Release 0.0.8

Release notes

• Unified view and grid views. A grid is a view with multiple cameras and a view has only one camera view. Same views, javascript files and stylesheets for both.
  
• New getCamerasSortedArray() method in config to return a sorted cameras array. This is used to display the cameras list properly ordered.

Release 0.0.7

Release notes

• Implemented the grab exit event to try to rerun the process after a short delay.
• Max video time limit in seconds.
• Links to grid, views and events in the cameras list at the main page.

Release 0.0.6

Release notes

• Socket.io reconnect ok. Moved the for loop that emits subscribe events for the cameras into the connect event. After reconnect this event is fired again.
• Alert box to show client disconnect.
• Fixed a bug in using the '(new Date()).toISOString().substr(0,10)' expression to get the date folder name where the recordings are saved. The time returned did not consider the  timezone.
• Added -y option in ffmpeg command to overwrite output files without asking.

Release 0.0.5

Release notes

• New page for viewing the recorded events.
• Fixed bug with event mp4 video generated. Added "-pix_fmt yuv420p" output parameter to the ffmpeg command. Now the generated video plays in Google Chrome browse.

Release notes

• Fixed the problem with multichannel cards. Reads from multiple cameras connected to the same chip (device - e.g. /dev/video0) are now synchronous.
• Implemented a simple image change detection routine to trigger event recording.
• Improvements in the client (browser) to allow grid camera view positioning and resizing, saving these customizations using HTML5 localStorage feature.
• Events recording for each configured camera.

Release 0.0.3

In this third release, the project is becoming more functional and stable.

We already have a configuration file with server and cameras configuration options. See the wiki configuration page.

Some screenshots from this release:

See more details in our github page.

Release 0.0.2

This screenshot shows version 0.0.2 working with two cameras (the second one is defective) connected to a Geovision GV-800 card.

This second release is again a concept proof to test some design and tools options.

No configuration yet, and almost everything is hard coded.

I'm developing this on an Ubuntu 12.04 64 bits server with a GV-800 card with two attached cheap mini-cameras, the second one with malfunction, as we can see above.
