VSF-TURBINE 4.11.2.5

New Features - Turbine Intercom

SNOW-496 IP Station support for RFC3891 SIP "Replaces" Header

The IP Station (Turbine and INCA) now support Reinvite / INVITE with replaces, which is quite common function used in SIP environments. The needed function is described in RFC3891.

SNOW-818 Keep-alive for improved VoIP NAT traversal

NAT keep-alive is a feature that sends very tiny UDP data packets from a VoIP client to the router to show that the port is still in use. Turbine and INCA are now sending keep-alives every 25 seconds if have enabled "NAT Keep Alive" under Call Settings.

SNOW-330 IP Multicast audio support for Pulse Intercom

Turbine and INCA IP intercom stations now support IP multicast audio when configured in Pulse mode. Previously, only SIP mode was supported. Up to 10 multicast IP addresses can be configured.

SNOW-192 Chinese font on Turbine OLED display

Turbine now supports Chinese language characters with new font package. New vsf-chinese-font_x.x.x.x_armel.ipk package is made, which can be installed on the turbine (download can be found on our Wiki)

SNOW-871 TCIV-5 firmware support

Turbine firmware now supports a new TCIV-5 Turbine IP station model.

SNOW-1165 Image quality improvements for TCIV

Low-level optimizations were made for AEWB engine (Automatic Exposure and White Balancing) resulting in following image quality improvements: Better low-light performance, Better overall color accuracy and contrast, Smoother dynamic dark-light transitions.

SNOW-83 ONVIF Profile-S support on TCIV

TCIV now fully supports and is compliant with ONVIF Profile-S specification. As a standard in the industry, Profile-S can be used to integrate with a variety of VMS and NVR products.

SNOW-1166 RTSP support for TCIV video stream

RTSP is an industry standard network control protocol for establishing and controlling media streams. TCIV now comes with a full support for RTSP video streams.

SNOW-1169 Dual stream functionality on TCIV

TCIV now supports dual-streaming functionality where two independent video streams can be separately initiated and controlled. Streams can be configured with different protocols (SIP, RTSP, ONVIF, HTTP), different codec and resolution, and are both lip-synced if audio and video is being used - using the industry standard RTCP protocol.

SNOW-1167 RTSP audio stream support for all Turbine devices

RTSP is an industry standard network control protocol for establishing and controlling media streams. All Turbine intercom devices and kits now fully support RTSP for outgoing audio streams.

SNOW-1168 Lip-sync of Audio and Video on TCIV

Audio and Video streams initiated using ONVIF or RTSP protocols are lip-synced for both streaming and recording, implemented using the industry standard RTP Control Protocol (RTCP).

New Features - Technical Preview

SNOW-330 IP Multicast audio support for Pulse Intercom

Turbine and INCA IP intercom stations now support IP multicast audio when configured in Pulse mode. Previously, only SIP mode was supported. Up to 10 multicast IP addresses can be configured.

Bugfixes and Improvements - Turbine Intercom

MTN-1527 IP Multicast Audio audible interruptions

It is possible to hear audible effects during IP Multicast audio playback, and with a relatively high interval rate.

MTN-1930 TFIE-6 does not display AlphaCom status-messages in Idle

AlphaCom status messages did not work correctly on TFIE-6. For example, it was not possible to see if a TFIE-6 is forwarded(71,72) or marked absent(77x).

MTN-1498 Group call fails after Pulse Server reboots and takes ~ 5 min to work again

The registration information is now properly stored in the Pulse server and Group call shall work immediately after server restart.

MTN-1974 Sound detection on Turbine is not triggered properly

Sound Detection is never triggered on, but "DAK off" is reported. Fixed

MTN-2122 In HD Audio mode the station would report missing RTP

In HD Audio mode the station would incorrectly report missing RTP when it is meant to only send audio. This has been fixed.

MTN-2086 AEC Performance Improvements - Reduced Echo Artifacts

By tuning the Acoustic Echo Cancellation algorithm options we have reduced the level of produced Echo artifacts on Turbine stations at high-level speaker outputs.

MTN-2246 Need review h4. Suspend monitoring not always working for ENA in AlphaCom

Certain directory number configurations could previously stop suspend monitoring from working when using Exigo network amplifiers (ENA) in AlphaCom mode. This has been fixed.

MTN-2085 Far-End signal limiter on Turbine

Far-End signal Limiter filter is designed to avoid powerful Far-End signal bringing the station to PoE shutdown as well as try to avoid Far-End Signal clipping and distortions.

MTN-2019 TCIV displays incorrect default image resolution for MJPEG HTTP

When opening HTTP MJPEG video stream in a web browser (http://IP-Address:8090) the video is displayed in smaller resolution then a defined default of 480p.

SNOW-313 RTSP support for TCIV H.264 stream (AlphaCom)

Added RTSP H.264 support on ITSV-1 to initiate video stream from TCIV in AlphaCom mode

SNOW-1163 IP-LCM IO does not work properly in Pulse/SIP mode

Some outputs/inputs on the IP-LCM are mapped wrongly in Pulse/SIP mode and does not work as expected when configured in the web.

SNOW-1170 TCIV limitations for image resolution

Image resolution for both H264 and MJPEG is now limited to max 480p which increased product stability and overall robustness. Many low-level optimizations were made for AEWB engine (Automatic Exposure and White Balancing) resulting in much better color accuracy, low-light performance and contrast

SNOW-887 Video setup mode "Cisco" removed

Due to the fixes in video stream FPS stability the "Cisco" video setup mode was made obsolete and therefore removed from StationWeb options

SNOW-1030 Video preview interrupted after answering the call

A video preview stream is initially started when ITSV-1 is ringing, but once the call is answered stream will be stopped and new one will be started, and in this case video is lost for 4-5 seconds. This is now fixed

Security fixes and improvements

VSIS-1272 Basic MJPEG HTTP authentication should be enabled by default

Now the option to Enable basic HTTP authentication for HTTP MJPEG is enabled by default

Known Issues

VSIS-878 Factory reset does not delete uploaded Script

All uploaded scripts should also be removed on Factory reset

SNOW-1124 TCIV H264 stream does not work in Honeywell Maxpro NVR

Managed to get MJPEG stream in Honeywell, H264 does not work for some reason

SNOW-1093 Hikvision CE-NVR issues with TCIV H264 stream

Video streaming on CE-NVR-16/32 showed image artifacts

SNOW-760 TCIV H264 stream does not work in Xtrails/Honeywell ADPRO iFT Series NVR

TCIV sends it’s H.264 I-Frames (IDR_SLICE) in multiple NAL units which causes incompatibitliy issues with Xtrails/Honeywell ADPRO iFT Series NVR

MTN-2220 Default SNMP settings issue with firmware downgrade to 4.9

When downgrading from VSFT 4.10+ to 4.9 a factory reset is necessary if user wants to use default SNMP configuration. For custom snmp.conf file, re-upload with a custom snmp.conf file will fix the problem.

MTN-1073 Group call fails if system previously configured with ZAP

If system was configured with ZAP (VS-IMT Pulse SDK project) and then switched to XML configuration by deleting data.lua file, it is possible that Group Calls shall not work. A workaround is that (1) data.lua file is deleted from all stations including Pulse server - this will reboot stations, and (2) after reboot go to Server configuration -> Save + Apply - this will again reboot all stations

MTN-598 IP station fails to register if Hebrew name is too long

More than 12 characters entered causes registration problems
