Camera Info Window Status format suggestion
The new customizable camera info on the video windows are very helpful. How about making the full suite (pixels, size, data-eage, loss etc. ) available?

Thanks! Works as expected and the smaller menu from clicking the letters are easier than long dropdowns with many items. The orange background burns my eyes though. Can I have it remain grey with a black letter indicating the ON state? momentary re…

V5 trigger other cameras not working
Correction: all 4 events from camera-B were triggered by its own motion detection. Camera-A cross triggering never worked once.

Copy settings from Camera to NewCamera bug?
I agree with Spiv because I encountered the same issue, trying to duplicate cameras then changing just one parameter.

Thanks Ben! I didn't know I could go to capture videos from single camera views.

Error performing motion capture for camera
Q1614 has no zipstream though my other cameras have it. Those zipstream cameras work beautifully with SS while saving tremendous bandwidth. I lowered the Q1614 GOP to 32 and the SS errors did not show again.

I meant thumbnails of each camera to choose which camera's history to review. I'd rather poke at a thumbnail than scroll through the list of camera names for my 16-camera setup, or a scrollable horizontal list of thumbnails across the top.

Your official SecuritySpy iOS app works great. May I suggest using thumbnails instead of cam names in captured video selection??

Axis' Zipstream and SS?
My Axis camera zipstream setup has an option for minimum FPS. Set that to 5 if that's what SS needs for reliable motion detection. Zipstream has options for dynamic FPS and GOP.

Run V5 in El Capitan?
Thanks for the details. I'll definitely go for a try. Over the weekend I installed macOS 10.15 Catalina in Virtualbox on a Windows PC, then installed sS V5 and everything works! This is at a different site that runs Axis Camera Station and SS i…

Run V5 in El Capitan?
Thanks @weatherguy. Can the patch be done in place without reinstalling every app? How long is the whole process? Still on my trusty reliable 2008 Mac Pro 3,1 8-core. 11 years without a single hiccup!

Run V5 in El Capitan?
Is v4 compatible with v5 when v4 is used just as a viewer for the v5 server? Any issues to watch out for?

Run V5 in El Capitan?
I bought the V5 upgrade, already got a new license code, my v4 license still works. Are you saying my v4 will no longer work when Ben finds out? Please don't inactivate my old v4 license because I'd rather shelf my brand spanking new v5 …

Updated to 4.2.11, same symptom. Deleted the camera in question and re-added. Problem fixed and no audible lag.

Axis digital autotracking
I use Axis's digital autotracking on several of their cameras. Yes it serves a separate stream and SS just required one camera license for all the streams from the same ip.

line-in audio out of sync with USB camera
Continuous captures are about 30 min. I noticed the problem only after May 9 or May 10 and I remember that's approximately when SS was upgraded to 4.2.10. Clips from before that had no similar issues. The out-of-sync is from the start to the …

Everything works as expected after forcing the camera to factory default and re-setup. Must be user error earlier. Thanks!

Is there a way to request the SS Web Server to stream a camera at a lower resolution than the source? I use Tinycam on my Android phone to watch live from SS but do not see any resolution settings.

"Video Device Setting -> Input Number" corresponds to Axis Stream Profiles?
Problem solved: instead of leaving Frame Rate to default, I forced Frame Rate to a defined number in addition to setting resolution to 640x360, then SS gets the low resolution stream.
