Known Bugs/Limitations
======================

5.41.2:L01  Limiting the bandwith to lower than 100kbit/s may lead to
            losing contact with the camera.

5.41.2:L02  An uploaded bitmap overlay is made partially transparent
            unconditionally (black color).

5.41.2:L03  Maximum brightness will not result in a white image.

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

5.41.2:L05  Stream profile names are limited to alphanumerical characters.

5.41.2:L06  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.

5.41.2:L07  Using ONVIF, the camera declares that is supports the Normalized
            Digital Zoom spaces but the camera does not and should not support
            those spaces.

5.41.2:L08  The ONVIF command 'gotoHomePosition' will go to the home position at a
            very slow speed, it will not use the default speed.

5.41.2:L09  If PTZ limits are changed the camera must be restarted for the changes
            to be applied to the ONVIF API.

5.41.2:L10  If a Go to Preset movement includes an AutoFlip, the image will
            freeze during the whole movement. When the movement is done, the stream
            will start again. Movement will also be done at full speed, regardles
            of the current speed configuration.

5.41.2:L11  Automatic IR Cut Filter will not work if Auto Iris is off.

5.41.2:L12  When the automatic IR cut filter enables/disables the IR cut filter,
            it may trigger motion detection.

5.41.2:L13  Removing a Guard Tour while another Guard Tour is running will stop
            and restart the ongoing Guard Tour.

5.41.2:L14  Pan/tilt coordinate directions presented in the text overlay (#x #y)
            will not be rotated along with the image when rotation is 180.

5.41.2:L15  The image is always showed with zero rotation at the OSDI Zone Setup.

5.41.2:L16  Recording streams to SD Card with a total bit rate above
            12Mbit/sec may cause missing frames/sequences.

5.41.2:L17  If a customer is trying to upload a very large file instead of a
            valid language file, a "404 page cannot be displayed" page is
            shown.

5.41.2:L18  If no Home Position is set, the camera will point straight down after
            booting.

5.41.2:L19  The 60Hz model has few pixels wide black column at the side of the
            image.

5.41.2:L20  Zoom response is very slow when using the mouse scroll wheel in AMC.

5.41.2:L21  Pan/tilt/zoom control does not work using Java Applet if the Control
            Queue is enabled.

5.41.2:L22  Firefox can sometimes show white image flicker at the bottom of the
            video stream. This occurs on Windows XP and Windows Vista with Firefox
            versions 3.6.3-3.6.6 (possibly on later versions aswell).

5.41.2:L23  When the camera is in RFL-mode (after a failed upgrade), flash
            loading it with Firefox may sometimes not work. Use Internet
            Explorer instead.

5.41.2:L24  Color parameter has no effect when pulling RTSP stream with color=0.

5.41.2:L25  Frame Size Control does not affect size of the snapshot taken with the upper
            right control that can be added to the Live View.

5.41.2:L26  Constant bit rate might fluctuate more than 10%.

5.41.2:L27  Events triggered at the same time, will by default settings share the same
            filename. This may result in upload of corrupted image.

5.41.2:L28  It is recommended to unmount the SD Card before ejecting it.

5.41.2:L29  Recordings made on the SD Card with firmware version earlier than 5.20
            will not be readable from the 5.40 firmware. Backup important recordings and
            reformat the SD Card after firmware upgrade.

5.41.2:L30  Check and repair is only available if the file system is ext4.

5.41.2:L31  When using action rule resulting in short recordings, it is recommended
            to extend post-event time.

5.41.2:L32  Date modifiers "%m-%d-%Y" are not formatted correctly when used
            with folder name, SMTP subject and message.
