Possible causes and solution(s)   Symptoms   By extracting the playback in the MOV or MP4 format using BVMS Operator Client, the video is split into multiple files and not in a single file/ segment. This behavior became visible after upgrading BVMS to version 11.1.1.65.   Causes   Upon investigation, it has been observed that export files are being split when there are changes in the recorded stream parameters. This typically occurs when recording is configured for alarm scenarios, and an active alarm changes the stream parameters, such as frame rate or resolution. The current behavior, observed in BVMS 11.1.1 has slightly changed, due to the changes in the export mechanism, implemented with BVMS 10.0.1.  Prior to BVMS 10.0.1, during the export process to the ASF format video was always transcoded (decoded and encoded back using the specific export engine). Due to this fact, it was possible to maintain continuity of the output file when only frame rate was changing. However, if also video resolution would be changing, even previous ASF implementation would lead to creation of separate files.   Solution   With BVMS 10.0.1, ASF export was replaced with MP4 format and internal exporting mechanism was changed as well. Currently, exporting doesn’t require transcoding anymore, resulting in optimization and reduced export time. However, as a side effect, when frame rate is changing, single output file continuity cannot be guaranteed anymore. BVMS provides additional means to allow easy handling of the export material even if multiple files are created. A playlist file is also provided as part of the export, so typically opening it in the external player does not require additional effort. Moreover, all the exported files can be compressed to a single ZIP file. However, understanding the usage of the MP4 export files and additional effort when it is needed to upload these files to an external system, we would like to consider this requirement and improve it in future BVMS releases. ...

If you want to disable the digital zoom or to limit the maximum zoom-in of the AUTODOME IP starlight 5100i IR camera, you can do that by using the AUX Command 80 (OFF).   Step-by-step guide   1. Open a browser and type in the IP address of your camera 2. Login with its credentials 3. By zooming in the camera's image, you will notice that at some point the Digital Zoom will become active. Depending on the place where the camera is installed, the image can become unstable/ unclear by using the digital zoom. Digital Zoom Active default maximum to (12.0 X):   4. To limit the maximum zoom-in of the AUTODOME IP starlight 5100i IR camera, you can disable the digital zoom by using AUX Command 80 (OFF):   Therefore, with the Digital Zoom disabled, the image will be zoomed-out on the limit of Digital Zoom and will become more stable and clear. Digital Zoom disabled - add AUX command (80 – OFF):   Zoom Out Maximum:   Nice to know: Check the Operation Manual (page 73) to find more AUX commands that might be useful for you. ... View more

Question   Which device is required for testing Bosch Glassbreak detectors?   Answer   Glassbreak detectors are designed to listen for specific sounds from breaking glass. The device used for testing must generate the proper sounds for the glassbreak to generate an alarm. If the correct tester is not used, an alarm will not be generated. When testing the DS1101i/1102i/1108i Glass Breakage Detectors: Use the DS1110i Glass Breakage Tester. See section 4 of the DS1101i/1102i/1108i Glass Breakage Detectors Installation Manual for testing instructions. When testing the Radion RFGB-A glassbreak: Use the Sentrol 5709C hand-held tester. See section 5.2, pg28 of the Radion B810 Receiver Reference Guide for testing instructions. ... View more
