FIRMWARE RELEASE NOTE ===================== Products affected: AXIS Q3505 Mk II Release date: 2017-10-24 Release type: Production Firmware version: 7.35.1 File name: q3505-mkii_7_35_1.bin Preceding release: 6.25.2.6 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Upgrade instructions ==================== Upgrade the firmware with AXIS Camera Management, HTTP, or FTP. Follow the instructions given in the User Manual, at http://www.axis.com/support/tecnical-notes/how-to-upgrade, or howtoupgrade.txt, which is included in the firmware folder. New features in 7.35.1 ================================================================================ 7.35.1:F1 Added ONVIF GetVideoEncoderConfigurationOptions extension. This makes it possible for an ONVIF client to get e.g. the bitrate range of the camera. 7.35.1:F2 It is now possible to specify image rotation via ONVIF video source configuration 7.35.1:F3 The FTP Server is now disabled by default as it is not used during normal operation and may pose a security risk.The FTP Server may be enabled during advanced maintenance or troubleshooting in Settings -> System -> PlainConfig -> Network. 7.35.1:F4 Support for LLDP neighbor announcements. Products announce themselves now in the network via LLDP protocol. 7.35.1:F5 The functionality of enabling Axis DNS Service via control button has been disabled by default. It can be enabled again using VAPIX. 7.35.1:F6 Support for AXIS Audio Streaming Capabilities API for better handling of product supported audio streaming settings. The API allows a client to request all the product supported audio stream settings and its combinations e.g. audio codecs, sample and bit rates as well as channels. 7.35.1:F7 The ARP/Ping method to set the products ip-address has been removed in order to increase minimum cyber security standards. 7.35.1:F8 Changed the default web server authentication from Basic & Digest to Digest only. 7.35.1:F9 Upon a factory default, the camera will generate a self-signed certificate at boot and enable HTTPS. This allows clients to use encrypted access from start. If HTTPS is to be used in daily operations, it is recommended to replace the generated self-signed certificate with a CA-signed certificate. 7.35.1:F10 The Axis On Screen Crontrols add-on makes it possible for Axis Camera Station (ACS) or a VMS to get information about various features of the camera. This information is available through a JSON API via a CGI. 7.35.1:F11 Support for 24bit LPCM audio mode. 7.35.1:F12 OpenSSL has been updated to version 1.0.2k to increase overall minimum cyber security level. 7.35.1:F13 The former user group selections for HTTPS Connection Policy (administrator, operator, viewer) have been merged to one single HTTPS Connection Policy. 7.35.1:F14 Support for AXIS SD card health API. The SD card health API allows a client to track and request the health and wear-out state of an camera with AXIS Surveillance SD Card. 7.35.1:F15 Support for SRTP (Encrypted Video Streaming) according to RFC 3711. The cameras video stream can be received via secure end-to-end encrypted transportation method only by authorized clients. 7.35.1:F16 Support for Adaptive Resolution. Adaptive Resolution is enabled per default and takes only effect when viewing live stream in the web-interface. The viewing client will receive a image resolution that is adapted or close to the viewing clients real display resolution to higher the user experience. 7.35.1:F17 If Network Share is setup to use DNS host name as host and if the IP address changes after mount, the host name is resolved to current IP address. 7.35.1:F18 Added support for ONVIF standardised I/O events. 7.35.1:F19 Support for recordings with G711 ยต-law audio encoding. 7.35.1:F20 Improved handling of EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization) during pan and tilt movements. 7.35.1:F21 The camera can be set to perform re-calibration and go to previously set focus position by usage of the parameter "Shock triggered lens calibration" available under System Options>Advanced>Plain Config>ImageSource. Shock detection needs to be enabled and level adjusted for optimal triggering. This can be useful in environments with extensive vibrations. 7.35.1:F22 Autofocus shall only be run during manual zooming in live zoom for monitoring mode. All other functionalities such as presets, focus window usage, Zoom for installation etc. shall remain the same. 7.35.1:F23 Corrected behavior for conditional triggers. 7.35.1:F24 Improved Zipstream using dynamic frame rate. 7.35.1:F25 Support for ONVIF Profile G. Features in 6.25.2.6 ================================================================================ Corrections in 7.35.1 ================================================================================ 7.35.1:C1 Corrected handling of #D text overlay, it's no longer needed to specify the camera source. 7.35.1:C2 Improvements in session ID handling for rtsp streaming. Useful when streaming in some video clients. 7.35.1:C3 Fixed an issue that caused the product to stop streaming when TUN/TAP interfaces are enabled and MJPEG is accessed over P2P connections such as a VPN. 7.35.1:C4 Added link local IPV6 support for NTP. 7.35.1:C5 Improved HTTP image upload stability in unstable networks. 7.35.1:C6 Corrected Turkey/Istanbul timezone from GMT+2 to GMT+3. 7.35.1:C7 Improved camera stability when metadata is used. 7.35.1:C8 Corrected an issue that prevented the user from saving a action rule with a Email Recipient that had SSL enabled. 7.35.1:C9 Running http://ip /incl/bw to get to know the network bandwidth does require login credentials now. Improved Cyber Security. 7.35.1:C10 Corrected a bug that denied the access to the camera when AXIS Companion / Remote Access is used when web server connection policy was set to "HTTPS only". 7.35.1:C11 Corrected a bug that let the camera send corrupted XML data packages within a stream which caused a VMS (e.g. ACS) to not record video motion detection coming from the camera. Mostly happens during initial boot-up after production and can be solved by a flash_all or via this correction. 7.35.1:C12 Corrected Content-Type in pwdgrp.cgi response. 7.35.1:C13 Improved camera stability when TriggerData is used. 7.35.1:C14 Corrected an issue in the event system that prevented the camera from re-sending the SMTP notification every 10 seconds in case the receiving server reported an error. 7.35.1:C15 Corrected a issue resulting in 503 Service Unavailable when trying to play a recording from a camera with a specific time range via ONVIF. 7.35.1:C16 Corrected an issue with an additional sign / in the absolute upload path of an SFTP Recipient when saving the action rule causing it to not work correctly. 7.35.1:C17 Corrected an issue when an ONVIF client connected to the camera via digest authentication. 7.35.1:C18 Corrected possibility to include SPS (Sequence Parameter Set) and PPS (Picture Parameter Set) in the stream according to ACAP documentation. 7.35.1:C19 Fixed issues with stopped events for manually triggered recording. 7.35.1:C20 Optimized Network Share polling frequency. 7.35.1:C21 Improved stability in actionengine (tcp notification). 7.35.1:C22 Improved camera stability when recording via ONVIF profile G. Corrections in 6.25.2.6 ================================================================================ Known Bugs/Limitations ================================================================================ 7.35.1:L1 Recording streams to SD Card with total bit rate above 12Mbit/sec may cause missing frames/sequences. 7.35.1:L2 It is recommended to perform a factory default after downgrading the cameras firmware if needed. 7.35.1:L3 No audio support when viewing MJPEG video streams directly in the web-interface. However, a recorded video MJPEG video stream from the cameras storage can be played with audio using a 3rd party client e.g. Microsoft Windows Media Player. 7.35.1:L4 Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) and Barrell Distortion Correction (BDC) cannot be used at the same time even though the web-interface may not reflect precisely. 7.35.1:L5 Videos recorded using the video capture feature in live view may not be playable or might get stuck in some media players. This was seen e.g. with Windows Media Player. 7.35.1:L6 Updated Apache web server to 2.4.27 to improve overall minimum cyber security standards. 7.35.1:L7 An overlay text (e.g. date/time modifier) that has been configured in the classic web-interface will be still shown in the new web-interface even though a user might have disabled the overlay text there after firmware update. A user need to disable the overlay text first in the classic web-interface using http ://ip-address/index.shtml. 7.35.1:L8 View areas need to be recreated after upgrade from 6.25 firmware.
