anyVID-STOR Release Notes

v4.0.3

Modified how HLS Relay Streams are handed to resolve playback issues experienced with DVR recordings and usage of GoBack, when watching live (still playing) content.
Fixed an issue preventing the reporting of internal server statistics to the anyVID-AC
Added additional support for anyVID-VM (VOD Manager) to anyVID-STOR Communications
Miscellaneous bug fixes and improvements

Fixed an issue that was causing the "RECORDING" flag in the GUI/Database to report that a program is still recording hours after the recording completed.
- This would not extend the recording time beyond the expected interval
- This could cause unexpected playback issues, if a recording is watched within hours of recording and the flag is still set to "RECORDING"
Fixed an issue that could result in duplicate concurrent programs sharing the same internal Process ID, if more than 1000 programs are already scheduled over the next 14 days.
- This only happened on sites with many recordings
- Unexpected behaviors would include programs being stopped early, programs being recorded at the wrong times, and potential corruption within programs that had been recorded.
Fixed minor visibility issues in anyServer Monitor.
Fixed an error that could cause an Alarm for low RAM, when RAM was normal.
Updated enWall Security to work around a known Apple iOS 14, which triggered enWall's Theft Protection Module, denying Video for some Live and DVR Streams on iOS 14 iPhones and iPads.
Updated enWall Security to work around a known Apple iOS bug in iOS 13 - 14, which can cause loss of Video and potential App crashes on iPhones and iPads that keep bouncing between weak Wifi and Mobile Networks, while watching content.
