4.1.0.30800 Video Management System
PUBLISHED 14 Apr 2020

Release Notes:

  • NEW FEATURES
    • Push Notifications (requires mobile client v20.1 or later):
      • Rules can be created in VMS to send Push Notifications to mobile devices.
      • Users can receive push notifications from multiple systems and turn on/off notifications for specific systems.
      • In order to receive Push Notifications, users must be logged in to the Cloud through their mobile applications.

      • Detailed System Info.
      • Cameras (online/offline state, resolution, fps, quality, firmware version etc),
      • Servers(storage detailed state, CPU usage, NICs state, hardware spec etc),
      • Clients connected to servers.
    • New Embedded Browser - Desktop Client now uses embedded Chromium browser (v.65.0.3325.230) to display web pages on layouts.
      • Download Files on Web-Page - Desktop Client now supports file downloading via embedded Chromium browser.
    • Video Wall Failover - If a server with video wall licenses fails, the video wall continues working for 7 days. After that, it will be blocked with the error message "Not enough licenses".
    • Cameras Web Page in "Camera settings" - Web Page can be opened up for all camera vendors so users can configure/access camera web pages even from outside the network. Server acts like an HTTP(s) proxy from cameras to Desktop Clients.
  • PLUGIN / METADATA SDK ENABLED FEATURES
    • Analytics Events Region of Interest (ROI):
      • Now it is possible to enable configuration of 3rd party video analytics and draw lines, boxes, polygons and more from the software (no need to go to the camera web page).

    • Best Server Selection (while connecting to the cloud multi-server system):
      • Previously, Desktop Client was trying to connect to a random available server via Cloud. Now it tries to connect to the server with the best uplink.
      • Added the ability to choose a specific server to connect to. Desktop Client tries to connect to the favorite server first and if it's not reachable, tries to connect to another one.
    • 2-way Audio API - Allows third-party web clients to send audio (from client microphone) to and get audio from cameras.
    • Added Time Zone option for virtual cameras - Time Zone can now be specified for virtual cameras. If "Time Zone" is set to "Auto", then the time zone is defined by metadata or UTC if there's no time zone specified in the file. If set to "Client", the Time Zone is defined by the desktop client.
    • Server Side Motion Detection improved - False positives detection like turning on/off lights or switching camera day/night mode are now ignored.

    • Database backups are now divided by groups: created after system merge, after update, via API and scheduled database backup.
    • "Camera selection" dialog was optimized for a large systems

    • We support only camera web-pages that work in Chrome.
    • Health monitoring. All metrics and alerts including aggregated alerts are erased after the server has been restarted.
    • Linux Server fails to record analytics metadata to NTFS drives.
    • When primary and secondary streams have different codecs the default export with some gaps in primary stream could end up in the non-playable video.As a workaround for this problem, the video should be exported using transcoding or as a multi-video (nov file/executable).
    • Push notifications. Sometimes there are no thumbnails in Push Notifications when the associated camera is not recording.

In-Client Upgrade:

Build Number: 30800
Password: lt4l4z

Download Links:

4.0.0.29641 Video Management System
PUBLISHED 27 Aug 2019

Release Notes:

  • IMPORTANT:
    • In-client update from previous beta doesn’t work.
    • To enable some new features it is necessary to remove desktop_client.ini file on all computers running Client:
      • on Windows: c:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\nx_ini\desktop_client.ini
      • on Linux: /home/<user>/nx_ini/desktop_client.ini
    • Before installing the new version, please remove the old analytics data and old analytics plugins (including stub_analytics_plugin) if you used it. They are not compatible with the current release. The location of the analytics data can be found in Server Settings -> Storage Management. You need to remove the objects_detection.sqlite DB and archive/metadata folder from there.
  • The analytics plugins normally reside here on Windows: %mediaserver_dir%/plugins/ and %mediaserver_dir%/plugins_optional/. On Linux they can be found in $mediaserver_dir/bin/plugins/ and $mediaserver_dir/bin/plugins_optional/.
