Wait for download to finish. 5.20.1:L06 After first registration of the camera to http://www.axiscam.net, some critical errors can be seen in the log and LED will flash, however the updates are working fine.

Sensor capture mode affects the available resolutions and changing it in real time requires other resolution related configuration changes on the camera and possibly a recording software. For example, if a resolution that is not available for one capture mode is requested, the reply will be "bad request". 5.20.1:L13 To get smoother H.264 video in Live view in 3MP and HDTV highest resolution, it might be necessary to disable both "Advanced video rendering" and "Enable overlays" in the Control Panel>AXIS Media Control. 5.20.1:L14 Stream Profiles are not associated with any particular View area.

The View area is not saved with the Stream Profile. 5.20.1:L15 Two view areas can not have guard tours with the same name. 5.20.1:L16 A big overlay image cannot be uploaded to the camera using Internet Explorer.
