Beta version Xeoma 24.12.3 (December 3, 2024):

All improvements from previous Xeoma 24.11.13 and Xeoma 24.10.1 beta versions.
Improved smart scaling optimization of Xeoma interface depending on the environment it is launched on, and of the manual scaling option.
Further design enhancements revolving around color, smoothness, curves and positioning of the new elements.
Fixed heightened GPU load that could occasionally appear in previous betas.

Beta version Xeoma 24.11.13 (November 13, 2024):

Added the new Setup Wizard with thoroughly selected options. Setup Wizard is a window where we cherry-picked the most popular, useful and logical options you might need for a quick setup. With its help, you can add a module to the chain of a camera or several cameras – or add a whole new chain with a specific set of modules; enable visualization of moving objects; turn on our proprietary P2P connection; configure access rights for security operators; scale the interface and perform many other actions – all from the same window! Besides greeting you at your first ever launch of Xeoma, the Setup Wizard can be opened at any time from the Main Window’s “+” menu, where it now resides as the first option.
Interface improvements: added more languages (up to a total of 78 now!), improved icons, transparency, text rendering – especially when you scale the interface.
Fixed the occasional issue with cameras stopping working randomly.
Smoke Detector: increased accuracy and reduced system resources load.

Beta version Xeoma 24.10.1 (October 2, 2024):

We present to you a more modern and stylish Xeoma interface. The design changes are aimed at ensuring minimalism, where everything is intuitive without explanations, and nothing distracts from important tasks. Nearly all aspects of Xeoma have been improved: menus, dialogs, module icons, the archive viewing interface, and much more!
* A more stylish color scheme meets contemporary standards. The glowing outline of dialogs and selected elements helps to place emphasis where needed.
* Borderless icons for modules, elements in dialogs, and bottom panel menus are not only more stylish but also maintain their quality when scaled.
* The bottom panel: minimalist icons and the menus they are associated with are now centered.
* The archive timeline has a new, more compact look, where elements expand when hovered over. The archive menu icon and its associated pop-up menu have been moved to the right.
* The appearance of dialogs and menus has also changed. They are now outlined with a glow, and the previously used checkboxes have been replaced with switches.
* The glowing outline of module icons in chains prevents them from blending with the background camera image. Modules in workflow chains now have their names displayed at all times. On the top panel, on the contrary, module icons are shown without their names by default, but their names appear when hovered over. After a couple of seconds of idling, the panel dissolves back to its minimalist form.
* Superfluous borders, panel edges, and other distracting elements and colors have been removed. Instead, visual separation is used now where needed — for example, in Tabs or on the archive player timeline.
* Options in the welcome window that users see when launching Xeoma for the first time have been reworked. It now features all the most essential features!
Added the ability to have cameras connected using a combination of their IP address + MAC address. This is useful if the camera dynamically receives its IP address via DHCP: in this way, the program can obtain the current IP address of the camera without interrupting its operation, even when the address changes. You can find this option in the “Universal Camera” settings.
Xeoma Pro: Added support for Orion Bolid devices. On Xeoma’s interactive eMap, you can now select an Orion Bolid device and link it to a camera. After that, its operation resembles the integration of point-of-sales cash registers with the “HTTP Marking” module: when triggered, the device will send its event metadata to the associated camera’s recording, allowing you to find the corresponding episode by these tags. You can find the dedicated Orion Bolid event search in Xeoma’s Archive Viewer menu.
In Multi-Camera View Window, you can now hear several cameras’ audio streams at once if you choose to. We lifted the 1-audio-stream-only limitation for the Main Window, so now you can click the ‘Sound’ icon in several camera preview boxes to turn on their sound. To adjust the sound volume, go to a camera’s Single Camera View Window (the ‘Quick Settings’) where you can open the volume slider.
Voice-to-Text: Improved accuracy in the recently released Additional module ‘Voice-to-Text’.
Restaurant Visitors Counter: Improved recognition and counting accuracy in the Additional module ‘Restaurant Visitors Counter’.
The ‘Senstar PTZ Tracking‘ module is no longer a separate module – instead, it has become a feature in the ‘PTZ Tracking’ module. Please note that while the ‘PTZ Tracking’ module is available in both Xeoma Standard and Xeoma Pro editions, a Xeoma Pro license would be required to use the ‘Senstar PTZ Tracking’ feature.
Added a new option to disable any messages display in the camera image cell. Find it in Layouts -> Visualization settings.
Construction Site Safety Detector: Fixed incorrect status in the Additional module ‘Construction Site Safety Detector’ when triggered by a ‘no helmet or uniform’ option.
Xeoma Pro Your Cloud: Fixed an issue where data from already deleted subscriber accounts was not being removed.
Screen Capture: Fixed random crashes when working with the ‘Screen Capture’ module on Windows.
Remote Connection / Xeoma for Android app: Fixed potential issues with connecting from the Xeoma Android app to Xeoma servers via QR code.
Fixed random crashes when using the ‘Streaming to YouTube’ module.
Remote P2P Connection: Fixed occasional 2-second connection delay when connecting to Xeoma servers via P2P – now connection is established faster.

Official version Xeoma 24.9.24 (September 24, 2024):

All changes and improvements from the previous official version Xeoma 24.9.2.
Fixed crash of the Android app when used on devices that do not support the recent design changes.
Fixed web interface login issues when logging in with a user account – both in Xeoma for desktops and Xeoma Cloud.

New interface: Innovation from Xeoma! Xeoma’s interface has been updated to give the software a more modern look and increase the usable space. Here are some more improvements related to usability:
* Menus and panels are now semi-transparent and reduced in size. You can adjust their transparency level. Besides, they no longer have frames around them, and begin to smoothly disappear when idle (that includes the timeline in the archive player) — but don’t worry they can be brought back by any mouse, keyboard, or touch (for touch-enabled devices) action.
* A more concise design and a color scheme that helps you focus on the important information without distractions;
* A background image has been added, which is displayed when there are no cameras yet – for example, when launching the program for the first time;
* The ‘Welcome’ window has been re-designed to provide only the necessary and more understandable options;
* The bottom panel with icons can now be moved upwards;
* The black line separating cameras on the Main screen (Multi-Camera View Window) has been removed, allowing you to have more usable space;
* An option added to the Xeoma’s built-in Archive Player to enable a minimalist version of its control panel that only shows the most essential information and takes up less space. To do that, just drag the panel halfway down. Besides, you can move the panel all the way up to have the panel stick to the top of the screen;
* The image refresh rate for view of cameras in the Xeoma interface is no longer limited by the software and fully matches the camera’s video stream refresh rate.
Xeoma localized into 33 more languages: Afrikaans, Albanian, Arabic, Armenian, Azerbaijani, Bengali, Burmese, Filipino, Georgian, Hebrew, Hindi, Icelandic, Indonesian, Kazakh, Latvian, Lithuanian, Macedonian, Marathi, Nepali, Norwegian, Oriya, Pashto, Persian, Punjabi, Serbian, Slovakian, Swahili, Tajik, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Urdu, Uzbek
Added the mechanism to check if the machine launching a Xeoma Client uses one of the languages mentioned above – if it does, the client will be launched in that language. You can choose another language in Xeoma’s Main menu -> Information -> Language. Your choice will be remembered and applied for all the following launches.
New Additional module “Restaurant Clients Counter”: Added a new Additional module based on Artificial Intelligence and tailored to count customers and clients seated at a table of a restaurant, café and other public establishment. Select areas with tables in the settings of this module, and the module will begin to monitor each table, looking for people there and counting them in real-time. The information will be dynamically stored in a CSV log or transmitted to your PostgreSQL database. Collecting such statistics will help you learn more about your customers and optimize your business for them.
Xeoma Pro: Added the new intellectual module “Voice-to-text” that uses a camera’s audio stream to detect speech and converts it to text in CSV reports or overlays it in preview. Are you looking for a tool that can let you know when it hears a key word or phrase? Or maybe you’d like to get voice-to-text transcripts of what call operators, insurance consultants or cashiers are saying to customers in your business establishment? All this and even more can be done with Xeoma’s new intellectual module for speech recognition called ‘Voice-to-Text’! Despite this video analytical module using artificial intelligence algorithms, it is included into the Xeoma Pro edition, so working with it is also very affordable! Read more about it here
Added support for the H266 video codec (also known as VVC or MPEG-I Part 3) so H266 camera streams can be connected to Xeoma! Researches show that H266 is 50% more efficient than H265. Better compression quality helps to achieve excellent image quality with lower network and disk space requirements — or, to put it another way, to get higher-resolution video streams at the “old” network load level!
Joystick for PTZ control: Added support for USB joystick control under Linux. Now you can use USB joysticks to control PTZ functions of pan-tilt-zoom cameras and navigate the Xeoma interface not only on Windows operating systems but also on supported Linux distributions.
Archive: Added motion intensity visualization on the archive timeline for cameras that have a “Motion Detector” module in their chains. Darker color areas indicate less motion, while brighter-colored areas indicate that they contain more frequent motion. This is a great addition to the heatmap, which is also based on data from the Motion Detector – but uses different colors to indicate areas in the frame with different motion intensity. However, the new feature is available right there when you open the player, without any additional action on your part, helping operators assess the motion situation at just one glance at the timeline.
Cross-Line Detector: The “Cross-Line Detector” module, available in the Xeoma Pro edition, has been complemented with a new option to count visitor per storey. Enable this mode by checking the corresponding option in the module’s settings, and then specify the floor number there. Xeoma will collect information from all of your ‘Cross-Line Detector’ modules and count the number of visitors, broken down by floor. It is also possible to use several cameras on one floor to count entrants and leavers separately.
Slip and Fall Detector: The Additional module “Slip and Fall Detector” has been enhanced to detect falls from the bed. Now the module can detect not only complete falls and falls from a chair but also falls from a bed, which is ideal for use in medical institutions and for monitoring safety of elderly people.
Detector of Construction Site Safety: An option to choose the color of helmets for detection has been added to the “Detector of Construction Site Safety” Additional module. Now the module can be set to react only to the selected color of helmets in sight (white, yellow, red, etc.).
Detector of Construction Site Safety: New Artificial Intelligence algorithms have been added to the “Detector of Construction Site Safety” Additional module for more accurate detection of protective helmets.
Detector of Construction Site Safety: An option to enable post-recording has been added to the “Detector of Construction Site Safety” Additional module, which means that the system will keep working for some time after the disappearance of the desired object from the frame.
Object Recognizer: Support for new, more accurate recognition algorithms, previously only available in Xeoma running on Windows, has been added to the “Object Recognizer” Additional module for Linux-based operating systems. These new recognition algorithms help the module work faster, better, and more accurately.
Camera search: An option to hide the password input dialog has been added for the search for blocked cameras in local network. Besides, the fields in this dialog will be auto-filled with previous data you entered.
Camera search: Local camera search has been improved for situations when different cameras are located at the same address but on different ports.
Support for https stream from AXIS cameras has been added.
Support for the Wansview W2 camera has been added.
Mobile notifications: Improved quick jump to a corresponding archive record through push notifications sent by the ‘Mobile Notifications’ module in the Xeoma for Android app.
Added the -pcm console command, which allows launching Xeoma with support for PCM sound format for HikVision IP cameras.
ANPR (License Plate Recognition): Added support for the “License Plate Recognition” module in the Xeoma app for Android. This applies to both the basic version of ANPR available in Xeoma Pro and the Additional package for the enhanced version of ANPR purchased extra.
ANPR (License Plate Recognition): Added support for Russian regions 916, 977, and 978 in the the enhanced version of ANPR facilitated by the Additional package purchased extra.
Xeoma app for Android: Xeoma’s Android app now supports increasing/decreasing the sound volume in live view and playback of recordings using the phone’s volume control buttons.
Export: The built-in Xeoma recordings player now offers the option to select the start and end date/time of a fragment for export using some sort of a pop-up calendar. It’s a new alternative way to the previously available export method using selection of a fragment by placing markers above the timeline.
Screen Capture: More options for selecting the frame capture rate (the so called FPS rate) have been added to the “Screen Capture” module. Now you can choose to have the screen refresh interval at 30, 60, or ‘maximum’ frames per second — instead of the previously max 25 fps available.
Preview and Archive: In the “Preview and Archive” module settings, the display of statistics has been improved for cases when recording is done on multiple disks. Now, information about the volume of each disk is displayed in such cases.
Sending Email: The “Sending Email” module has been improved. Now the first email is sent immediately, not after a timeout. This allows you to receive the first notification as soon as it is needed, without delays.
PTZ control: Fixed an issue where a PTZ control icon could appear for cameras without actual PTZ support.
Free edition: Removed the “Unitor” module from the list of available modules in the Free Edition, as the limitations of this mode do not allow the use of more than one source in the chain anyway.
Marking: Fixed an issue in the “Marking” module where marking could disappear if it was set up through group settings.
Archive view: Fixed an issue in the Xeoma’s built-in archive player where, when viewing archives from multiple cameras simultaneously, the data in the Calendar did not match the actual recording data of these archives.
Improved PTZ control for the MS-C8241-X36PE camera: fixed moving to PTZ presets for this PTZ network camera.
Fixed an issue where the Detailed Settings window could take a long time to open when a client connected to the server. The problem appeared with a large number of “heavy” cameras that had the “Problems Detector” module in the chain with the option for blur and defocus analysis selected. In the new version of Xeoma, this configuration is no longer an obstacle to opening the Detailed Settings window.
Parallel recording of a smaller archive: Fixed an issue where, when using parallel recording of a smaller archive, the low-resolution archive was not distributed across all specified paths – instead it was written only to the first path specified in the “Preview and Archive” module settings.
Fixed periodic server freezing on a Mac with an m1 processor when working with a USB camera.
Fixed a potential crash of the program on Linux operating systems when using the “Face Recognition” module.
Digital zoom: Fixed a possible issue with digital zoom where the wrong area used to get zoomed in. The issue occurred with a certain window size of the Xeoma window.
Eliminated the issue where cameras would ‘freeze’ if the client had been ‘minimized’ and not viewed for a while.

Fixed a potential crash of the program on Linux operating systems when using the “Face Recognition” module.
Digital zoom: Fixed a possible issue with digital zoom where the wrong area used to get zoomed in. The issue occurred with a certain window size of the Xeoma window.

Preview and Archive: New feature: when hovering the cursor over the timeline in Xeoma’s Archive Player, you will now get to see small thumbnails – mini preview pictures of some key frames within those episodes, much like when viewing a video on YouTube. Those mini previews will showcase key frames of the recording episode your mouse is hovering over, thus compressing hours of recordings into seconds to watch through.
Remote Access: An easy way to connect – with a QR code – has been added for Android-powered devices. Now you can generate a QR code in Xeoma’s ‘Users’ dialog, which will contain all connection data needed to connect to that Server part of Xeoma from a Xeoma Client. Just scan the QR code with the special option in your Xeoma for Android app’s Connection Dialog (Main menu -> Remote access -> Connect to). The QR code will work for both ‘Administrator’ and a ‘User’ of Xeoma, with regular IP-address connection and with P2P connection.
Support for hardware acceleration on AMD Radeon graphics cards has been added! Also, hardware acceleration used for decoding of camera video streams has been greatly improved in Windows and Linux systems using Intel processors or Nvidia graphics cards.
Preview and Archive: A noise reduction option ‘Enable noise reduction’ has been added to the settings of the ‘Preview and Archive’ module. The option works with any audio types in Xeoma, and delivers clean sound even when the direct saving to the archive is used. This feature becomes available for all cameras if Xeoma Pro license for at least 1 camera is activated, and also for Xeoma Pro Trial edition.
Text Recognition: Special optimizations for working with meter readings have been added to the ‘Text Recognition’ module. To take advantage of this feature, check the new ‘Meter’ setting, and the module will switch to a mode optimized for working specifically with meters of various types (water, electric, natural gas ones, etc.).
Face Recognition: A new option – ‘Use additional detection via MTCNN’ – has been added to the ‘Face Recognition’ module, which allows you to improve the quality of finding faces in the frame. The new option is compatible with both recognition algorithms (statistical analysis and AI). To enable the feature, check it and allow Xeoma to download additional materials for work. Please note that using this feature imposes additional CPU load.
ANPR (License Plate Recognition): A new country – Iraq – has been added to the Additional package of enhanced ANPR, which adds up to the previously available North American, CIS countries, Jordan and Japan. This is the first time the Advanced ANPR option has support for Arabic symbols, too!
Streaming to Youtube: The ‘Streaming to Youtube’ module now offers streaming to an alternative platform called RuTube. All you need is an rtmp link and the broadcast key from RuTube, and off your broadcast goes! See detailed guide here
New feature: Notifications. A new item called ‘Notifications’ has been added to Main Menu -> Remote Access. Inside, you can configure the receipt of notifications on your mobile device when the connection to a Xeoma server or an external device is lost. Unlike Xeoma’s other module for system health monitoring – ‘Problem Detector’ that is also capable of detecting the occurrence of problems – ‘Notifications’ has the unique ability to send an alarm message when a Xeoma server stops working, for example, due to a power outage! Also, ‘Notifications’ will work even without connecting the ‘Mobile Notifications’ module to the chain. The only thing required is to give the Xeoma application on your mobile device permissions to show notifications the first time you connect to the Xeoma Server with the ‘Notifications’ feature.
Device List: Search has been added to the ‘Groups’ dialog. Simply enter a camera’s IP address or name into the search box to find it in a matter of seconds. Besides, now there is a CTRL+G (CMD+G for Mac) hotkey to open the Groups pop up in any window, including Xeoma’s embedded Archive Player.
New feature: autofocus. The new version of Xeoma offers the option to automatically check for loss of focus on cameras with ONVIF-facilitated support for PTZ, and attempt to return it. Find ‘Autofocus Settings’ in the ‘Universal Camera’ module settings and select one of the two options: ‘Autofocus based on image analysis’ which makes the program constantly check the camera scene for signs of defocusing, or ‘Autofocus at regular time interval’ to just make the camera focus back regularly at given intervals.
QR Code Recognition: The pass list option has been added to the ‘QR Code Recognition’ module. With the new option, the module allows to create a ‘white list’ of codes to react to (or the other way around – make the system only react to codes not from the list). All you need to do is just enter the text behind the QR code into the ‘Whitelist the code below’ field and select the desired mode in the ‘Module reaction type’ drop-down menu.
Search for DVRs that do not support ONVIF has been improved. Upon detection of such DVRs, the new version of Xeoma is able to add all its cameras, not just one as before.
Problems Detector: The log file of the ‘Problems Detector’ module has been enhanced. Now, when the ‘Processor load’ is engaged, the log file will not just have an entry about the processor load being higher than the threshold you set, but also state the current CPU load in %.
Xeoma Pro Trial edition: The ‘Search by motion’ (the search for motion within an area) has been added to the Trial version of the Xeoma Pro edition.
webRTC: The advances of Xeoma’s webRTC are now available to ARM-based servers (with the ARMv7 or ARMv8 architecture). Since webRTC is the ultra contemporary way of streaming that allows to shift part of the camera processing load onto the web browser’s side, it is compact and less powerful machines such as ARM-powered micro computers that could benefit from it the most.
Face Detector (Emotions): The new option to set up the range of face recognition has been added to the emotion recognition module. Set the maximum distance where the face is expected to appear with a ‘Range of face recognition’ slider to increase the accuracy with which the module detects faces and recognizes emotions. Please note that greater distances will yield higher processor load.
The messages that Xeoma displays when the ‘Show camera information’ option is enabled in ‘Layouts’ -> ‘Visualization settings’ have been enhanced. Now, the information updates more frequently and includes incoming and outgoing network speed of Xeoma’s Server and Client part. Besides, the camera information will stay even if you switch to the Quick Settings (Single Camera view) Window or the Detailed Settings Window.
A new launch parameter – -nosearchservers – has been added for the launch of Xeoma Client parts. This command will make Xeoma opt out of searching for any Xeoma servers in the network to connect to. The automatic search for Xeoma servers lists all found Xeoma Servers in the Connection Dialog, making selection of a server to connect easier for a security operator. But if required, it can now be refrained from with the new command.
PTZ Presets, Tours: More time options have been added to the ‘Stay time’ option of the preset and tour setup dialog, so that now the pause before moving on to another preset can last up to 24 hours. See more about the setup of this Xeoma Pro feature
Xeoma Pro Trial edition: The ‘Play ONVIF archive’ feature that has been previously added for viewing of the recordings from ONVIF-compliant cameras or DVRs directly in the Xeoma’s Archive Player, is now available for tests even in the Trial version of Xeoma Pro. See more about this feature
HTTP Request Sender: More lines for parameters are now available in the ‘HTTP Request Sender’ module, which means that you can use as many parameters for the http command as you’d need now.
Smoke Detector: A new advanced algorithm – ‘Smoke and fire detection with CUDA’ – has been added, which significantly increases the accuracy of smoke and fire detection. To begin using the new advanced recognition method, select the CUDA option from the dropdown ‘Working mode’ option and wait until the additional resources required for work are downloaded. Please note that a CUDA-supporting Nvidia graphics card is required.
Text Recognition: New enhanced artificial intelligence algorithms have been added to the ‘Text Recognition’ module, which has resulted in significantly better text detection and reading.
Face Recognition: A new recognition method – ‘Artificial intelligence using CNN (ConvNet)’ – has been added to the module’s ‘Face detection algorithm’ options. The new method is optimized to work with Asian face types resulting in higher accuracy of their recognition. This work method is available in Xeoma Pro and has basically the same conditions as the ‘Statistical analysis’ option, and does not summarize with other Face Recognition’s work methods (statistical analysis or artificial intelligence).
The previously introduced ‘Freight Unloading Counter’ filter module that detects freight vehicles in the camera field of view and counts the ones that got unloaded, has been enhanced, which results in higher accuracy of recognition and counting.
Cross-Line Detector: The ‘Cross-Line Detector’ module now allows to use separate reactions with each drawn line. It means that you can add all the needed reactions to the chain after ‘Cross-Line Detector’, then draw all required lines in the monitoring zone, and choose a reaction for each of them with the new ‘Selected line’ and ‘Destination filter’ elements underneath the zone.
JSON API: Support for the special character “%” in the name and password of a user, whose credentials are used to send API commands.
webRTC: Motion visualization has been added for viewing of webRTC streams through the web interface. Now, if you have webRTC enabled in your ‘Web Server’ module and use a ‘Motion Detector’, you can see green frames around moving objects in Xeoma’s web interface like you do when viewing cameras through a Xeoma Client.
QR Code Recognition: Fixed the visualization of a recognized QR code. Now the frame around a detected QR code matches its size.
Fixed gray distortions that would appear while shifting between the Single or Multi-Camera View and the Archive Player. See other reasons for gray distortions
PTZ: Fixed an issue when PTZ control of cameras would not work in Xeoma if one of the cameras was going through a PTZ guard tour.
Xeoma Pro Your Cloud: Fixed failing to record archives if an FTP Receiver was used as a video source for a video stream with sound.
RTSP Broadcasting: Fixed an issue when ‘RTSP Broadcasting’ could fail to start working the first time it was added.
Mobile Notifications: Enhanced landing into the archive after clicking on a mobile notification. Now the archive will open on an even more precise position, which will help you get straight to watching the needed episode.
Fixed an issue where Xeoma that has been installed to autostart on Mac OSX systems would not ask for required permissions when recording to an external drive was selected.
Fixed an issue with empty USB cameras being added to Xeoma during a search on Raspberry Pi 2 or Raspberry Pi 3 micro computers.
HTTP Request Sender: Fixed incorrect length calculation in the Content-Length header of HTTP requests.
Web interface: Fixed glitches of the archive player in Xeoma’s web interface that would appear when playing back webRTC archives of recordings with varying resolutions.
Enhanced Xeoma’s feature to search for Xeoma servers from Xeoma Clients. Now it works for Xeoma servers that are located in different subnetworks than the Client.
Fixed sound delay in Xeoma running on macOS machines with an M1 processor.
Improved smoothness of m3u8 video streams in Xeoma.
Fixed an issue in Detailed settings when modules would occasionally end up visually shuffled in a chain.
Motion detector: Fixed the issue with ‘Motion Detector’ stopping working if switched from the ‘Detect only absence of motion during’ mode of work to the regular motion detection mode.
Ubuntu: Fixed occasional crashes from using the ‘Screen Capture’ module on Ubuntu 22.04.
Export: Windows OS: Fixed export fails if the folder path has a dot (‘.’) in the name.

Beta version Xeoma 23.12.7 (December 7, 2023):

Preview and Archive: New feature: when hovering the cursor over the timeline in Xeoma’s Archive Player, you will now get to see small thumbnails – mini preview pictures of some key frames within those episodes, much like when viewing a video on YouTube. Those mini previews will showcase key frames of the recording episode your mouse is hovering over, thus compressing hours of recordings into seconds to watch through.
Remote Access: An easy way to connect – with a QR code – has been added for Android-powered devices. Now you can generate a QR code in Xeoma’s ‘Users’ dialog, which will contain all connection data needed to connect to that Server part of Xeoma from a Xeoma Client. Just scan the QR code with the special option in your Xeoma for Android app’s Connection Dialog (Main menu -> Remote access -> Connect to). The QR code will work for both ‘Administrator’ and a ‘User’ of Xeoma, with regular IP-address connection and with P2P connection.
Support for hardware acceleration on AMD Radeon graphics cards has been added! Also, hardware acceleration used for decoding of camera video streams has been greatly improved in Windows and Linux systems using Intel processors or Nvidia graphics cards.
Preview and Archive: A noise reduction option ‘Enable noise reduction’ has been added to the settings of the ‘Preview and Archive’ module. The option works with any audio types in Xeoma, and delivers clean sound even when the direct saving to the archive is used. This feature becomes available for all cameras if Xeoma Pro license for at least 1 camera is activated, and also for Xeoma Pro Trial edition.
Text Recognition: Special optimizations for working with meter readings have been added to the ‘Text Recognition’ module. To take advantage of this feature, check the new ‘Meter’ setting, and the module will switch to a mode optimized for working specifically with meters of various types (water, electric, natural gas ones, etc.).
Face Recognition: A new option – ‘Use additional detection via MTCNN’ – has been added to the ‘Face Recognition’ module, which allows you to improve the quality of finding faces in the frame. The new option is compatible with both recognition algorithms (statistical analysis and AI). To enable the feature, check it and allow Xeoma to download additional materials for work. Please note that using this feature imposes additional CPU load.
ANPR (License Plate Recognition): A new country – Iraq – has been added to the Additional package of enhanced ANPR, which adds up to the previously available North American, CIS countries, Jordan and Japan. This is the first time the Advanced ANPR option has support for Arabic symbols, too!
Streaming to Youtube: The ‘Streaming to Youtube’ module now offers streaming to an alternative platform called RuTube. All you need is an rtmp link and the broadcast key from RuTube, and off your broadcast goes! See detailed guide here
New feature: Notifications. A new item called ‘Notifications’ has been added to Main Menu -> Remote Access. Inside, you can configure the receipt of notifications on your mobile device when the connection to a Xeoma server or an external device is lost. Unlike Xeoma’s other module for system health monitoring – ‘Problem Detector’ that is also capable of detecting the occurrence of problems – ‘Notifications’ has the unique ability to send an alarm message when a Xeoma server stops working, for example, due to a power outage! Also, ‘Notifications’ will work even without connecting the ‘Mobile Notifications’ module to the chain. The only thing required is to give the Xeoma application on your mobile device permissions to show notifications the first time you connect to the Xeoma Server with the ‘Notifications’ feature.
Device List: Search has been added to the ‘Groups’ dialog. Simply enter a camera’s IP address or name into the search box to find it in a matter of seconds. Besides, now there is a CTRL+G (CMD+G for Mac) hotkey to open the Groups pop up in any window, including Xeoma’s embedded Archive Player.
New feature: autofocus. The new version of Xeoma offers the option to automatically check for loss of focus on cameras with ONVIF-facilitated support for PTZ, and attempt to return it. Find ‘Autofocus Settings’ in the ‘Universal Camera’ module settings and select one of the two options: ‘Autofocus based on image analysis’ which makes the program constantly check the camera scene for signs of defocusing, or ‘Autofocus at regular time interval’ to just make the camera focus back regularly at given intervals.
QR Code Recognition: The pass list option has been added to the ‘QR Code Recognition’ module. With the new option, the module allows to create a ‘white list’ of codes to react to (or the other way around – make the system only react to codes not from the list). All you need to do is just enter the text behind the QR code into the ‘Whitelist the code below’ field and select the desired mode in the ‘Module reaction type’ drop-down menu.
Search for DVRs that do not support ONVIF has been improved. Upon detection of such DVRs, the new version of Xeoma is able to add all its cameras, not just one as before.
Problems Detector: The log file of the ‘Problems Detector’ module has been enhanced. Now, when the ‘Processor load’ is engaged, the log file will not just have an entry about the processor load being higher than the threshold you set, but also state the current CPU load in %.
Xeoma Pro Trial edition: The ‘Search by motion’ (the search for motion within an area) has been added to the Trial version of the Xeoma Pro edition.
webRTC: The advances of Xeoma’s webRTC are now available to ARM-based servers (with the ARMv7 or ARMv8 architecture). Since webRTC is the ultra contemporary way of streaming that allows to shift part of the camera processing load onto the web browser’s side, it is compact and less powerful machines such as ARM-powered micro computers that could benefit from it the most.
Face Detector (Emotions): The new option to set up the range of face recognition has been added to the emotion recognition module. Set the maximum distance where the face is expected to appear with a ‘Range of face recognition’ slider to increase the accuracy with which the module detects faces and recognizes emotions. Please note that greater distances will yield higher processor load.
The messages that Xeoma displays when the ‘Show camera information’ option is enabled in ‘Layouts’ -> ‘Visualization settings’ have been enhanced. Now, the information updates more frequently and includes incoming and outgoing network speed of Xeoma’s Server and Client part. Besides, the camera information will stay even if you switch to the Quick Settings (Single Camera view) Window or the Detailed Settings Window.
A new launch parameter – -nosearchservers – has been added for the launch of Xeoma Client parts. This command will make Xeoma opt out of searching for any Xeoma servers in the network to connect to. The automatic search for Xeoma servers lists all found Xeoma Servers in the Connection Dialog, making selection of a server to connect easier for a security operator. But if required, it can now be refrained from with the new command.
PTZ Presets, Tours: More time options have been added to the ‘Stay time’ option of the preset and tour setup dialog, so that now the pause before moving on to another preset can last up to 24 hours. See more about the setup of this Xeoma Pro feature
Xeoma Pro Trial edition: The ‘Play ONVIF archive’ feature that has been previously added for viewing of the recordings from ONVIF-compliant cameras or DVRs directly in the Xeoma’s Archive Player, is now available for tests even in the Trial version of Xeoma Pro. See more about this feature

Ubuntu: Fixed occasional crashes from using the ‘Screen Capture’ module on Ubuntu 22.04.
Export: Windows OS: Fixed export fails if the folder path has a dot (‘.’) in the name.

Fixed operation of artificial intelligence options in the ‘Motion Detector’, ‘Object Recognizer’, ‘Cross-Line Detector’, ‘Visitors Counter’, ‘Parking Spots’ modules. Before the fix, there had been an issue that in old operating systems the modules would sometimes stop working after the Xeoma update, and in new UNIX-based systems Xeoma would sometimes display a false warning that a few more libraries were required for these features to function.

Beta version Xeoma 23.8.10 (August 10, 2023):

Fixed operation of artificial intelligence options in the ‘Motion Detector’, ‘Object Recognizer’, ‘Cross-Line Detector’, ‘Visitors Counter’, ‘Parking Spots’ modules. Before the fix, there had been an issue that in old operating systems the modules would sometimes stop working after the Xeoma update, and in new UNIX-based systems Xeoma would sometimes display a false warning that a few more libraries were required for these features to function.

Added new licensing model for the ‘Object Recognizer’ Additional module! Now, in addition to usual licenses for recognizing objects of the desired type (drones and airplanes / seabirds / people, vehicles, animals and others), this module will also accept a new, universal license that will allow you to use any type of objects you need. A new license is purchased for the number of cameras on the server that will use the “Object Recognizer” module multiplied by the number of different types of objects. See more in the Object Recognizer Setup Guide
P2P: Added support for P2P connection in the ‘HTTP Upload to Other Xeoma‘ and ‘HTTP Receiver‘ modules.
Preview and Archive: Added the new ‘Latest position (global)’ choice in the Xeoma Archive Viewer’s ‘Start position’ option. This new option will make it easier to watch archive recordings of an event across different cameras in Xeoma’s Archive Viewer since recordings will be starting playback in the same date and time spot.

Fixed the issue with the CTRL button getting ‘stuck’ after being used in the ‘Active licenses’ dialog, which resulted in interface scaling up or down whenever mouse wheel was used even outside of this dialog.

Xeoma Pro: Added a unique feature to open recordings that are stored in a DVR or a camera’s SD card and play them in the Xeoma player. This new feature only works for ONVIF-compliant devices, of which we recommend ones made by HikVision. To open the “ONVIF archive” for a camera, connect it to Xeoma, go to Xeoma’s archive viewer by clicking the “Play” button for this camera, and select the “Play ONVIF archive” option in the archive viewer menu.
LDAP: Added an option to log in with LDAP user profile credentials through Xeoma’s web interface. Like with logging in through a web browser with a Xeoma’s user profile data, the LDAP user will see the cameras and features configured for their profile.
LDAP: Added LDAP integration with FreeIPA, a Linux-based identity management system similar to Microsoft’s Active Directory.
Mobile Notifications: Improved sending of mobile notifications on Android. Now, by clicking on the incoming notification, Xeoma opens the archive player directly on the event that triggered the notification.
Cross-Line Detector: Added the ability to work in conjunction with the “Face Recognition”, the “QR code recognition” and the “Text Recognition” modules. Connect the filter module from this list before the Cross-Line detector to keep counting only the required objects.
USB Joystick: A new joystick mode has been added, where you can set a button that will switch cameras in turn on the selected tab and return to the tab overview.
Archive player: Added reverse playback of recordings in Xeoma’s archive player. Available for both MJPEG and H264 recordings, including the “smaller” archive (lower quality saved with parallel recording) and simultaneous view of several archives.
Archive player: Added hotkeys for the new reverse playback function. Now you can use the keyboard’s “+” to engage regular forward playback, or “-” to enable reverse playback.
Archive player: Fixed long loading of records after restarting the server. Reading information about records from the database has been accelerated, so you can now enter the archive player much faster after restarting the server.
Export: Added a new format – wav – to the Export dialog of the Xeoma’s archive player. This format will help you export an extract with just sound, no video.
Archive: Improved auto-selection of remaining free disk space for records set with the global “Always leave free disk space” setting. Now, if the value of this setting has been changed manually, the newly set value will be used. If this is not done, then the automatically set value recommended by the program will be used.
Archive player: Improved frame-by-frame scrolling of recordings in Xeoma archive player. Now moving around has become more smooth and stable.
Archive player: Improved smoothness when dragging the slider on the timeline by ensuring all frames are displayed.
Secure connection: The “Enable secure https connection” option has been added to the “Web Server” module to enable connection encryption through the browser. Now secure connection can be selected directly in the settings, there is no need to configure it outside Xeoma, as before. Select the option in the module and use Xeoma’s self-signed certificate – or place your own SSL certificate in the path indicated next to the option (the path itself is not editable).
Added the option to view passwords hidden by asterisks. In order to view such a hidden password, click on the “crossed eye” icon in the right corner of the field. In order to hide the password back, click on the icon again (in the password display mode, the “crossed eye” changes its look to just “eye”). This is available in all dialogs where there are hidden passwords, both for the Administrator and for operators who have access to settings.
Eye Tracking: Added the option to save CSV reports that will have a date and time of triggering events. As always, these reports can be used for analysis, graphs building, or integration with third-party systems.
GPIO: Added the option to configure and use multiple pins at once.
Cross-Line Detector: Added a new option to display crossing statistics for a specified period. The calculation is based on module’s CSV reports.
Sending Email: Added the option to select the language for messages sent from the “Motion Detector” or “Problems Detector” modules. Previously, all messages were in English only.
Sending Email: Added the option to enable logging of the module’s operation. This will be a great tool to keep tabs on the stability of the module, especially if the program works offline, with notifications of critical events. To do this, use the “Record found issues into a log file” option in the module settings. By default, both errors and successful sending events will be logged, but you can choose to log only sending errors due to issues in communication with the sending server.
Problems Detector: New options have been added to fine-tune the “Camera image too dark” option, which will help you get notified if the camera becomes obscured, excluding false alarms.
Motion Detector: Improved selection of the detection zone in the Motion Detector if the aspect ratio in the low and the high resolution streams is different. Modules with a monitoring zone, including Motion Detector, will now show one for the stream that is selected for operation (by default, it is the Preview stream, and if the option “Use the high resolution stream from archive” is checked, then it will be the Archive stream).
Web Server: Optimized webRTC performance with the Edge browser.
Problems Detector: Added the ability to download the log file via the client. Now the log file can be obtained even with a remote connection.
Customization/rebranding: Fixed disappearance of the name of the customized version after updating Xeoma via the program menu.

Fixed the false “Server certificate is not trusted” error when connecting to a Xeoma server running on Android.
Fixed occasional crashes of the program when working with the log viewer dialog on the client, which occurred when there were many log files.
Fixed the issue where the size of the Xeoma window would not change on tablets running Windows OS or a Windows-powered computer with a touchscreen monitor.

Beta version Xeoma 23.3.22 (March 22, 2023):

Xeoma Pro: Added a unique feature to open recordings that are stored in a DVR or a camera’s SD card and play them in the Xeoma player. This new feature only works for ONVIF-compliant devices, of which we recommend ones made by HikVision. To open the “ONVIF archive” for a camera, connect it to Xeoma, go to Xeoma’s archive viewer by clicking the “Play” button for this camera, and select the “Play ONVIF archive” option in the archive viewer menu.
LDAP: Added an option to log in with LDAP user profile credentials through Xeoma’s web interface. Like with logging in through a web browser with a Xeoma’s user profile data, the LDAP user will see the cameras and features configured for their profile.
LDAP: Added LDAP integration with FreeIPA, a Linux-based identity management system similar to Microsoft’s Active Directory.
Mobile Notifications: Improved sending of mobile notifications on Android. Now, by clicking on the incoming notification, Xeoma opens the archive player directly on the event that triggered the notification.
Cross-Line Detector: Added the ability to work in conjunction with the “Face Recognition”, the “QR code recognition” and the “Text Recognition” modules. Connect the filter module from this list before the Cross-Line detector to keep counting only the required objects.
USB Joystick: A new joystick mode has been added, where you can set a button that will switch cameras in turn on the selected tab and return to the tab overview.
Archive player: Added reverse playback of recordings in Xeoma’s archive player. Available for both MJPEG and H264 recordings, including the “smaller” archive (lower quality saved with parallel recording) and simultaneous view of several archives.
Archive player: Added hotkeys for the new reverse playback function. Now you can use the keyboard’s “+” to engage regular forward playback, or “-” to enable reverse playback.
Archive player: Fixed long loading of records after restarting the server. Reading information about records from the database has been accelerated, so you can now enter the archive player much faster after restarting the server.
Export: Added a new format – wav – to the Export dialog of the Xeoma’s archive player. This format will help you export an extract with just sound, no video.
Archive: Improved auto-selection of remaining free disk space for records set with the global “Always leave free disk space” setting. Now, if the value of this setting has been changed manually, the newly set value will be used. If this is not done, then the automatically set value recommended by the program will be used.
Archive player: Improved frame-by-frame scrolling of recordings in Xeoma archive player. Now moving around has become more smooth and stable.
Archive player: Improved smoothness when dragging the slider on the timeline by ensuring all frames are displayed.
Secure connection: The “Enable secure https connection” option has been added to the “Web Server” module to enable connection encryption through the browser. Now secure connection can be selected directly in the settings, there is no need to configure it outside Xeoma, as before. Select the option in the module and use Xeoma’s self-signed certificate – or place your own SSL certificate in the path indicated next to the option (the path itself is not editable).
Added the option to view passwords hidden by asterisks. In order to view such a hidden password, click on the “crossed eye” icon in the right corner of the field. In order to hide the password back, click on the icon again (in the password display mode, the “crossed eye” changes its look to just “eye”). This is available in all dialogs where there are hidden passwords, both for the Administrator and for operators who have access to settings.
Eye Tracking: Added the option to save CSV reports that will have a date and time of triggering events. As always, these reports can be used for analysis, graphs building, or integration with third-party systems.
GPIO: Added the option to configure and use multiple pins at once.
Cross-Line Detector: Added a new option to display crossing statistics for a specified period. The calculation is based on module’s CSV reports.
Sending Email: Added the option to select the language for messages sent from the “Motion Detector” or “Problems Detector” modules. Previously, all messages were in English only.
Sending Email: Added the option to enable logging of the module’s operation. This will be a great tool to keep tabs on the stability of the module, especially if the program works offline, with notifications of critical events. To do this, use the “Record found issues into a log file” option in the module settings. By default, both errors and successful sending events will be logged, but you can choose to log only sending errors due to issues in communication with the sending server.
Problems Detector: New options have been added to fine-tune the “Camera image too dark” option, which will help you get notified if the camera becomes obscured, excluding false alarms.
Motion Detector: Improved selection of the detection zone in the Motion Detector if the aspect ratio in the low and the high resolution streams is different.

Motion Detector: fixed an occasional reset of the set sensitivity threshold value.
Fixed occasional crashes when CTRL+Z was used in edit boxes.

Remote access: Innovation in remote access from different networks: now Xeoma can do the client-to-server connection through P2P, without the need to have a ‘public’ IP address on the server. This new connection method is supported in all Xeoma editions (except for the Free edition that doesn’t support any type of remote access) and all supported operating systems. The technology is simple: an intermediary cloud server is used to interconnect the client and the server part, and right after connection they communicate directly, without sending camera streams, settings, etc. to the P2P intermediary. Read more here
Xeoma Pro: Added the new possibility to Xeoma’s PTZ control to rotate and zoom in the camera to an object or an area by click. Previously, this mechanism has been available in the ePTZ (digital zoom) feature exclusively; now it is available for cameras with PTZ capabilities. After clicking on a special button in Xeoma’s PTZ control, you will be able to select an area with a mouse (or click on a place) in camera image to have the PTZ camera rotate there and zoom in on it to fit the screen. This feature is available with the Xeoma Pro license. See more about all PTZ options in Xeoma here
Added switching to Trial versions for all Xeoma commercial editions (Xeoma Starter, Xeoma Lite, Xeoma Standard and Xeoma Pro) right from Xeoma interface. Previously, Xeoma could only be switched to the Trial version of the Xeoma Pro edition from within its interface. This change will come in handy if you are interested in a certain Xeoma edition, and would like to test if this edition satisfies your needs.
Motion Detector: For ONVIF-compliant cameras the new option is added to use a camera’s built-in motion detector instead of Xeoma’s. This will help to shift some of the CPU load on to the camera’s side or to get an alternative detector if Xeoma’s doesn’t suit you for any reason. Previously, this could have been done with the ‘Camera-Embedded Detector’ module; now it’s available right from the ‘Motion Detector’ module settings.
Terminal/console: added support for additional parameters that you can input while using the installation command in console. The parameters will be automatically added to the autostart script without the need for you to edit it manually any more, as it was the case before. For example, if -install -coreauto -serverport 8888 is executed, the autostart script will have the -serverport 8888 parameter added automatically. See supported console commands
Added hotkeys to quickly scale the Xeoma interface which previously has been possible only with the Layouts menu. Use a combination of CTRL and + or mouse wheel up to make all elements larger, and CTRL and – or mouse wheel down to make all elements smaller.
JSON API/Web Server: The broadcasting of archive recordings over RTSP that has been added in version 22.8.16 now works in 32-bit Linux systems as well.
RTSP Broadcasting: The ‘RTSP Broadcasting’ module now features the choice of a tool to use for broadcasts: the traditional ffserver that has more options and more operating systems supported, or the newer and more stable live555 that works only on 32- and 64-bit Windows and Linux.
Unitor: The ‘Unitor’ module now has the option to choose which of the combined cameras with support for PTZ should accept PTZ commands.
Telegram Bot Notifications: Improved stable work, fixed occasionally missing messages sent by the new ‘Telegram Bot Notifications’ module.
Multi-server mode: Added support for PTZ control for OMNY cameras.
Multi-server mode: Added support for PTZ presets as well as setting up speed of PTZ tours (as in the regular mode, a Xeoma Pro license is required for the PTZ presets and tours functionality).
Android: Optimized permissions for the client part in Xeoma Android app. Also, fixed the issue with no longer displaying the permission dialog after two rejections in OS Android 12.
Android: Optimized interface and its elements in Xeoma Android app. Now, using Xeoma in Android devices with a small screen is made far more convenient.
Fixed camera search at the first launch of the program. Previously, when Xeoma was launched for the first time and it was looking for cameras with the ‘Search by IP/password’ option, it might have missed cameras and find them only with the second search.
Web server: Enhanced Xeoma web interface. Fixed minor issues with browsers’ dark themes and with displaying some of the interface elements.
Web server: Download of the ‘Problems Detector’ log file through Xeoma web interface is made available again.
Fixed crash under MacOS 10.15 and up that would occur when access to the device’s USB camera was prohibited.
Fixed crash under Android when the Multi-server mode was used.
Fixed the issue with saving settings for a USB joystick control of PTZ cameras in the Multi-server mode.

If you need another language for Xeoma web portal in your project, please let us know!
SD card synchronization: Enhanced synchronization of archives with recordings in a camera’s SD card. Fixed gaps in recordings, and added statistics on SD card utilization – it is now available in the Statistics section of the ‘Preview and Archive’ module settings.
Universal Camera: the settings dialog of the ‘Universal Camera’ module now features a new option to open the camera’s web admin page in a default browser. Use this button to quickly apply some changes in camera settings through its browser admin panel (outside of Xeoma).
Xeoma Web Interface: Increased loading speed of lengthy archives in Xeoma web portal that is powered by the ‘Web Server’ module.
Xeoma Pro: Added a new ‘search_by_login_and_password’ command into Xeoma’s webAPI to launch search by IP address with set parameters.
Xeoma Pro: Remastered the ‘start_rtsp_archive=&archive=’ option for broadcast of archives through RTSP from Xeoma’s webAPI. With this command, the broadcast starts after connection to the stream, as opposed to the previously implemented start after command execution.
Scheduler: The Scheduler module now has a new option to stop fetching a camera stream if it’s non-working time according to the specified Scheduler settings. This option is a great aid in saving network bandwidth when the camera is not in use due to the schedule.
Multi-server mode: The multi-server mode now displays all camera groups even when the servers to connect to have the same IP address with different ports.
Multi-server mode: Added the option to control PTZ cameras with a joystick/control board even in the multi-server mode. More about this feature

Slip and Fall Detector: The ‘Slip and Fall Detector’ Additional module introduces higher-performing algorithms of detection of falls.
Safety Gear Detector: like many other intellectual features in Xeoma, the ‘Safety Gear Detector’ Additional module now has the visualization of detected objects available (frame around the object). This will help to instantly raise situational awareness with just one glance at the security monitor.
Xeoma Pro: The ‘ANPR‘ module now features a new ‘Vehicle pre-detection’ option that ensures that the neural networks in this module first locate a vehicle in the frame, and then proceed to look for a license plate within it. This method will facilitate combating frauds and provide higher performance of the algorithms.
JSON API: Xeoma API has been complemented with more commands: this time for adding or removing users (adduser= and removeuser=), or modification of user rights (getpermissions= and setpermissions=). See more in the Xeoma API page.
JSON API: a new command servertime= is added to Xeoma API that returns the server’s current time. The command will come in handy, for example, to establish the server time and then proceed with requesting archive extracts with the correct time.
JSON API: the newly introduced Xeoma API command start_rtsp_archive= will help retrieve an extract of an H264/H265 archive through RTSP. No transcoding is applied to the ‘original’ format of the recordings which means acceptable CPU load, as compared for example to the previously available Xeoma Pro’s ‘RTSP Broadcasting’ module that is mainly used for transcoding into RTSP. This new command will be useful in integrated systems with the need to display Xeoma recordings.
Users: Xeoma Lite and Xeoma Starter editions now also have the Users menu (Main menu > Remote Access > Users). This dialog can be used to change the Administrator password, set preferences for Xeoma interface and time, etc., i.e. all regular settings of the ‘Users’ window, except for user profiles which are still unavailable in these modes.
Web Server: improved Xeoma web interface. A new, more stylish design with better fonts replaced the old one, with the dark theme available in the menu.
Web Server webRTC broadcasting: users that have sound access restrictions can now receive and view webRTC broadcasts (without sound).
Multi-server mode: The interactive eMAP feature is now available in the Multi-Server mode. Now security operators can use the site floor plan with cameras on it to quickly jump to a triggered camera – even if they are connected to several servers at once.
Multi-server mode: fixed not saving Pages order in the upper Pages panel.
The Layouts menu once again has the possibility to lower the client window refreshing rate when needed (for example, in low bandwidth networks). Find this option in the ‘Window settings’ submenu.
HTTP Marking: marking can now be applied to high res H264/H265 streams in client parts when the ‘decoding on the client side’ option is enabled. Previously only the ‘Marking’ module’s date/time subtitles could be applied to streams during the ‘direct saving to the archive’ regime.
Linux: fixed issue with launching a shortcut for Xeoma client in Ubuntu 20 and up.
Import of settings and pages preferences: added a more informative explanation in errors at an attempt to import settings and pages preferences (for example, if the file is not found or is invalid).

Beta version Xeoma 22.6.28 (June, 29 2022):

Slip and Fall Detector: The ‘Slip and Fall Detector’ Additional module introduces higher-performing algorithms of detection of falls.
Safety Gear Detector: like many other intellectual features in Xeoma, the ‘Safety Gear Detector’ Additional module now has the visualization of detected objects available (frame around the object). This will help to instantly raise situational awareness with just one glance at the security monitor.
Xeoma Pro: The ‘ANPR‘ module now features a new ‘Vehicle pre-detection’ option that ensures that the neural networks in this module first locate a vehicle in the frame, and then proceed to look for a license plate within it. This method will facilitate combating frauds and provide higher performance of the algorithms.
JSON API: Xeoma API has been complemented with more commands: this time for adding or removing users (adduser= and removeuser=), or modification of user rights (getpermissions= and setpermissions=). See more in the Xeoma API page.
JSON API: a new command servertime= is added to Xeoma API that returns the server’s current time. The command will come in handy, for example, to establish the server time and then proceed with requesting archive extracts with the correct time.
JSON API: the newly introduced Xeoma API command start_rtsp_archive= will help retrieve an extract of an H264/H265 archive through RTSP. No transcoding is applied to the ‘original’ format of the recordings which means acceptable CPU load, as compared for example to the previously available Xeoma Pro’s ‘RTSP Broadcasting’ module that is mainly used for transcoding into RTSP. This new command will be useful in integrated systems with the need to display Xeoma recordings.
Users: Xeoma Lite and Xeoma Starter editions now also have the Users menu (Main menu > Remote Access > Users). This dialog can be used to change the Administrator password, set preferences for Xeoma interface and time, etc., i.e. all regular settings of the ‘Users’ window, except for user profiles which are still unavailable in these modes.
Web Server: improved Xeoma web interface. A new, more stylish design with better fonts replaced the old one, with the dark theme available in the menu.
Web Server webRTC broadcasting: users that have sound access restrictions can now receive and view webRTC broadcasts (without sound).
Multi-server mode: The interactive eMAP feature is now available in the Multi-Server mode. Now security operators can use the site floor plan with cameras on it to quickly jump to a triggered camera – even if they are connected to several servers at once.
Multi-server mode: fixed not saving Pages order in the upper Pages panel.
The Layouts menu once again has the possibility to lower the client window refreshing rate when needed (for example, in low bandwidth networks). Find this option in the ‘Window settings’ submenu.
HTTP Marking: marking can now be applied to high res H264/H265 streams in client parts when the ‘decoding on the client side’ option is enabled. Previously only the ‘Marking’ module’s date/time subtitles could be applied to streams during the ‘direct saving to the archive’ regime.

Connection Dialog: fixed the issue with not saving password in the Connection Dialog despite the ticked ‘Save password’checkbox.

Object Recognizer: a new, higher-performing method of object recognition has been introduced in the ‘Object Recognizer’ Additional module for systems utilizing NVidia graphics cards with support for CUDA technology. All you need to do is tick the new option in the ‘Object Recognizer’ module settings, and you will get higher recognition accuracy of the same object types for the same price.
Object Recognizer: like many other Xeoma intellectual modules, the ‘Object Recognizer’ Additional module now features CSV reports that log date/time and what type of objects are recognized in the selected vision field, and the accuracy percentage of recognition.
Additional module ANPR: Japan is added to the list of countries Xeoma’s Additional module ANPR works for! Which makes it 13 countries – from Kazakhstan to the USA – now supported, all for one price, no fee per image or monthly subscription needed. The Japan option is available for a limited range of processors (the requirements are similar to China license plate recognition). See more in the Additional ANPR promo page
Archive: added the high-demand feature to save a smaller copy of the archive recordings along with the main archive. Its most common use is to provide a longer retention time for video evidence while optimizing the disk space requirements. Besides, the smaller archive will be a great aid in reducing the CPU load during simultaneous view of several archives (a feature available in Xeoma Pro), and in exporting pieces of important video in a tight network. See more here
Xeoma Pro webAPI: a new feature to use a webApi command to initiate search by recognized objects in a camera’s archive recordings and send the resulting file to the specified FTP server has been added. Available with a Xeoma Pro license.
Layouts: Added a new Layouts mode – automated switching to a Page with an active (triggered) camera on it. A triggered camera is one that has ongoing recording process at the moment, or one that has warning messages displayed for (for example, Problems Detector messages). Enable it in the Layouts menu (‘window’ icon in the lower icons panel).
Rebranding: the rebranding tool now features an opportunity to change the default address for the “Cloud in 1 click” service. Use the “CloudServiceAddress” parameter in the “oem_info.xml” file to change the address.
Xeoma Pro Your Cloud: a new parameter “ListOfEnabledModules” is now available in user configs and the main (global) config. The parameter can be used to list modules that are allowed to be used by a subscriber or subscribers. Formerly, we used to have a parameter utilized to prohibit modules only but the new one is more convenient for minimalist subscription plans where just a few modules need to be allowed.
Xeoma Pro Your Cloud: a new parameter “EditArchivePaths” is now available in user configs and the main (global) config. The parameter can be used to allow subscribers to input the path to save recordings to. Use the parameter for a subscriber or subscribers, and they will see a corresponding field in the ‘Preview and Archive’ module settings.
Archive: added the option to instruct Xeoma not to create missing folders from the specified archive storage path. This modification will be mainly useful in Unix systems and when a disk is mounted in a specified folder by the user. You can enable this feature with the corresponding option in the ‘Preview and Archive’ module settings.
Users: the Users dialog now asks for a confirmation of your choice to remove a user profile. This is introduced to help avoid deletion of user profiles that are actually in use, by mistake.
Xeoma Pro webAPI: Fixed response to the http://IP:10090/?archive_list= webApi request. Previous versions of Xeoma might have had archives that are no longer used in Xeoma listed in the response to this request. Starting from this version, the response will only list archives that are actually used.
PTZ: Fixed the issue with PTZ cameras that support 360-degree rotation where automated rotation would suddenly stop during a long turn.
Xeoma Pro Your Cloud: Fixed a web interface issue where some cameras might have been missing from a subscriber’s web interface if the password had special symbols.
Fixed the issue where there was a delay in setting proper access rights in Linux systems when a camera’s archive folder was first created, or a new day subfolder was first created, which often resulted in issues when accessed from external programs.
Xeoma Pro Your Cloud: fixed intermittent application of the LoginPasswordDelimiter parameter.
Universal Camera: fixed gradually increasing latency as compared to the live video feed caused by the ‘Buffering’ option in the ‘Universal Camera’ module settings.
PTZ: fixed disappearance of the PTZ control for added PTZ cameras after server is restarted.
Accelerated camera search launched from the ‘Universal Camera’ module settings.
Autostart settings. Fixed the issue where commands from Xeoma’s Autostart settings (Install submenu) have not been executed.
Multiserver mode: Fixed the issue where connection was denied for all servers in the list of Multiserver mode if one of them was a Xeoma Cloud server address.
Fixed false triggering of modules connected in the chain after filters (for example, a ‘Motion Detector’) when there were some issues with the preview stream from the camera.

Added new module “Mobile Notifications” that allows to receive notifications in mobile devices running iOS (iPhone, iPad) or Android. The advantage of the new module is that it doesn’t require the app to be running in your Android/iOS device to be able to notify you of the alerts (unlike the simpler module for mobile notifications “Client Window Pop-Up” that requires the app to be always running to push alerts). With the new module you will see alerts from selected servers as iPhone’s, iPad’s standard notifications – on the lock screen, in the Banners area, or in the Notification Center.
For Android this module will now be used instead of the now-discontinued “Client Window Pop-Up” module. Mobile notifications in Android can appear in their usual form: as an icon in status bar, as a more explicit notification in the notification drawer, as a floating window over other apps (heads-up notification) in unlocked phone (ringtones and vibration for Android version 7.1 and lower), as notifications on the secure lock screen, or as a colored “notification badge” (a “notification dot”) on the app launcher icon.
The module is available in Xeoma Standard and Xeoma Pro editions.

Additional module “Object Recognition” now offers the possibility to select the desired recognition accuracy level for each type of object separately. Now you can flexibly set what percentage of recognition accuracy suits you for type of object. For example, when you need more accuracy for recognition of cars of various form-factors, and lower accuracy is enough for the lower-priority task of recognizing people.
Additional module “QR Code Recognition” now can recognize bar codes of all known formats (code-128, code-39, code-93, EAN-13, EAN-8, ITF, PDF-417, RSS expanded and others), in addition to QR codes.
“Face Recognition“: new option “Auto-learning by found faces” added for recognition using the artificial intelligence option. This functionality allows you to automatically train the program to include detected people in a particular group by frequency of detection (for example, employees, loyal visitors, new guests, etc.).
Additional module “Move to PTZ preset” now has the possibility to setup the tour (patrol) mode for ONVIF cameras that support touring, directly from the module’s interface.
Additional module “Move to PTZ preset” now offers the possibility to select the module to which the signal is transmitted when the selected preset is triggered is added. Thus, in one module “Move to PTZ preset”, you can configure various presets and determine to which of the following modules the signal from each will be transmitted.
PRO: added detection of speed limit violation. The combination of the new PRO modules “ANPR Speed Sender” and “ANPR Speed Receiver” calculates the time that a vehicle takes to travel the distance between two virtual points, and if it’s lower than a set time, the module is triggered. More details
PRO: the “ANPR” module now offers visualization of the license plate location on preview. With this feature it will be more convenient to configure the module to work together with other modules – for example, with the “Cross-Line Detector” or “PTZ Tracking”.
PRO: the “ANPR Sending to FTP” module now offers the ability to choose what pictures to send (either a frame with a machine, or a frame with a license plate, or both), whether to send this data in archive or as separate files, and also to select the sending/saving interval.

Added the option for simultaneous export of archives that are viewed in the multi-archive viewing mode.
Added new “programdir [DirPath]” program startup key. Running Xeoma with this key will allow you to change the storage location of the program files without installation.
Motion Detector: added the “Ignore shadows” option. This functionality allows you to reduce false positives by shadows of various objects.
Improvements:
-“Universal camera”: added automatic selection of the “Decoding of key frames” option which allows you to determine the number of key frames in the stream and only reduces them to decode the processor of the server.
-Added new “-archivecache [DirPath]” console parameter. This parameter allows the system to use a folder for temporary storing of archive recordings files until they are fully recorded. Using this parameter allows to significantly reduce disk fragmentation and therefore the load on it. Useful for a large number of cameras.
-Optimization of work with massive archive recordings.
-Optimization of work with a client with a large number of cameras on a weak computer. To maintain performance, the frames-per-second rate is lowered in the Main Window (Multi-Camera View).

The function is especially in demand in the “Safe City” systems, in the search for missing or wanted people, as well as in commercial areas when investigating incidents. This feature is purchased separately and activated over the Xeoma Standard or Xeoma Pro licenses. Available for testing in the trial version of Xeoma: the search will yield only one latest incident where this person (face) was detected.
Added search through archive recordings by object types for the previously released Additional module “Object Recognition”. Find this option in the Xeoma Archive Viewer menu. If object visualization is enabled, the recognized objects will also be visualized.
PRO: Added the long-awaited synchronization of archives with the SD card of an IP camera that supports the ONVIF protocol. If the connection with such a camera is interrupted for a while, the recording of events will continue to the camera’s memory card, and after the connection is restored, this missing segment will be downloaded from the camera’s video storage to the Xeoma archive. It works only with ONVIF cameras. Configure this feature in the “Preview and Archive” module settings.
PRO: Added failover (server backup) for the Xeoma Pro Your Cloud mode. Before this improvement you could do that with system tools. Now there’s the built-in Xeoma feature for such “hot” and “cold” servers. See more about Failover here.
PRO: Added LDAP support for devices under ARM architecture. Now all the advantages of active directories can be used on ARM devices like Raspberry, too.
PRO: License Plate Recognition: added the ability to set the number of frames the iANPR utility has to process. If it is not possible to limit the maximum speed of the traffic flow, this new setting, if used properly, can help avoid blurred frames, and thus aid in higher successful number recognition rate.
PRO: Improved search for license plates: now you can run the search through archive recordings for a license number directly from the ANPR log of recognized license plates.
PRO: Xeoma Pro Your Cloud: added the option to limit number of user-created interactive E-Maps.
Added the ability to automatically place active cameras (cameras with triggered detectors) in a separate tab. Try this option in the menu “Layouts” -> “Manage layouts” -> “Larger grid mode” -> “Show only active cameras”. This innovation will allow you to use one of the monitors for displaying streams from cameras where alarm events occurred. The camera disappears from this tab in 10 seconds after the alarm event is finished.
Added long-awaited export of the archive in the timelapse form. Now you can specify the desired speed (frame rate) of the resulting piece before the export starts. This faster playback timelapse effect will help you quickly evaluate what happened outside the Xeoma Archive Viewer. If viewed in the Xeoma’s Archive Viewer, you can use the flexible playback speed to achieve the timelapse effect. This effect is widely popular for visualizing long processes: for monitoring of building erection, or in the scientific fields for watching over plant growth, chemical reactions, etc.
Added digital zoom for moving objects. Now, even if your camera does not have the PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) functions, you can use the ability to automatically track objects or people in the field of view of the camera. Find this option in Main menu -> “Zoom” -> “Automatic objects tracking”. If there are several objects in the frame, the automatic tracking still works flawlessly and monitors the largest object.
Added the ability to display a high resolution stream when viewing all cameras – including on mobile devices. Turn this smart option on in “Layouts” -> “Client decoding settings” -> “Video decoding on the client side for live preview”) and select the settings that suit you and your device best with the slider below.
Multi-server mode: added the ability to use digital zoom. Now you can zoom in on the parts of a camera image in real-time and in the archive, even if you are connected to several servers at once.
Added the ability to download CSV reports from the server via client connection. Now you can get reports from smart modules wherever you are, even if you are connected to the server remotely. Perfect for verticals where mobility and fast assessing of work results is important; for those who want to have access to information anytime, anywhere.
Problem Detector: Added new camera defocus option. Now the program can automatically notify you when camera is out of focus suddenly. This new feature is a great addition for stand-alone systems that work for months without human supervision.
Added support for cameras that use the PSIA protocol, an ONVIF equivalent, which ensures successful synchronization of devices from different manufacturers within a unified system.
Added export of still pictures in PNG and BMP formats (in addition to previously available JPEG). Now you can export a snapshot of the archive recording in these common formats right from the archive viewer
Added the ability to assign access rights to groups of cameras. Ideal for systems with hundreds of cameras. Now you do not need to manually set the access rights to each camera separately. You can divide cameras into groups on any basis (for example, by their geo location) and assign rights to new and old operators to this or that set of cameras. Look for this option in the Main Menu -> Remote Access -> Users.
Added the ability to copy layouts and tabs from one client to another. Now you can share your tabs and camera order configuration with other users of your video surveillance system. Save it to a file and upload it for any other account through the Layouts menu.
Added the ability to prohibit users to change camera order, leaving the possibility to set camera order only to the administrator. Search for this feature in Main Menu -> Remote Access -> Users.
Increased efficiency of sending JPEG images with the %JPEG% ({JPEG}) macro due to getting rid of unnecessary coding.
Added new archive playback speeds. Now you can view your archives 60 and even 900 times faster. Suitable for systems with a lot of records to watch really quickly.
Added support for two options of overwriting the archive: by calendar days and by actual content. In the first case, the old recordings will be overwritten by new ones, for example, after 7 days have passed since the recording date, even if less recordings were made actually (for example, if motion detection was used). In the second case, the actual filling of the archive will be considered: the records will be overwritten, for example, when there are 7 days-worth of actual records stored.
Added the ability to request test licenses of the program directly from its interface.
Free rebranding: Added the ability to fill in the list of servers for clients to connect to with the <ServersFileName> parameter. Use this option to provide operators with a customized version of Xeoma with a list of servers to connect to already filled-in.
Added the ability to edit created PTZ tours. Learn more about PTZ presets and guard/patrol tours here.
Also, these issues were fixed:
Fixed possible crash when using webrtc in Xeoma Pro Your Cloud.
Fixed problem with recording archives in case of problems with the database.
Fixed possible failure of the client part when CUDA hardware acceleration is engaged.

21 March 2019: New version Xeoma Beta 19.3.21:

Fixed some bugs, enhanced stability.

7 March 2019: New version Xeoma Beta 19.3.7:

Additional module: Added new module “FaceID”. This module recognizes human faces in camera image and compares them to faces from database (a remote LDAP database or a database stored on the same machine). This module only works if connected after the QR Code Recognition or Smart Card Reader modules. QR Code Reader or Smart Card Reader get information about person’s ID and send this meta data to FaceID that searches the database for the person’s face with this information. It can be used in complex access control systems in restricted entry enterprises, in university campuses, in private residences, wherever greater level of security and identity verification of a pass holder is required. This module is purchased separately and activated over the Xeoma Standard or Xeoma Pro licenses. Available for testing in a trial version of Xeoma for 1 hour, after that reconfiguration is required.
Additional module: Added new module “QR Code recognition”. The QR Code Recognition module is a filter module that scans the camera picture for QR code and when finds one, sends the video signal further along the scheme. This module is usually used in chain before the FaceID module which can compare face in camera view with a face of the person identified by that QR code. The module also works with the “Application Runner” module where it can send information about the QR code using the %TEXT% macro. It can be used in complex access control systems in restricted entry enterprises, in university campuses, in private residences, wherever greater level of security and identity verification of a pass holder is required. This module is purchased separately and activated over the Xeoma Standard or Xeoma Pro licenses. Available for testing in a trial version of Xeoma for 1 hour, after that reconfiguration is required.
Additional module: Added new module “SmartHome – RIF+”. This module works with RIF+ automation devices. Various sensors can be connected to the device, and the module can receive their alarms. This module is purchased separately and activated over the Xeoma Standard or Xeoma Pro licenses. Available for testing in a trial version of Xeoma for 1 hour, after that reconfiguration is required.
Additional module: Added new module “Smart-card reader”. The module receives information about the card holder from Omnikey access card readers and passes it further along the chain to the FaceID module to compare the photo from the database with the face of the person in front of the camera. It can be used in complex access control systems in restricted entry enterprises, in university campuses, in private residences, wherever greater level of security and identity verification of a pass holder is required. The module also works with the “Application Runner” module where it can send information about the access card using the %TEXT% macro. This module is purchased separately and activated over the Xeoma Standard or Xeoma Pro licenses. Available for testing in a trial version of Xeoma for 1 hour, then reconfiguration is required.
Additional module: Added new module “Camera-Embedded Detector”. This module can use the built-in detectors and sensors of IP cameras that support the ONVIF protocol, as well as send commands to the camera. With this module in use, you can configure analytics rules in your camera, and stop using Xeoma detectors thus shifting some of the server load to the camera side. This module is purchased separately and activated over the Xeoma Standard or Xeoma Pro licenses. Available for testing in a trial version of Xeoma for 1 hour, then reconfiguration is required.
Additional module: Added new module “Moving to PTZ preset“. When this module received alarms from previous modules in the chain, it can move a selected camera to a pre-defined position. The camera must support PTZ controls though ONVIF protocol. This module is purchased separately and activated over the Xeoma Standard or Xeoma Pro licenses. Available for testing in a trial version of Xeoma for 1 hour, then reconfiguration is required.
Added the ability to search for a person through archive recordings by uploading a photo. The search can be performed in archive recordings of one camera or several at once. To start the search, go to the built-in Xeoma archive viewer’s menu, select the Search by photo option, and upload the photo for search from your device. The function is especially in demand in the “Safe City” systems, in the search for missing or wanted people, as well as in commercial areas when investigating incidents. This feature is purchased separately and activated over the Xeoma Standard or Xeoma Pro licenses. Available for testing in the trial version of Xeoma: the search will yield only one latest incident where this person (face) was detected.

Also, these issues were fixed:
Fixed possible crash when using webrtc in Xeoma Pro Your Cloud.
Fixed problem with recording archives in case of problems with the database.
Fixed possible failure of the client part when CUDA hardware acceleration is engaged.

Added a new “Object Recognizer” module. The module can automatically classify objects in the camera field of view (person, car, animal, bird, motorcycle, etc.) and respond – or ignore – to selected types of objects. “Object Recognizer” is ideal in environments where there is movement expected in the field of view, and you need the system to respond (or not respond) only to a certain type of object. The module is available for testing only in the trial version of the program.
Added a new “Face Detector (Emotions)” module. The module can automatically recognize human emotions (happiness, fear, neutrality, sadness, etc.) in faces appearing in the camera frame, and display them on the screen, save to a spreadsheet report or send to a third-party program for processing. It can also be used as an alternative to the current Face Detector for detection of faces (but not recognition), or in conjunction with it, for example, to determine the emotions only of known or unknown persons. The module is available for testing only in the trial version of the program.
Xeoma Pro: ANPR. Added the ability to run a search for numbers directly from the log of found license plates.
Xeoma Pro: Added the ability to record multiple audio tracks from several microphones for the same video stream (available for recordings in in the .xem format);
Xeoma Pro: Added the ability to export video with sound recording from several microphones (multi-channel sound) in the exported file.
Xeoma Pro: Added the ability to edit module settings using the JSON API. Now you can change settings of Xeoma modules and manage them from automation systems. Read more
Xeoma Pro: Added presets and automatic patrol for PTZ cameras with support for ONVIF. Now you have the opportunity to set up certain positions (“presets”) for ONVIF-compliant PTZ cameras, and establish a route of a “guard tour”. This way the camera will rotate automatically along the configured “tour”. Watch the video, read the article.
Android: a new client-only app is released. It doesn’t require permissions as the server+client version does. Now you have the choice to download either only a client Xeoma Android app to connect to your remote Xeoma server, or a full (server and client) app in one. Available for download on our site or from Google Play.
Optimized hardware acceleration and increased decoding speed on video cards using CUDA, including support for decoding h265-formats.
Improved rewriting archives for the option “Always leave free space” in the “Preview and Archive” module. Implemented an even removal of all archives by days.
Improved operation of the “Object Detection” module in conjunction with the “Cross-Line Detector” module. Now people walking near each other are detected separately correctly.
Optimized buffering option: the option will be turned off by default for new installations. If you’re updating from an older version where buffering has been enabled, it will stay enabled. Buffering should be enabled when smoother realtime viewing is required. The option can be selected in the “Layouts” menu (setting for client/server) or in the “Universal Camera” module settings (for separate cameras). A higher RAM load and image delay – as compared to image in camera admin page – are to be expected when the option is engaged.
ANPR: Added support for iANPR version 1.793 in ARM versions. Better recognition accuracy and new features for recognition of CIS license plate numbers.
ANPR: Added support for the new openALPR version for Windows. In it, the plates of the following countries are recognized: Argentina, Brazil, China, Indonesia, India, Japan, Thailand, South Africa, Saudi Arabia.

Added IPv6 Internet Protocol support. Now you can work not just with IPv4 addresses (addresses that look like a combination of numbers separated by dots, for example 11.222.33.4444) but also with IPv6 addresses that look like a combination of digits separated by colons, for example 2001:0db8:11a3:09d7::765d;
Hardware keys support added;
PRO: added automatic PTZ-patrol. Now Xeoma PTZ control has more options to help you create your own presets for an automated guard tour for your PTZ camera;
Archive time of counting was improved. Now it’s not the actual time of the file creation, but the total duration of the archive that counts. For example you have an hour-worth of recordings made 32 days ago, and 1 hours of recordings made today. This will be counted as 2 days of recordings instead of 32 days as before. In this case, if the archive retention period is set to 30 days, your old records will not be overwritten;
The “Image refresh interval” option in the “Archive” module was fixed. Now when you selecte large values the function works correctly;
Fixed xem archive deleting via interface problem. Now, when deleting, the correct interval is selected;
