tDVR compression artifacts on low-light frames

Affected Versions

exacqVision recorders using version 1.2.22 firmware for tDVR capture boards

<br>

Description

The 1.2.22 release included a fix for large frame sizes at night/low light. This fix was found to also cause occasional but severe periods of very low frame sizes which showed as “blocky” video/compression artifacts.

Workaround

None

<br>

Resolution

Install version 1.2.23 tDVR board firmware:
https://exacq.com/release/tDVR%20Setup/1.2.x/tdvr-SetupRC-1.2.23.91584.exe
https://exacq.com/release/tDVR%20Setup/1.2.x/tdvr-SetupRC-1.2.23.91584_x64.exe
https://exacq.com/release/tDVR%20Setup/1.2.x/tdvrRC-1.2.23.91584.debAddFix

Note that due to the larger frame sizes and significantly larger recorded video file sizes, reduce maximum duration of stored video.
