133 Software Q. Why do IDIS Center crash when camera pane goes into full-screen? 2020-04-02
A.

There has been reported the following issue :

A customer experienced IDIS Center crash on their Demo Room PC when a camera pane is clicked and got into the full-screen mode.

After the crash, the IDIS Center window was disappeared but the G2Client.exe was not terminated and still alive in the Task Manager. 
 
- There are two graphic adapters on our PC (Intel UHD Graphics 630 and NVIDIA GTX 1050) and we are using both adapters.
 
- Intel released a new device driver for Intel UHD Graphics 630 on 3/8/2019. Driver version: 25.20.100.6615
 
This issue has been caused after a Windows update.
and after restart the PC, the Crash issue has been started.
Then I rolled back the Intel UHD Graphics 630 driver to the previous one (which is version 22.20.16.4758, dated 8/2/2017)
Then it works without issue.

Solution: 
Reason: Graphic card driver s/w bug.
H/W acceleration decoding of GPU is totally dependent on Intel device driver and implementation, and Client S/W is just interlocked only.
There have been several such issues in the past, all of which were problems with the Intel device driver.
IDIS Center is already using the latest version, so it's not a version compatibility issue,
We have confirmed that the device driver released on a date similar to the problem-resolved device driver is also reproduced on Intel (R) HD Graphics 530.
 
We have checked that the latest device driver at this time, the problem did not occur,
If you use version "2019-05-28 / 26.20.100.6912" or higher, We think it will work properly.
 
No matter how Intel/MS, the device driver is just S/W, so there may be a bug.
If this happens, please upgrade your graphics card to a non-problematic graphics card to fix the problem.

130 Software Q. Where are the ISS event logs stored and what is the maximum file size? 2020-03-16
A.

ISS event logs are stored on the server where each ISS service occurred. That is, ISS event logs stored on the PC where the ISS service is installed.

The maximum file size of the event log is 256 MB.

129 General Q. How can I change protocol in DirectIP 2.0 mode ? 2019-11-08
A.

The existing DirectIP 1.0 protocol has two modes, DirectIP mode and IDIS mode. You have to reboot the camera to change each mode.
DirectIP 2.0 protocol is a unified form of two modes. Without rebooting, the protocol can take advantage of all the advantages of DirectIP mode and IDIS mode.

In DirectIP 2.0, a camera boots up as a DHCP client looking for a DHCP server for about 40 seconds. If no DHCP server is found, it starts up with a linked-local IP address.

127 Camera Q. How to make an audio connection to IDIS cameras? 2018-09-06
A.

How to make an audio connection to IDIS cameras

 

H.265 supporting camera models

rtsp://"IP address: Port number"/media/trackID=90

For example, rtsp://10.0.123.456:554/media/trackID=90

 

H.264 supporting camera models

rtsp://"IP address:Port number"/trackID="maximum number stream+1"

123 Video Recorder Q. Recorders do not have power switch. Is there any way to turn off the recorders? 2018-07-17
A.

The only way to turn off/on the recorders is to plug in/out the power cable. 

The recorders do not have power switch or a UI on their software to turn off the power. This is to remove a possibility that users accidentally press power switch off or click a power off button, resulting in a recording service halt.
