Bosch supported Web Browsers.
- Firefox.
- Microsoft Edge (not including IE extension).
- Google Chrome
All of the above Bosch supported web browsers do not use MPEG-ActiveX so all of the functionality that requires ActiveX will not be possible within these browser interfaces.
Configuration Manager is now the best tool for configuring VCA/IVA and some of the other items that required ActiveX.
Internet Explorer (IE) and MPEG-ActiveXSupport by Camera Platform.
- RTOS will continue supporting IE/ActiveX.
- But because Microsoft has ended support on June 15, 2022.
- Bosch cannot guarantee that they will continue fixing issues with a browser that is not supported by Microsoft.
- Android and Linux never supported IE.
- Bosch does not recommend using IE or the IE extension within Microsoft Edge.
- The functionality of IE cannot be relied on, because Bosch is not supporting its functionality.
- Some cameras do not function any longer on IE with the latest FW.
- This trend will continue as Bosch continues to make improvements to their cameras and firmware.

For missing time and date.
