v1.4 [Jul 26, 2011]
Improved Support of Different Network Environments
Bandwidth management
In order to efficiently access cameras in networks with different bandwidths (e.g. local company network and Internet), MxEasy allows managing the required bandwidths. When using a mobile computer, for example, you can select the proper environment to adjust the access to the connection speed (slow, remote). By assigning a network bandwidth in the Preferences > Connections dialog, the application sets a bandwidth for the selected environment. This bandwidth is then used to access the live images and to get the recorded video from the camera when searching recordings. In case you would like to set different connection speeds for specific cameras, you can do so in the camera's Properties dialogs. Four levels of bandwidth are available:
Slow Remote Modem, ISDN, GPRS, EDGE
Fast Remote DSL, UMTS (3G)
Slow Local WiFi, Ethernet
Fast Local
 Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet
Assigning cameras to an environment
To assign cameras to different environments, you can activate/deactivate cameras in either the Camera Management dialog or the camera list as required. You can thus hide cameras that are not available in one environment or that are not to be made available by the administrator without having to completely remove them from the system.
Control Mode
In order to prevent accidental misconfigurations, Release 1.4 of MxEasy introduces the concept of a control mode. For example, if you would like to prevent that the recording type is accidentally changed on a camera that is accessed via the Internet (although you would have the administration right to do so), you can explicitly set this camera to Image Mode. You can adjust the control mode in the Properties dialog for each camera and for every environment.
Full Control
All configuration changes are allowed.
Image Mode
Configuration changes are limited to image settings and PTZ.
Viewer Mode
Configuration changes are not allowed.
Optimized Virtual PTZ for Hemispheric Cameras
The virtual PTZ functions have been optimized to provide full support of Hemispheric cameras in Panorama display mode that are mounted to a wall. This additional display mode is also available for non-hemispheric cameras and provides a quick look around, among other advantages.
Intuitive behavior when clicking/double-clicking
If you would like to enlarge an image area, a simple click on the image is sufficient. Double-clicking zooms out of the image and centers the image. When clicking into the upper or lower third of a Panorama image, the camera does not zoom, but tilts the image up or down, respectively, showing the image area that had been hidden before. Clicking into the image center zooms into the image and centers it.
"Home View" button

Since you can change the displayed image section using the camera and application PTZ functions and also by switching to different display modes, storing a Home View provides a great way to quickly return to a stored view.
Camera and application PTZ functions can be controlled separately
If you would like to prevent users from changing a specific camera view (when not using Full Image Recording), you can deactivate the virtual PTZ functions of the camera. If you choose to deactivate the application PTZ functions (if the image resolution is higher than the area of MxEasy's main window), MxEasy directly controls the camera's virtual PTZ functions.
Regardless of these settings, you can continue to change the displayed image section using the mouse (click and drag to pan/tilt), the mouse wheel (zoom actions), the keyboard or a joystick. MxEasy will let you know which actions it is currently performing (application or virtual camera PTZ actions) by displaying the corresponding on-screen icons.
Improved On-Screen Handling of Event Search in the Player
The event histogram in Player mode that had been introduced in release 1.3 has been further improved in release 1.4. A toolbar provides these additional functions:
Different display modes
Besides completely hiding the on-screen controls, you can select different levels of display complexity by repeatedly clicking on the arrow button, e.g. to hide the event histogram.
Selecting time ranges
Simply click and drag with the mouse to create one or more time ranges for exporting.
Fast exporting in Marker Mode
If Marker Mode is activated, the application automatically selects all video sequences that are played back. To export the selected video sequences, simply click on the Export button .
Advanced Video Search in the "Recordings Browser"
The brand-new Recordings Browser (File > Browse Recordings in the menu) provides an intuitive and efficient method for searching specific events in a multi-camera system, even if the search spans longer periods of time.
