Axis VMD and Axis media control for windows

Recommended Posts

As many of you may know, they took out the tried and true (at least I thought so) motion detection and replaced it with the VMD application in the latest cameras. The setup for inclusion windows requires Windows Internet Explorer browser (Do they still even make that browser any more?!) and the Axis media control plugin.

 

MS windows has sunsetted around here and there are currently 2 computers running windows 7 with MSIE and have downloaded the AMC plug on both. I know it has worked before but now it just opens a new window with a blank page and I can't change the settings.

 

It's puzzling why they would revamp the GUI but leave the only motion detection requiring some antiquated browser with a plugin that doesn't work. I have always thought the VMD app is too sensitive and adjusting it has never worked good. I want the old motion detector back!

 

The previous motion detector used java, and while not my favorite plugin, at least it worked and worked cross platform.

 

So now I can't create include or exclude windows and Axis helpdesk is basically like too bad, sorry.
