1. Introduction
DVTel is proud to present Latitude 6.2 SP1, a feature-rich service pack for the latest major release of
DVTel’s award winning Network Video Management System, and the software platform for DVTel's
Video Surveillance Solutions.
Latitude 6.2 SP1 offers important additions and exciting improvements to the Latitude platform,
including support for many new video edge device models, features to maximize utilization of high
resolution cameras and many additional usability features, across the board.
Make the most out of your high resolution cameras:


Using the new Digital PTZ presets feature, users can digitally zoom into any region of interest within
their camera field of view, save it as a preset, and later quick-access it just like they can do with
regular PTZ cameras. With this new feature, users can start using the pixels offered by cameras to
the full potential!
View high resolution cameras even over the internet or limited bandwidth connections using the
improved Transcoder. The new improvements allow the Transcoder to work side by side with other
services while moderating the CPU consumption, and include a CPU-Saver mode, supporting a
higher number of Transcoding requests, by gracefully degrading the output frame rate
Improving TruWitness - the new concept of video capturing. With an Android Smartphone, users can
not only stream video from a mobile video camera to Latitude, but also tag their video clips.
As in every Latitude version, this release continues to extend support for new 3rd party edge device
models as well as integrate new DVTel edge device, and improve the user experience through many
system and feature enhancements.
Read below to learn more about the latest and greatest in Latitude 6.2 SP1

2. New Features in SP1
2.1 Digital Zoom Presets
Make the most out of your High Resolution Cameras
HD cameras and Megapixel cameras are rapidly becoming the common choice for an IP video
surveillance system. Thanks to their high resolution, they capture many details that can be very useful,
and this feature makes it easier to do that!
Similar to the way users can define presets for PTZ cameras, they can now do it with any camera, by
using the existing digital zoom functionality to zoom-in on any region of interest in the image, and then
set that digital zoom position as a preset. It is also possible save the digital zoom position in a tile as part
of a layout.
The digital zoom presets can be accessed manually by the operator, in live and archive playback, and
they can also be configured for automatic display in camera sequences and actions. With Digital zoom
presets, monitoring a camera is much more than simply looking at its full field of view. The difference is
in the details.
8
2.2 Transcoder CPU-Saver mode
Transcoding more cameras while moderating CPU consumption
In version 6.2 the Administrator can limit the CPU resources consumed by the Transcoder, when it
becomes overloaded. By default, a new configurable parameter permits additional transcoding requests
as long as the total CPU level doesn’t cross the threshold. As an option, a new CPU-Saver mode
automatically knows to reduce the Transcoding CPU pressure, by Transcoding only the key-frame of the
requested scene. This means that normal (full-fledged) Transcoding will continue as long as the total
CPU level is under the CPU-Saver configurable threshold, but when the CPU level crosses the threshold,
some of the scenes will be degraded to CPU-Saver mode. While CPU-Saver mode usually provides 1fps
or 1 frame every few seconds, it protects the machine from exhausting the CPU resources, and allows
users to view more cameras concurrently, on the same hardware. The configuration of this feature can
be done in AdminCenter, in the General tab of the Transcoder server, under Global Performance Limits.
2.3 TruWitness with video tagging
Increasing the system’s video coverage using Personal IP Cameras
The TruWitness device users can now add text-tagging to each video clip that they have been
transmitting to Latitude. As soon as the transmission is over and the user is trying to exit the TruWitness
App he will be offered to enter a descriptive text, which will become a bookmark in Latitude and can
later facilitate searching for that piece of footage, as well as add some important information, for
Forensic purposes.
9
2.4 Redundant Recording extended support
Easier to specify and use, with fewer pre-requisites
Redundant recording now covers all cameras and encoders supporting multicast streaming, and all the
recording triggers/reasons.
In previous versions, there was no support for manual recording on Redundant Archivers, but this is
supported since Latitude 6.2 SP1, and now we can say that redundant recording is fully mirroring the
primary recording. Whatever the reason is for recording on the Primary Archiver, it would be recorded
on the Redundant Archiver as well.
In previous versions, some camera models did not support redundant recording, due to “out-of-band”
streaming implementation (by the camera vendors). The new redundancy mechanism in Latitude 6.2
overcomes this limitation, and now the only pre-requisite for redundancy remains multicast support.
2.5 Thin Web Client Extended support
Use the Web client on Firefox to access live video from additional platforms
The popular thin web client can now be used on additional platforms, for live viewing. While version 6.2
supported only Internet Explorer on Windows client OS, SP1
supports live viewing with MJPEG-HTTP streaming (normally
requiring Transcoding).
This is available using the Mozilla Firefox web browser, version 8
and above, on the following platforms:





Mac OS (tested with Snow Leopard 10.6)
Linux OS (tested with Ubuntu 11.10)
Windows Server OS 2003, 2008
Windows Client OS without Video Hardware
Acceleration
VMware

2.6 Warning events on Storage Tampering attempts
Protect your sensitive video footage
Latitude 6.2 SP1 provides an important security measure, allowing administrators to receive real-time
alerts whenever the video storage is being tampered with. The new version provides an event that will
be triggered on any attempt to delete or edit recorded audio or video files in an Archiver’s storage
location. Those events can be configured to trigger an email alert or trigger any other existing type of
action that the administrator found useful as an alert.

2.7.4 ONVIF enhancements
The Latitude ONVIF support is enhanced, with the integration being more robust and tested against
many types of ONVIF edge devices. Latitude 6.2 SP1 is going to be certified as ONVIF Profile S
conformant – check the ONVIF web site for updates!
2.8 Clear ioimage analytics detection automatically
Enhanced usability for analytic-based monitoring centers
A new action type was added to Latitude 6.2 SP1, allowing administrators to configure rules for
automatic clearance of ioimage analytics events. A common use case is when ioimage analytics
detections trigger a Latitude Alarm, which brings the analytics detection to the operator’s awareness by
activating the Alarm and displaying the associated video in the Latitude ControlCenter application. With
the new action, the administrator can make sure that as soon as the operator clears the Latitude Alarm,
the system will send the ‘Clear Analytics command’ to the relevant ioimage device, thus streamlining the
operators work and allowing him to go quickly back to routine.
2.9 Prevent concurrent logins with the same user name
Control how end users connect to your system
This feature allows the system Administrator to define the login policy, as far as concurrent logins by the
same user. By default, the system allows the same user name to login from multiple applications
concurrently,
but
by
changing
the
relevant
setting
in
AdminCenter
(Under
GeneralAdvancedConcurrent login, “Prevent login of the same user more than once”), the
Administrator can change the default behavior and make sure that each user can only login from one
application at a time.
12
2.10 ControlCenter warning for high Virtual Memory consumption
Helping the end-user utilize memory resources to his benefit
The ControlCenter application is often used to display many video streams, and with the intensive use,
the virtual memory consumption can reach a limit and prevent the application from functioning
properly. This is especially relevant when running ControlCenter on 32bit Windows OS, where the virtual
memory limit (around 1.5GB) is lower than on 64bit OS (around 3.5GB). In version 6.2 SP1, a warning
message was added that alerts the user when the level of virtual memory gets close to the limit. This
warning, together with the memory consumption information on the application status bar, can help the
user make the most out of the existing resources while maintaining the application in a proper
functional state. Note: similar warnings are already available for a high CPU level as well as the ability to
configure a hard limit on the number of video tiles.
2.11 Using Microsoft .Net 4
Staying on the cutting edge of technology
Latitude 6.2 SP1 is built on top of Microsoft .Net 4, taking advantage of many its latest and greatest
improvements.
2.12 SDK Enhancements
Latitude 6.2 SP1 offers some important SDK/API improvements:



A new event type alerting that a PTZ camera has started moving
The installation includes “Safrun” watch-dog functionality for SDK applications
Additional API improvements (See SDK release notes for more details)
13
3. New Features in 6.2
3.1 Thin Web Client
A simple way to access video for casual users
The new web client is a simple and thin video monitoring application, intended to provide quick and
easy access to any user, by simply opening Microsoft Internet Explorer and typing the Latitude web
server URL.
The web client offers basic functionality and is easy to use. It supports live video monitoring, simple
search of recorded video for playback, and PTZ control.
The deployment of the web portal is simple and, depending on system configuration, is fully automatic.
It uses Windows IIS as the web server.
While professional security users and Control Room operators are still expected to require the fullfledged functionality of the ControlCenter application, there are many other users who will benefit from
the web client, most of which are casual users such as managers, employees who need to access video
from home, or random users, who need a onetime access to live or recoded video.
14
3.2 Transcoder Improvements
Allowing users to get better video from Latitude over limited connections

In addition to MJPEG that is already supported, the Transcoder can now be configured to output
H.264 or MPEG4 streams. This gives the system administrator more flexibility in selecting how to
utilize limited bandwidth connections for best results in remote video streaming.

The Transcoder output resolutions are now defined as 240p, 480p, 720p etc – utilizing popular
terminology for ease of use.

Additional parameters were added to the Transcoder page in AdminCenter, providing the
administrator better control over the utilization of the Transcoder.

The Transcoder is the video proxy to all web clients. This simplifies the network connectivity as well
as providing web clients the ability to select the quality of service they receive from the Transcoder
(Original quality with higher bandwidth or Transcoded quality with lower bandwidth).
15
3.3 Optimized Performance
Some optimizations were made to improve the user experience:

The client applications launch faster than in previous versions – helping create a more pleasant user
experience

Larger memory address space per process on 64bit OS, allowing 32bit application and processes
(e.g. CC, AC, Archiver, Transcoder) to use up to 3.5-4 GB of memory. This translates, in some cases,
to costs saving in HW requirements:

o
For ControlCenter users, it means being able to display many more video streams
concurrently
o
For Archivers, it means increasing the performance envelope, for example supporting a
higher number of concurrent playback sessions
Reduced baseline memory consumption per process (~50MB less) - overall smaller memory
footprint, important especially for server running many Latitude processes. This can help reducing
HW costs and allows the existing deployments to get more capacity from existing HW.
16
3.4 Edge Devices
Improved flexibility through extended model coverage and feature support
New additions to the DVTel EV series, part of the complete DVTel solution:


EV-208-A, EV-216-A – the multiport H.264 encoders now with audio support.
EV-401-D – another decoder for the EV series encoder family. This model comes with an HDMI
output
New models of 3rd edge devices and new features for already supported cameras:

Support new Panasonic models: SF332 / SF336 / SF335 / SP306 / SP302 / SP30

Support Bosch NDN-498

Axis dual scene support – allowing users to use the two streams separately, both streams can be
recorded in different profiles and different retention times for reducing long-term storage costs

Sony DH-120
3.5 Single Installation file for all OS types
A single installation file is now supporting both 32 bit Windows operating systems and 64 bit Windows
operating systems. The installation automatically identifies the OS type and installs the relevant files.
This was developed to improve the ease of installation and reduce potential confusion hurdles.
3.6 Client Applications Improved Usability
3.6.1 AdminCenter: A more flexible configuration of Motion Detection
AdminCenter now provides even more flexibility to the user, when configuring motion detection. The
new motion recording settings allow the user to easily and independently control the behavior of
motion based recording, motion based bookmarks, and motion based video profile boosting.
3.6.2 Ioimage Analytics – Clear analytics event from tile
Using ioimage cameras, the function Clearing Analytics events, which was previously only available from
the ControlCenter navigation tree, is now also available from the Live Video Tile of any ioimage camera,
via the context menu (Mouse right-click).
17
3.6.3 Prevent alarms from interrupting users
In previous versions, whenever an alarm was activated in ControlCenter, the alarm pane would
automatically pop up to the foreground to show the user that a new alarm has been added to the list.
Similarly, whenever an alarm tile popped-up automatically, it grabbed the tile focus (yellow rectangle) to
capture the user attention. This can be, in certain situations, an undesired behavior, interrupting the end
user during PTZ control operations, or playback control operations. In version 6.2, ControlCenter
provides means to alter these behaviors through configurable settings in the ToolsOptions menu.
3.6.4 Add "Active Monitors" configuration to CC Tools Options
The ControlCenter ToolsOptions menu now offers a way for the user to define which of the monitors,
connected to the workstation, are to be used by the ControlCenter application. This allows the end user
to leave specific monitors available for other applications.
3.6.5 Improved Email Action
Email actions allow the administrator to configure the system to send automatic email notifications
following the occurrence of specific types of events. In previous versions, the email notification included
only the name of the triggering event type, but from version 6.2 and on, any specific event description
text will also be included in the email, providing more meaningful information to the person receiving
the email and increasing situational awareness.
3.6.6 Active Directory - Import of Local and Universal groups
Previous versions of Latitude only supported integration with Active Directory Primary domains, because
the system queried Active Directory only for Global groups.
Version 6.2 now queries also for Local groups and International groups hence it supports working also
with Active Directory resource domains.
18
3.7 SDK Enhancements
Latitude 6.2 offers some important SDK/API improvements:

Multi User API - SDK users can now manage several users sessions via a single SDK application

New features added to Control Center API:
o
SDK applications can subscribe to selected event or double-clicked event triggered by the
ControlCenter Events pane.
o
SDK applications can add custom context-menu items, to be displayed upon right-click on a
ControlCenter tile.

New Transcoder API for streaming MJPEG over HTTP.

Optimized performance

o
SDK applications launch faster
o
Reduced baseline memory consumption per process

50
4.11.1 Upgrade Prerequisites
The following procedures must be fulfilled prior to upgrading to Latitude NVMS 6.2:
1. Make sure that the Installation folder created by the previous Latitude build is still in the folder
C:\Windows\Download Installations. If this directory was previously deleted for any reason, then
contact DVTEL Technical Support before carrying out the upgrade, so that the required information
can be replaced.
2. Port availability – The Latitude Installation process assumes that certain specific ports are available.
Please see the list of Default Latitude Port Settings. Should any of the listed ports not be available,
then your System Administrator should make suitable adjustments in consultation with DVTEL
Technical Support.
3. Make sure you have available license activations. Note that any upgrade from a previous version to
Latitude 6.2 will require a new license to be installed for every directory server in the system.
4. Make sure you have Internet access in order to activate and download the license file.
5. Perform a validation check on the Directory database.
6. Apply Windows updates. See Windows Updates.
CAUTION: To avoid improper or failed installation, assure that all Windows updates are run before
and not during the Latitude installation process.
7. Close Latitude clients and all unnecessary applications before running the upgrade.
Note:
The Latitude services must be stopped prior to applying windows updates.
For more information, see the Latitude NVMS Minimum Requirements document.
WARNING for SDK Users: “.net” version 4 is required for DVTel 6.2 SDK. Check that this was installed
with the SDK.
When planning to upgrade to the next version, you should consult the Expected Scenarios and Best
Practice. See Expected Scenarios and Best Practice.
4.11.1.1 Performing a Validation Check of the Directory Database
Before starting the upgrade procedure, a validation check of the directory database should be
performed.
1. Open Safrun.
From the main menu, select View — Directory.
The Directory dialog box appears.
2. Right-click the window and then select Send String.
The Send Text dialog box appears.
51
3. In the Send Text dialog box, enter *-ve, and then click Send.
Make sure the validation check ended with no invalid entities. If the validation check results show
invalid entities, contact DVTel Technical Support.
4.11.1.2 Backing up Existing Systems and Databases
The upgrade procedure includes an option to backup the databases. It is highly recommended to select
this option.
4.11.1.3 Pre-requisites for User Access Control Feature (for Windows Vista, Windows 7
and Windows Server 2008)
User Account Control (UAC) is a technology and security infrastructure introduced
with Microsoft's Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 operating systems. For more
information regarding this MS feature, refer to the relevant Microsoft documentation.
To install Latitude with the User Access Control (UAC) feature enabled:
Make sure to run the installation as an administrator (Right-Click Run as Administrator)
Note that files cannot be saved from the Latitude applications to UAC protected folders such as c:\ or
c:\windows. That is, it will be impossible to export files to such a folder. However, it will still be possible
to export files to the default export path (c:\export).
4.11.2 Expected Scenarios and Best Practice
Following are several expected scenarios and best practices while upgrading to Latitude 6.2.

In a multiple server deployment, it is advised to upgrade the Directory\EDB server first. This will
ensure that the Archiver(s) will continue to record while the server is offline during the upgrade.

A client who wants to see live or recorded video during the upgrade must log in to the system
before the upgrade begins. Once the upgrade has started and the Directory\EDB server is down, no
new client connections are possible. Furthermore, after the Directory\EDB server is back online, pre
upgrade version clients are unable to log in to the system until they have been upgraded to the
same version.

There will be an approximately 30 minute downtime per server. This downtime does not include
downloading software onto the servers or the backup of existing data. During the downtime, no
video will be recorded on the respective server, and none of the clients will be able to view live or
recorded video from the respective server.
4.11.3 Upgrading the Failover Directory
In order to upgrade a system with Failover directory, begin by upgrading your primary Directory server
(server 1).
52
While you are upgrading the primary Directory server (server 1), your secondary failover Directory
(server 2) becomes the primary Directory.
When the upgrade process of the primary Directory (server 1) is done you can start upgrading server 2.
Server 1 should then become the primary Directory again, automatically.
Note: if you have more than a single failover Directory server in your system, make sure that at the end
of the upgrade process (after upgrading the client machines), you verify that your desired server is the
primary one (Admin Center-- Servers view -- right-click the desired server and select ‘Become primary
directory’.
Note: The Failover Directory requires a license installation. See instructions under 4.13 Upgrade Follow
Up Procedures
4.12 Run Upgrade Procedure from a previous version

4.14 Silent Installer
The Silent Mode installer allows Latitude Client software to be installed locally or remotely without
operator intervention.
4.14.1 Installation Procedure
For fresh installs on Windows XP machines, ensure .net 3.5 is installed before running in silent mode.
(Prerequisites such as this can be handled via non-silent wizard installs with internet access).
Copy the installation exe file to a client accessible location (on the network or on the remote client
machine).
For non-automated command-line:
1.
2.
3.
Click Start  Run. (or open CMD)
Enter the command in the following syntax and press ENTER:
[path Latitude install file] /silent
For example:
“\\mysoftware-server\VideoManagementSWfolder\Latitude 6.2.exe” /silent
For automated scripts and IT tools:
Have the script with the shell command in proper syntax ([path\Latitude install file] /silent) run on the
remote client machine.

4.15 Required Microsoft Updates
4.15.1 Microsoft Time Zone Update
Make sure to install latest cumulative time-zone update for Microsoft Windows operating systems (from
December 2011), which is included with the installation. For more details, see:

Note:
From time to time, Microsoft updates the DST package. Therefore, you should make sure to download
the latest update package regardless of what is mentioned here.
The Latitude services must be stopped prior to applying windows update.
4.16 Quick Control Center – change of Process Name
A small change has been made to the process of running the Quick Control Center in Latitude 6.2.
The Quick Control Center is loaded by running the file QuickControlCenter.exe, which is in the Directory
DVTel\Tools\ThinApps. This in turn calls an application called Application.exe in the subfolder \Plugins.
The practical implication of this is that, should it be necessary to close the Quick Control Center
application manually, then the name listed in the Windows Process list is ‘Application.exe’.

4.17 Preventing Anti-Virus from Interfering with the Latitude System
This section is intended for users who wish to install Anti-Virus software on a computer(s) running the
DVTel Latitude system. Users should be aware that a variety of Anti-Virus software is available; they
should contact DVTel Support with questions concerning configuration prior to software installation.
This section assumes that the Latitude Software is installed to the default locations.
When configuring the Anti-Virus software




Disable the firewall included in the Anti-Virus software.
Configure rules to Real time scans and Scheduled scans.
Exclude the following locations for the client and server :
o The Latitude system folder (e.g. C:\Program Files\DVTel\)
o The Windows Paging file (C:\pagefile.sys)
Exclude the following locations for the server:
o The Microsoft SQL Database folder (e.g. C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\)
o The drives that your system is writing video to (e.g. Y:\Archive, Z:\Archive)
Important

A common mistake is to configure exclusions for Auto-Protect, and not exclude scheduled and
manual scans.
All types of scans that run on the server must be excluded, or there is a risk of data loss on the
server.

Another common mistake is to omit the paths to the folders that you need to exclude.
For example: you may exclude “C:\Program Files\DVTel\” when the actual installation path is
“E:\Program Files\DVTel\”.
Because the Latitude folder locations can be configured differently, the paths here are given with
the default installation path.

6. Edge Device integrations in 6.2 SP1
Latitude Version 6.2.1.11 includes all the edge devices that were supported in any previous Latitude
version.
Following is a list of the new edge devices added with this version and new features for supported edge
devices.
6.1 DVTel - Quasar
New Features
Dual Scene Support
It is now possible to record both video streams of the Quasar and HD Series cameras at the same time.
The feature is activated upon discovering the camera in Latitude by choosing “Create separate scene for
each encoder”. When choosing dual scene mode, two camera logical entities will be presented in the
logical tree for each unit. Each camera logical entity represents a video encoder of the unit, which can be
configured separately.
Picture Profile Enhancements
Day Night Mode – “Smart IR” option was added to the IR LED models. “Smart IR” is the ability of the
camera to detect day / night conditions automatically even when the IR LED is lit. It is the same as
“automatic” mode; only that “automatic” mode doesn’t take into account the IR LED illumination.
IR LED Control – the IR LED of the camera can be controlled via the “Mode Switch” property in the
picture settings page in Admin Center. The valid values are (1) LED Off, in which the IR LED is always
turned off. (2) LED Auto, in which the IR LED is controlled by the camera.

In motion events, the camera doesn't indicate the zone in which motion
was detected; hence Latitude can only report a general Motion-On event
for the camera, and not per zone.
While the camera supports both MJPEG and H264, Latitude uses the H264
only.
Latitude AdminCenter allows the user to choose video resolution
combinations of stream 1 and stream 2 which might be invalid by the
camera. User should be familiar with the camera limitations regarding
video resolution. As a rule of thumb – the video resolution of stream 1
must be greater or equals to the video resolution of stream 2.
The camera requires that all video and audio encoders must be configured
with the same connection type either Multicast or Unicast. Latitude
AdminCenter enforces this limitation of the camera.
All video and audio encoders share the same multicast address. They differ
only in the multicast port number. Latitude AdminCenter enforces this
limitation.
The multicast port is not configurable via Latitude.

All zones share the same sensitivity level. Configuring sensitivity level for one
zone will override the configuration of all others. This is a camera limitation.
The level of motion detection reported by the camera is common for all
zones. The only difference between the zones is in the motion-on threshold
which determines what level of motion triggers a motion-on event.
Motion Indication is taken from the overall motion on all zones selected, if no
zone was created, the motion indication will be taken from the entire field of

ioi - Admin
center
ioi - Admin center - key frame interval doesn't change on VBR, H264.
As a result of this fix the Key-Frame Interval parameter of IOI units is now
measured in seconds instead of frames.
Existing installation with ioimage device require the video profiles to be
adjusted accordingly.
Example:
In previous versions, if an ioimage video profile had a frame rate of 25 fps and
key frame interval of 25, the key frame frequency was 1 key frame per
second.
In order to maintain the same key frame frequency in Latitude 6.2.1, this
profile must be adjusted and the Key frame Interval parameter has to be set
to 1.

for the EV Series encoders. It aligns the EV Series encoders with other DVTel’s encoders and
cameras in terms of motion detection configuration experience.
o
The motion bitmap shows a visual representation of the motion in the image. It allows the
user to better set the sensitivity value, affecting the detected motion.

EV Series - Latitude discovers 3 encoders for each input when the
unit is discovered in multi-scene mode. Per the requirements, only 2
encoders should be created.
EV Series - Red frame disappears (motion off event was fired) and
gauge does not reflect correctly. (Even though it is above motion off
threshold and not beneath it)
EV Series FW 2.2 - The macro-block bitmap is not scaled according to
resolution, rather it seems to be always according to 4cif.
When displaying EV-116 live stream in Control Center, ART logs
show repeatedly the following: "ERROR

EV-101-D, on CC, Multicast - Dragging live on analog monitor it can
be seen on the analog monitor that the icon is changed to
"Playback" but it is actually a Live stream.
EV - Out of focus action description in alarm pane displays $
variables instead of actual camera information.
EV Series is rebooted as result of wrong MinQ set for each
Resolution.
EV-101D after a reboot "Unit name" OSD disappears (live and

Feature
Description
Video Settings
When moving from "separate" to "joined", the second stream is not
being disabled on the camera and therefore there is no motion
detection. The motion works only in join stream or if disabling the
second stream manually from the camera web interface.
Video Settings
The camera has 2 modes of operations (720p and 1280*1024) while
on Latitude it is impossible to control the camera modes.
In order to select the desired mode, the user has to select it via the
Web, prior to connecting to Latitude.
Video Settings
When defining 1280x720 and 30 fps on the first stream of the
camera, the unit stops recording/ showing video. As a result the
camera is shown as inaccessible in Latitude. The unit doesn’t
support this setting.
Video Settings
When working on mode "1280x720" then Latitude allows selecting
2 resolutions that are not suitable: 1280x960 and 1280x1024. If one
of those resolutions are selected for the camera from Latitude, the
camera resolution is not affected.

8. Edge Devices General Notes
8.1.1 Always Streaming support (Auto Start Stream)
Always Streaming, also known as ‘Auto Start Stream’ is a feature allowing Latitude to configure the edge
devices to continuously stream live video, regardless of viewing requests. This mode is different than the
default behavior of the system, which is ‘streaming on demand’.
Not all edge device types support always streaming (Auto start stream). The list below shows which
edge device types support this feature.

10. Important Notes
1. Changing computer name will change the machine ID – This requires the license to be reissued by
DVTel and reactivated by the user using the new machine ID.
2. In order to change IP addresses of Directory, Archiver or any other Latitude server, please refer to
the topic “Changing IP Address and Computer Name” in the Latitude Help file.
3. For users of Windows7 with Aero Theme Support – Aero Theme is not recommended to use as it
may cause GUI issues.
However – For those using Aero Theme - In order to get the best video performance out of the
Latitude Control Center we recommend that the ‘Computer Base Score’ is between 3.5-5. In case
your computer Base Score is lower than 3.5 the following workaround should be used:

In the CC config file, set devices per monitor to 1 (from default 4).
-
Note that reducing the devices per monitor will reduce performance and reduce
Latitude 3D requirements.
You should expect a decrease of performance decrease (with respect to frame rate)
when having many active tiles rendering with a single device.

Disable Aero.
For further information, please refer to ‘Microsoft Help’ to view your computer's base score.

Description
Upgrade - Cancelling the upgrade process at the window stage
(after the self extract stage is done), results in Latitude services
remaining in "manual" state.
Workaround: user will need to change to Manual and start the
Safrun.
Shutting down the application server from AC causes Ssafrun to
restart it and report a crash. The server “state” in Admin Center
remains “Shutdown” (although it is up).
Manually shutting down CaseBuilder/Transcoder/Gateway from
Admin Center causes server “state” in “General” pane to remain
“shutdown“ after restarting it (although it is up).
Two ControlCenter clients editing the same case will result in a
crash for one of them.

and on Latitude and doesn't work on AXIS and Hermes units after
upgrade
ControlCenter with an opened case will crash if the case is
deleted by another Client.

and should be changed to GMT
Web client - clicking on backspace button when trying to edit the
to/from date/time fields leads to pointing the browser to the
login page(also issue appear when changing AM\PM from inside
the time selection).
Iris open/close buttons are only functioning as step-by-step (each
click changes a little, to change the iris in a drastic way, a lot of
clicks are required), while focus buttons are continuous (focus
keeps changing until the button is released)
Layout tour causes memory leak and crashing after 2-3 days while
working in Average CPU of 90% on win7 32bit.
Tile toolbar doesn’t show PTT icon for a microphone with linked
speaker, same problem exists also in 6.1.1.46.
When displaying alarm sequence with user that is not ADMIN but
has privileges, Pause alarm sequence is disabled (workaround to
add this privilege in Advance mode).
Transcoder do not bind an occupied RTSP port after it was
released without manually changing the port via AC.
Cancelling the upgrade process at the window stage (after the

Feature
Description
Video Display
Issues with
Remote
Desktop apps
Latitude client applications will not function well when remote
desktop software, such as VNC or Go-To-Meeting, is using a mirror
driver (AKA hook driver) to capture screen changes, which interferes
with the Latitude Video rendering. The workaround is to disable the
mirror driver of the remote desktop software and select alternative
method of screen capturing.

'camera name' only the 'sequence entity's name'
Web client - Unprivileged scene is displayed while viewing it in
camera sequence.
