• A new recording option (See 7.4) to record continuously, but cut (create a new movie
file) each time the motion sensor is triggered
• A new Web server option to List only clips from enabled cameras (See 8.). This was
previously the default mode of operation, but you may now disable this functionality.
2.55
• The Motion Detector (See 7.3) algorithms have been overhauled and enhanced. A
quantization algorithm is first applied which has an inherent de-noise effect. A
persistence algorithm is employed to provide for more accurate background
separation. Finally blob detection algorithm may be enabled which attempts to locate a
rectangular region of interest. With the "overlay motion" test option enabled, you will
see this represented as a red rectangle. This will form the basis for advanced motion-
tracking.
• The MIME type for the ActiveX video streams has been changed from
application/streamingmedia to video/mpeg. It was discovered that the former MIME
type caused the stream to be subject to scanning by antivirus "web shield" software,
adding significant buffering and stream delays. As a reminder, you should add
blueiris.exe to exclusion and "trusted process" lists in these types of packages whenever
possible in order to achieve maximum performance. Also add the New and Storage
folders to your "file system shield" exclusion lists. Also add the MIME type
application/sdp to your "web shield" exclusion list if you are streaming from any RTSP
network cameras.
• Video latency and audio sync issues have been addressed with use of the ActiveX
control. You should be able to open a browser on your Blue Iris PC or LAN to the
default.htm page and receive no dropped frames when viewing a single camera. If you
do, you may have a network/web scanning issue as noted above.
2.54
• A new option on a camera's PTZ (See 7.9) tab allows you to automatically cycle through
a camera's preset positions during specific scheduled times
• A new option on a camera's Schedule (See 7.8) tab will disable live video and webcasting
while the camera is inactive
• Following a watchdog network reconnection attempt, the camera image will become
blue to indicate a loss of signal
• The web server now properly handles absolute URI requests (which may assist with
proxy server support)
• The ActiveX control has been updated to 1.0.1.5 in order to properly handle "chunked"
HTTP transfer-encoding, again for proxy support
