Corrections since 5.40.6
========================

5.40.6:C1 Fixed H.264 video quality issue.

Known Bug/Limitations
=====================

5.40.5:L1 Using motion detection or tampering and at the same time 
requesting a quad stream may cause the unit to restart.

5.40.5:L20 When using the H.264 rate controller with a low GOV length 
(e.g. 3) you can get disrupted video. Use GOV length > 10.

5.40.5:L3 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 that point and the user has to manually remove recordings.

5.40.5:L4 Using modifiers like %c in a network share upload event does not
work.

5.40.5:L5 Multiple simultaneous recordings to SD cards and network shares
can degrade the performance of the system.
