions if
switching between admin and viewer users.

5.51.5:L07
The ipv6.class field will have the same value in all IPv6 packages. The class
field value depends on the value of the DSCP setting.

5.51.5:L08
Time modifiers used in the field "Create folder" is only used upon activation of
the rule, hence no new folders are created with the current time during an
active rule.

To have new folders created with time modifiers you should add them in the
"Base filename".

5.51.5:L09
Custom Exposure windows is not visible in Chrome and Firefox. Please use
Internet Explorer.

5.51.5:L10
Longer connection disruptions towards the Network storage during playback of a
recording from the Network storage may affect the possibilities to setup new
video streaming also some time after reconnection.
Ongoing live streaming will not be affected.

5.51.5:L11
To be able to seek in exported mkv recordings you need to use
AXIS Matroska File Splitter, see axis.com. Files are playable both with and
without AXIS Matroska File Splitter.

5.51.5:L12
SNMP OID that have been set are not kept after reboot.

5.51.5:L13
Once "Custom" Exposure Windows is chosen within the Java Exposure applet the
browser login window keeps asking for credentials until you use root as login
credentials.

5.51.5:L14
A combination of a high bandwidth continuous recording and a lot of small
recordings can result in disc full. The automatic clean up will stop at the
point and the user have to manually remove recordings.

5.51.5:L15
Number of different configured video streams is limited by hardware.

5.51.5:L16
I/O triggers need to be at least one second long for the device to accept the
trigger. The minimum signal detection value can be changed in Plain Config for
legacy support.

5.51.5:L17
When using a rotated overlay (90 or 270 degrees) and a large overlay text size
simultaneously, the maximum allowed size of an overlay image is reduced to
about 12 kB.

5.51.5:L18
The recordings database is not backwards compatible. A reformat of the SD-card
is needed when installing older firmware. A reformat is also recommended when
moving a SD-card from one camera to another.
