02/21/2025 – SOC ver 0.0.58
New Features and Bug Fixes
- Enhanced Tracking Algorithm: Improved the overall tracking algorithm for better accuracy and performance.
- Reorganized Audio Section: Organized the audio section for improved usability.
- Improved network security. “Guest Login” is disabled by default and can be enabled on the System Settings page.
- Implemented “HTTP Authentication”: Added Digest Authentication to protect API routes enabled by default.
- Removed the ability to change the Focus parameters when logged in as a Guest user.
- Removed OSD access in the web interface when logged in as a Guest user.
- Resolved an issue where the Iris would not fully close in Manual Exposure mode when set to “Close.”
- Resolved an issue on Move 4K models where the stop command was not properly triggered when using serial control (RS-232 or RS-485). This caused the camera to continue moving to its limit after releasing the joystick.
Known Issues
- NDI video may freeze when simultaneously connected via USB for video. This issue occurs when the camera streams NDI while the USB is connected to another device.
- Guest Access Focus Controls: Focus controls are currently missing from the Guest Access login.
- When RTMP streaming to YouTube using camera video templates, bitrate errors may occur. Resolution: Adjusting the camera’s video settings to align with YouTube’s video requirements will improve streaming stability and functionality.
- The NTP service address cannot be set within the 100 subnet (e.g., 192.168.100.10) through the web interface. This can be modified by using the HTTP API (/cgi-bin/param.cgi?post_network_other_conf&net_addr=[VALUE]) and sending the appropriate server address.
