Release Summary
With VDG Sense 2.5.12, server boot up time has been significantly reduced. Support for the AXIS P8221 Network Audio Module has been added. The Timeline panel now supports creating Video Tags on recorded data and displaying Device Motion data. Dewarping with VDG now supports fisheye devices mounted on walls.
Note: In the event that it’s required to downgrade from 2.5.12 to 2.5.11, any video tags created in 2.5.12 will not be locked in 2.5.11 or lower, and the data will be overwritten when retention time has been reached. Video Tags created in 2.5.11 will still function correctly in both 2.5.11 and 2.5.12.
For assistance with upgrading from previous VDG Sense versions, please read the “Upgrading Instructions” page.
