RELEASE 5.06
============

5.06 is the first official release for the AXIS Q6032-E.

Known limitations
=================

5.06:L01 In PAL version a black vertical line, several pixels wide, is visible
         at the right edge of the image. It is not possible to remove with
         the X offset parameter.

5.06:L02 Maximum brightness will not result in a white image.

5.06:L03 Auto tracking might be confused when the IR filter is turn on/off

5.06:L04 No more that 4 privacy masks can be placed so close together that
         they are in the same view at any given time.

5.06:L05 Pan/tilt coordinate directions presented in the text overlay (#x #y)
         will not be rotated along with the image when rotation is 180.

5.06:L06 The image is always showed with zero rotation at the Motion Detection.

5.06:L07 Stream profile names are limited to alphanumerical characters.

5.06:L08 If IPv6 is enabled while IPv4 is disabled, the DHCP options received 
         from IPv4 are not removed. Also there is no IPv6 address in the mail 
         body of an SMTP test mail.

5.06:L09 The NTP implementation will not synchronize to NTP servers that
         signal an alarm condition (clock not synchronized) in its Leap
         Indicator.

5.06:L10 After changing the date/time of the camera, the video stream will 
         stop after 60 seconds with an RTSP session time out. It does not 
         matter if the media stream is started before or after the time is 
         changed.
         Workaround: Reboot the camera after the time has been changed 
         manually or by NTP.

5.06:L11 It is not supported to configure always multicast RTP.

5.06:L12 When an event or event server is added, modified or deleted all 
         running events will be stopped and restarted.

5.06:L13 There is no boundary check when entering a motion detection window
         name. If the name is more than 1024 charachters long, the parhand
         application may restart.

5.06:L14 If RTSP authentication is switched off, streaming H.264 with QuickTime
         and other Apple compatible clients will not work as they require 
         authentication of the RTSP, but do not allow HTTP authentication.

5.06:L15 The AXIS Media Control client may stop displaying the H.264 video 
         stream after the PC has been locked.
         Workaround: Reload the Live View page.

5.06:L16 Daylight saving time does not work for Iran.

5.06:L17 Bitmap images have more contrast than the corresponding JPEG images.

5.06:L18 Not possible to perform JPEG/BMP requests with aspect ratio
         resolutions.
