FIRMWARE RELEASE NOTES ====================== Products affected: AXIS M3011 Network Camera Release date: 2011-03-02 Release type: Production Firmware version: 5.21 File name: M3011_5_21.bin Preceding release: 5.01.1 AMC version: 5.9.10.0-1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS ==================== The firmware can be upgraded using Axis Camera Management 2.0, HTTP or FTP. Please follow the instructions from the user's manual, the web page at http://www.axis.com/techsup/cam_servers/how_to_upgrade.htm or the file named howtoupgrade.txt. RELEASE 5.21 ============ New features ============ 5.21:F01 Added embedded AVHS (Axis Video Hosting System) client. 5.21:F02 Added ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) support including metadata streaming over RTSP/RTP. This includes streaming of event data, PTZ position and status data, and analytics data. Dynamic web services discovery protocol as specified in ONVIF standard, which follows WS-Discovery definitions (remote discovery will not be supported), is also included. 5.21:F03 Added support for 802.1x. 5.21:F04 Functionality has been added making it possible for customer to upload a customer logotype in the live view webpage. Corrections =========== 5.21:C01 It is possible now to see rotated image at the Motion detection and exposure settings page. Known limitations ================= 5.21:L01 The effect of backlight compensation on/off may not be noticable. 5.21:L02 Stream profile names are limited to alphanumerical characters. 5.21:L03 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. 5.21:L04 The NTP implementation will not synchronize to NTP servers that signal an alarm condition (clock not synchronized) in its Leap Indicator. 5.21:L05 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. 5.21:L06 It is not supported to configure always multicast RTP. 5.21:L07 If three different types of MPEG streams are running concurrently (e.g. with different resolutions), it will not be possible to start a fourth type of stream. This could prevent an upload or recording event from running. 5.21:L08 The event combination option "Include pre-trigger buffer" and "Upload as long as the trigger is active" does not work together, only the pre-buffer is saved/uploaded. Workaround: Use post buffer as well. 5.21:L09 When an event or event server is added, modified or deleted all running events will be stopped and restarted. 5.21:L10 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. 5.21:L11 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. 5.21:L12 Text Overlay supports the ISO 8859-1 character set but the character ÿ is not visible in the text overlay. 5.21:L13 Sometimes camera takes long time to switch between black and white color. Workaround: set NoiseColorReduction to 0. 5.21:L14 Status LED donot flash after One-click. Workaround: Refresh liveview webpage or restart AMC stream.
