 Release: General Availability
 '''Name:''' VS-Recorder
 '''Date:''' 20.08.2024

'''Description:''' VS-Recorder is the recorder for AlphaCom conversations and associated video. The software is delivered as 2 Windows Installer packages, for server and client.

{{note|
In audio only systems where there are few operators and many substations it is normally only necessary to define the operator stations as device. In systems which involve cameras of which the video needs to be recorded as part of the audio call, all substations must be defined and associated with a camera. In this case it may be advisable not to define the operator stations as well, as the call will be recorded twice, once for the operator, once for the substation. This will in effect half the number of simultaneous calls that can be recorded by the recorder.}}

==Fix==
The filename for automatically exported recordings of 1-to-1 calls was not as specified. The specification is:
*<Optional prefix>YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_sID1_sID2.wav 
**sID1 = SIP directory number of call originating station
**sID2 = SIP directory number of call destination
**HHMMSS in UTC
Due to the fix, the '''Automatic Wav Export''' details need to be entered again in the setup dialog of the recorder client.

==Fix==
The recorder creates subdirectories related to date for storing recorded audio files. Although this is purely system related and has no influence on the operation, date/time stamp handling could appear illogical for people wanting to see where files are stored. This has now been made more deterministic.<br>
Although it might now be easier to find files when searching for them outside the playback client, the files should not be moved or altered in any way. Note also that for privacy and security reasons these audio files cannot be played directly outside the playback client.

Possibility to use a demo license with the Enterprise Management application.<br>
In demo-mode, the enterprise management server will only run for 4 hours, and restart is not possible within 4 hours of the demo-mode expiry.

==Version numbering==

=VS-Recorder 2.1.3.26=
 Release: General Availability
 '''Name:''' VS-Recorder
 '''Date:''' 20.12.2019

==Feature change==
In earlier versions, it was possible to define maximum 6. cameras. This limit has now been removed and replaced with a limit on the maximum number of simultaneous recordings. This is set to 64. Note that a call recording which involves for instance a TCIV and its camera counts as 2 simultaneous recordings, one for the audio call, and one for the video stream.

 Release: General Availability
 '''Name:''' VS-Recorder
 '''Date:''' 15.03.2019

*In that case trying to check the available licenses would crash the client

=VS-Recorder 2.1.3.20=
 Release: General Availability
 '''Name:''' VS-Recorder
 '''Date:''' 10.09.2018

=VS-Recorder 2.1.3.19=
 Release: General Availability
 '''Name:''' VS-Recorder
 '''Date:''' 31.01.2018

==Problems solved==
===NVR2 service crashes on exporting long recordings===
This was a timing issue which has been resolved

=VS-Recorder 2.1.3.18=
 Release: General Availability
 '''Name:''' VS-Recorder
 '''Date:''' 17.01.2018

==Problems solved==
===Impossible to add new AlphaCom connection===
When an old connection was deleted and a new added, the new one could sometimes not be saved, if this was using the last available connection license. This was related to a database cleanup issue.

==New Features==
===Change in user rights assignment===
It is now possible to assign Playback rights independent of Live View rights. 

=VS-Recorder 2.1.3.15=
 Release: General Availability
 '''Name:''' VS-Recorder
 '''Date:''' 11.12.2017

==Problems solved==
===Green led indication in the client that shows active recording goes off after some time===
An on-going recording is indicated by a green indicator in front of the device being recorded. During 24/7 recording of conference channels it could, after some weeks, happen that the indicator would turn gray. This did not affect the recording itself.<br>
The indicator is now updated every 5 minutes. In the worst case, the indicator may therefore turn gray for 5 minutes before being set to green again.

===Failure to playback after pause===
Sometimes, if the pause was used during playback, the audio would not be audible when playback was resumed. Also the audio activity indicator would be stuck in the level at the momwent of pause. This has now been solved.

=VS-Recorder 2.1.3.14=
 Release: General Availability
 '''Name:''' VS-Recorder
 '''Date:''' 06.10.2017

==New Features==
===Export of audio as wave file (wav-format)===
Recordings can now be exported as wave file. When exported in wav-format, the 2 sides of the conversation will always be mixed.<br>
Export to wave does not require an audio export license.

===Recordings are now listed, newest first===
Most of the times, it is a recent recording which is of most interest for playback. Recordings are now listed, newest first.
