MTN-3259 Added option to make device ringlists independent of Edge Controller ringlist updates

When ‘No updates from Edge Controller’ checkbox is enabled, the ringlist is managed locally in the station. Global ringlist configuration in the Edge Controller is then ignored.

Issues fixed

MTN-4167 Upgrade of IPDM-V2_P now possible

Hardware revision 2 of the IPDM-V2_P failed to upgrade. This is resolved, and you can now upgrade to 7.5.3.1 or newer versions. Note that it is not possible to downgrade to versions older than 7.5.3.1.

MTN-4148 Circle showing PTZ location is now visible again

In image settings for video devices, the circle showing PTZ location was not showing. this is now fixed.

MTN-4056 It's now possible to disable OPTIONS timeout in Edge mode

Added a text field to disable or change the timeout for SIP OPTIONS when in Edge mode. Setting the timeout to 0 disables it. This option is analog to the one provided in SIP mode.

MTN-4047 It’s now possible to use W as the second letter in a password

The issue was that with W as second letter in a password you could not get access to the video configuration page on the device web. This is now fixed.

MTN-4000 RTSP can now be enabled or disabled

RTSP stream can be manually enabled or disabled (it's enabled by default), when disabled all RTSP related settings get grayed out (disabled).

MTN-3941 Accepting and responding with correct payload type

When receiving a video call, the TCIV+ would respond 200 OK with a Payload type which was different from the Payload type actually used. This could sometimes cause video issues such as late or no video at all.

Known Issues

MTN-4121 Known issue: Asterisk discards alternative profiles

Default setting for ITSV-5 sends 3 types (BP & MP & HP). However, Asterisk discards all but the first profile it receives (HP in this case). Since only the "Baseline profile" is supported on the device the video doesn't load. A workaround to this issue is to select "Baseline profile" as the H.264 profile type on the ITSV-5.

The issue has been reported and documented here: https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-29182
