1.4 Firmware
The table below lists the firmware versions which are used in the BVMS system test.
Device Compatibility
Up until some years ago, new released cameras, encoders, domes and decoders that are introduced into market
after a BVMS release could not be connected to an existing BVMS version because these cameras where not
known to the BVMS. In the BVMS 4.5.1, a new concept was introduced. This concept treats Bosch video
encoders and decoders as generic devices, and automatically recognizes specific device functionality (for
example the number of streams, relays and inputs). Based on this information the, at that time, unknown device is
added to the system and can be used by the operator. This document, which can be found in the Bosch Building
Technologies community, provides a detailed description of this functionality: BVMS - Device compatibility.

BVMS 9.0 - Release notes 11 of 70
ID Subject Description
172229 Streaming When using a very long GOP (up to 255) the operator client needs to load the
entire GOP in order to display the right image. This will cause an additional load
on the network and storage, which makes long GOPs less suitable for low-
bandwidth environments in which the operator wants to quickly browse through
video. Bosch recommends reducing the GOP length to 30 in this scenario.
195698 Decoder The Analogue Monitor Group (AMG) control has been moved from an fixed area
of the operator client to an image-pane based control. When a BVMS system is
upgraded, and using AMG, the control should be added to the logical tree to
ensure operators have access to the AMG functionality after the upgrade.
192510 General Due to the upgrade to Microsoft SQL Server 2017 BVMS 9.0 cannot be installed
on Microsoft Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. Additionally the BVMS set-
up size has increased.
192510 General When upgrading an existing BVMS version to BVMS 9.0, the set-up needs to be
manually restarted after the installation of Microsoft SQL Server 2017 has
completed and the server has been restarted.

the digital monitor wall. This only works when the sequence is controlled from
the analog monitor group.
189289 Streaming B-frames will only be enabled on encoders which explicitly support this and are
running FW 6.40 or newer.
191197 Storage All LUNs that are scanned on an iSCSI target are added to the configuration.
186267 / 189329 Security HTTPS encryption between DVRs and BVMS system components is only
applicable for "control" traffic, not for video streams.
189681 Connectivity When connecting to a DIVAR Hybrid and Network in a routed/NAT setup, using a
different port than 443 or 80, video (live and recording) will not be shown.

Hardware requirements
Bosch strongly urges customers to use the driver versions mentioned above. This ensures that the software can
perform its task reliably.
161444 FIXED: For some profiles, the default value for target bit rate is higher than the value of the maximum bit
rate.
170208 FIXED: Instead of "freezing" the (live) video when the network experiences packet loss, the video will now
be decoded on best-effort. As a result, network issues are shown to the operator as artifacts.
183720 The performance estimations of some GPUs are not fully correct, which could lead to a performance
decrease compared to CPU decoding. GPU decoding can be disabled as a work-around. The exact
impact is listed in the BVMS project checklist.
183162 In some situations connecting to a DIVAR Hybrid or Network may take longer than 20 seconds.
172618 The Netapp FAS 2040 cannot be configured from the BVMS Configuration Client.
183179/183372 In some situations MPEG4 connected VSG cameras cannot be replayed anymore.
184192 The SSH tunneling protocol cannot be used to connect the BVMS Configuration Client to the BVMS
Management server.
184327 When the language of the operating system is set to Turkish, the Bosch Video Stitcher cannot be
licensed. Please set the operating system language to English.
182788 When firmware 6.40 or 6.41 is used on the camera, video authentication will not work. Keep
firmware 6.32 if this functionality is used.
182804 The input states of a Bosch DIVAR 400 and DIVAR 600 are not monitored.
81663 ANR enabled cameras, or local storage cameras, are not able to replay video if any live or user
password is set.
157312 Forensic search is not possible on video footage exported from BVMS.
179879 When the "access protection enforcement" of a Bosch encoder (running firmware 6.40 or newer) is
enabled, the video cannot be displayed on decoders. In order to work-around the issue a "user"
password needs to be set on the encoder, and the "destination" password needs to be set on the
decoder. The user and destination password needs to match.

ID Description
171880 When an encoder is configured with invalid (definition can be found in the configuration manual)
password characters a pre-set will not be triggered.
170401 Due to the migration to the 64-bit software architecture 32-bit CameoSDK applications cannot
connect to the BVMS 8.0 management server.
169982 The OIDs of SNMP traps might be shifted after upgrading to BVMS 8.0. The alarms configured in the
receiving system need to be adjusted to the new OIDs.
171856 After locking the pc, and logging in again, the Operator Client can crash when using non-tested
Nvidia drivers. This problems has been confirmed by Nvidia and Bosch strongly recommends using
the tested Nvidia driver version mentioned earlier in this document.
172049 The motion+ search algorithm is only available for analogue cameras connected to a DIVAR Network
or Hybrid.
164871 DIVAR AN, Network and Hybrid devices show the wrong interval in the time-line for protected and
restricted video.
156070 After changing the IP address of a camera from the BVMS Config Client the VRM service needs to be
stopped, the VRM config.xml needs to be removed, and the VRM service needs to be restarted.
165472 / 173637 Authentication problems are known when using Axis cameras combined with BVMS. Axis has
released new firmware to mitigate this problem. The recommended firmware can be found on
http://ipp.boschsecurity.com/bvms
156105 / 167598 BVMS is not able to use the transcoding resources offered by the Videojet XTC transcoder.
167294 In some situations decoding problems might arise when trying to decode a Hirschmann encoder.

134161 • The various manufacturers provide information on how to set up the camera so that it can be
used as an ONVIF camera. This information can be found in the Interface Guide on the
www.ONVIF.org website.
• The ONVIF-implementation has been reworked in Bosch VMS in order for the Client to be more
robust and tolerant. This may though lead to changed behavior with existing installations
containing ONVIF cameras already. If you have already some ONVIF cameras connected to
former Bosch VMS (<6.0) and you cannot find them in the Bosch VMS 6.0 list (Bosch VMS IPP
Web-page), please verify the functions on a Bosch VMS 6.0 Test-system first before you
upgrade a system on the customer site.
• The limits regarding the mapping of ONVIF files are described in the Bosch VMS Pre-sales
guide.
• Configuration of ONVIF cameras from within Bosch VMS Configuration Client offers a wide
range of settings to configure ONVIF cameras in accordance with the ONVIF Standard. It is
though not ensured, that all cameras support the configuration, since the scope is subject of the
implementation of the standard in each ONVIF Camera model.
• Any message "Bad request" during configuration of ONVIF cameras means that the camera
refused the entered value or data. Please contact the camera vendor for support.
134164 Camera capabilities/ parameters (vendor, etc...) are empty when adding ONVIF Encoder manually without

69451, 70813 Old FAS without wildcard support are not supported by transcoder.
ID Description
104774 Known behavior in Bosch VMS, yet new for the integration with intrusion panels:
• When Management Server is down or not up and running when an intrusion detection point is in
alarm state, Bosch VMS is not able to display the alarm or get it later on.
• As it is not possible to retrieve the information on how many keypads are used, BVMS
Configuration Client always shows the maximum number per default even if less are connected.
• To avoid missing that intrusion alarms are not logged, set the debounce time to 0.
• When a user enters a valid passcode a second time after access was already granted with this
passcode, an error message is displayed in the keypad. But this error cannot be sent to Bosch
VMS. (Note: Entering a wrong passcode is displayed in the Alarm List!).
n/a Bosch VMS does not configure the panel, it only retrieves data.
Avoid multiple connections with different tools to the same panel. When a panel is connected to Bosch
VMS, you cannot establish a connection to this panel with RPS.
Maximum number of panels connected to BVMS is 20. Total event load of all panels must not exceed 100
events/minute.
ID Description
110545, 110582 When applying changes to panel points (e.g. using the "Copy to all" feature) on the event settings page it
takes a very long time (minutes). Recommendation: Make changes in smaller portions, e.g. 200 at a time.

ID Description
93591, 68263 When a configuration from a previous Bosch VMS version is imported, new events that did not exist in the
previous version, do not appear. To get the new events, you must manually activate the configuration and
restart the Central Server service.
71354 If you use a Management Server with multiple network adapters, it can happen that the time
synchronization of encoders and decoders does not work correctly. To avoid issues ensure that the IP
address of the time synchronization server is configured in the Management Server configuration file
(TimeServerIPAddress in the app-config file CentralServer.exe.config).
71354 Whenever you have two or more network addresses you need to make sure that the time server entry in
the Management Server configuration is set to the correct IP address.
8.9.13 Migration
ID Description
115289 Reference image: The default setting has changed with FW 6.10. The whole camera image is defined as
sensitive area. Use Reference image mask to exclude areas that are irrelevant. Note: Tamper configuration
of previous FW 5.93 is lost as soon as configuring a new area.
92820 Old elements.bvms (< 3.0.0) cannot be migrated if .NET 3.5 is not installed.
82945, 77484 For projects, that used dual recording or failover recording workaround prior to Bosch VMS 5.0: Respective
licenses are needed per channel for dual recording and failover recording. Commercial solution might be
requested from BU-ESS/MKP1.1 in case, that new licenses cannot be sold. After licensing, the VRM
configuration needs to be imported into Bosch VMS by context menu on an empty VRM node in
Configuration Client.
69514 Record AAC does not work. Encoders will automatically use G.711 to record audio.
n/a NVIF cameras: After migration from an earlier version to Bosch VMS 5.0 or later, ensure that the firmware
of the cameras is updated to the latest version. Otherwise it can happen that the cameras do not function
correctly.
8.9.14 Miscellaneous
ID Description
109562 Windows media player only capable to display UHD video exports, when K-lite codec pack is
installed. .Alternatively use VLC player to view UHD camera exports.
102969 Bosch VMS pre-alarm default is set to be 10 seconds. When a user updates from a previous version to 5.5.,
the system behavior might change due to the fact that depending on the camera capabilities, the pre-
alarm recording might now record in the RAM after update (thus not shown in Timeline any more).
91046 ASF exports are not possible for resolutions higher than HD (1920x1080).

ID Description
85501 Debounce time for Virtual Input Data has been set to 0 to prevent loosing events when used with
additional data.Please set the debounce time to 0 when upgrading from an earlier version and using
additional data.
76527, 77159 In previous BVMS version < 5.0 the "MON+CAM" commands referred to the logical numbers in Bosch VMS,
not the numbers used by the Allegiant Matrix. This has been changed in BVMS 5.0. Instructions for
customers, that rely on the "wrong" previous behavior of "MON+CAM" and want to reactivate the former
behavior (swapped parameters):
On the Management Server machine:
1. Stop the Management Server service
2. Open BvmsCentralServer.exe.config
3. Uncomment line <!----> i.e. remove
4. Save changed BvmsCentralServer.exe.config
5. Start the Management Server service

can be used. The Enterprise user LDAP configuration is always ignored.
55737 Bosch VMS does not support an LDAP system with more than 1000 User Groups for LDAP servers
supporting protocol version 2 only.
54600 If the number of entries in the Alarm List becomes too large (>1000), Operator Client runs possibly very
slow.
28672 In Operator Client the permissions for sequences are ignored for sequences placed on maps.
20283 The user can access a sequence for which the permission was removed. This happens when the sequence
has been saved as Favorite earlier.
n/a Bosch VMS does not support B-frames. This may slightly reduce the image quality in the recording. If
needed, please increase the bit rate in the profile settings in encoder to get the quality configured in the
profile.

address is not transferred when the MVS becomes online again. Please perform a configuration change
and activate. For example you can change the Day schedule.
n/a Web-Client works well with IE 11. It has also been tested with Firefox 30, Chrome 36 and Safari 7.0.5. These
versions show some limitations in the PTZ functionality of an Image pane.
8.9.16 NVR
ID Description
91302 The Bosch VMS NVR is not supported by Windows 7 or 8.1 and thus not supported in Bosch VMS 5.0
anymore.VIDOS NVR is not supported in Bosch VMS 5.0 anymore.
8.9.17 ONVIF
Note: Many ONVIF features are optional and their availability depends on the feature set of the currently used ONVIF
device.
ID Description
105655 To set up ONVIF event mapping please adjust the ONVIF section in the BVMS log config file
(%programfiles(x86)%\Bosch\VMS\AppData\Server\CentralServer\BVMSLogCfg.xml) to retrieve the
needed values for the corresponding camera type.To avoid issues, please copy this file as backup and edit
it then. Exchange „WARN" with „DEBUG".
102104 When you configure two ONVIF encoders with same IP but different credentials, the state icons in the
Device Tree gets mixed up. Please ensure to provide consistent settings (for example credentials) for all
instances of a single camera.
93295 Aux commands for focus and Iris is not yet supported for ONVIF cameras.
69272 VIDEOJET Decoder 7000 supports ONVIF via VSG, VIDEOJET 3000 does not.

BVMS 9.0 - Release notes 56 of 70
ID Description
117728 It is not possible to save an image on a PC without printer driver. Note: Windows 8.1 and 7 come with a
printer driver pre-installed. In case Windows Storage Server 2012 is used, Operator can activate the
Microsoft XPS Document Writer (without Administrator permissions).
110468 Encrypted export: Disable encryption in the export dialog if at least one camera of a Management Server
running a previous Bosch VMS version has been selected.
106377 Under rare conditions with certain local security policies in place, Windows starts self repairing the
Autodesk Review installation when Operator Client is started. In this case insert the Bosch VMS Setup DVD.
93193 Operator Client can terminate unexpectedly when camera sequences are running and the computer is
locked, for example by pressing "Windows-key + L". Please avoid locking the computer when running
sequences.
91166, 25200 The user can add the same camera to the Playback Image window. Bosch VMS allocates all available
resources for decoding. This can significantly slow down the system.
73367 Playback is not possible in the hour after the second daylight saving time switch in each year.
71295 If clients are connected via low bandwidth, please do not force activation. The transfer of the new
configuration can take very long time and no progress bar is displayed.
62207 An LDAP user can assign Allegiant cameras to AMG, but not clear them or assign another camera.
62970 Operator Client does not support Windows Guest account users.
30279 Manually triggered alarms (by user event buttons) with a higher priority are not ordered correctly in alarm
list.
n/a Operator Client now supports a "Multi-view" feature when watching live. This is particularly useful for
displaying a 4K camera in multiple Image panes. The operator can then adapt the image section in each
Image pane by using focus and zoom. The CPU load of Operator Client does not increase in this case. The
reason is that the camera image is decoded only once, the image sections in the Image panes are not
decoded again. The entire multi-view can be saved as a favorite. The multi-view feature is not supported
for Playback Mode. In Playback Mode, an Image section of a camera is decoded for each Image pane.
Displaying the recording of a 4K camera in multiple Image panes can lead to severe performance
issues.The multi-view feature is not supported for transcoded videos.
n/a When the connection of Operator Client to Management Server is reestablished after a period of working
in offline mode, all user events that occurred during offline mode, are transmitted to the server. This is not
valid for logon/logoff events. They are not logged during offline mode.

ID Description
105817,93460 • Archive Player does not support the search for text data.
93510 When text exceeds 4000 bytes then the complete text block is not recorded (this may lead to no alarm
being triggered).
93267 The Find video by event list always opens primary recording, even when search was run on secondary
recording. Switch manually to secondary recording.
41145 When using Find Video by event, alarm recordings triggered by users cannot be found directly. You need
to search for the general alarm recording and then sort by user.
80714 Forensic search is not possible when Operator Client is connected via routed access or on a transcoded
stream.
69946 Video content analysis (IVA) on a transcoded Image pane is not supported.
ID Description
116684 Description of selecting a VCA area is wrong as of FW 6.10.In the default setting, the whole camera image is
defined as sensitive area. Use VCA masks to exclude disturbing objects or areas that are irrelevant for
alarm event generation. Only objects moving outside VCA masks, in the sensitive area of the camera
image, are detected as such and generate an alarm event. Objects moving inside VCA masks cannot
generate an alarm event even if they are caught by the camera.

BVMS 9.0 - Release notes 58 of 70
ID Description
117658 VIDEOJET connect can be used by Bosch VMS only with the corresponding variant type of the MIC IP 7000.
Comments
• Ensure that the VIDEOJET connect 7000 and MIC IP 7000 have the same password settings to grant access to
each other.
• To achieve local recording with VIDEOJET connect 7000, the configuration of storage needs to be done via the
Configuration Manager. The local storage then appears with the IP of the VJC 7000 as ISCSI target in the
Configuration Client.
• Transcoding and state supervision for VIDEOJET connect 7000 are not supported.
• Automatic Network Replenishment with VIDEOJET connect 7000 is working with a batch file issued for the devices'
configuration.
ID Description
93771 Auto-protected recording on alarm: It may sporadically occur that the pre-alarm is not protected with the
alarm. This is the case when pre-alarm and alarm are recorded on different recording blocks and only the
later block is protected.
93162 In some rare cases, pre-alarm cannot be protected together with the alarm when pre-alarm is on the
previous block.
93131 Auto-protected recording on alarm: The Timeline in Operator Client indicates exactly the time period that
was selected for protection. But in fact the entire recording block is protected, which the protected time
period belongs to.
93076 Auto-protect is not designed to be used with high frequency alarms. If alarms come in too frequently, this
may lead to the last auto-protected recordings losing their protection. Technical background: If more than
32 auto-protected alarms occur on a single recording block, the 33rd and following recordings will no
longer be protected.
82703 When removing a VRM from the Bosch VMS configuration, ensure that this VRM is removed from the
network before. Otherwise recording data might be lost.
30130 When the user of Configuration Client scans an existing VRM, the encoder names are renamed to default
Bosch VMS names.
