IP camera protocol parameters

No. 43913

New parameters were added for the IP camera device and software module to enable the user to set activity logs and the priority of their application:

 Camera = ( Protocol = rtsp Host = 192.168.218.203 Port = 554 Object = axis-media/media.amp?videocodec=mpeg4&resolution=640x480 Login = root Password = root RTP = ( Protocols = tcp;udp-unicast;udp-multicast Port = 10000 ) ) 
    

The Protocols parameter enables the user to set the priority of transferring RTP packets: tcp; udp-unicast; (similar to udp), udp-multicast. Protocols are separated by comma (), or by a semicolumn (;). It is not required to specify all the protocols. Protocols which are not mentioned will be treated as having lower priority. The camera will use the first suitable protocol in the list.

Default values: tcp; udp-unicast; udp-multicast.

Examples:

  • tcp (equal to: tcp; udp-unicast; udp-multicast);

  • udp-multicast) (equal to: udp-multicast; udp-unicast);

  • udp;tcp; (equal to: udp-unicast; tcp; udp-multicast).

The Port parameter specifies the UDP port which will receive RTP packets. The camera can ignore this port and select another one (for example, when using the udp-multicast protocol). It is a recommended parameter.

Default value is 9000.

If the RTP parameter is not specified, the default value will be applied.

Stock item units of measurement

No. 43705

In the stock item window stock item units of measurement were synchronized.

Value selected in the Unit (stock item) field of the Properties panel and values in other panels of this stock item window (Nutritional value, Butchering, Substitutes, Weight) must belong to the same group of measurement units. For example, if litre and kilogramme are placed in different groups, you cannot measure the primary stock item in kg and its substitute in litres.

If any operation (for example, pasting a stock item from the clipboard into a recipe of another stock item) results in the conflict of measurement units, all units of measurement will be replaced with the most recently entered (or edited) unit. This unit becomes the primary unit of measurement for this stock item. The following message will be displayed in case of conflict of measurement units:
