Summary
The article provides step-by-step instructions on uninstalling LuxRiot software.
Instructions
To uninstall LuxRiot software:
LuxRiot can record on the network drives, but at first network drives should be mapped to the local drive letter, since LuxRiot doesn’t support UNC path.
However, Luxriot Server needs to be started in the application mode, not as a service, because drive letters only exist within logged on user context.
Preliminary support of Microsoft Vista OS added in upcoming 1.1.19 version of LuxRiot. Tested on Vista OS Beta 2. The full support of Vista OS will be added in near future. We are working hard to make the product better.
LuxRiot 1.1.18 and above support multiple ComArt XeCap capture boards and extension daughter boards. Maximum number of channels supported by single capture board is 32 (depends on model). Installation of two or more capture boards increases maximum amount respectively. Popup window in Structure pane helps to find out what particular board the given channel belongs to, e.g. 1:16 means board_number_1:channel_16.
It is however important to be aware of multichannel capture constraints imposed by available PCI band-width, especially in case of ComArt XeCap boards, since the board may utilize the entire available band-width. To workaround possible problems and achieve highest frame rates it is recommended to check “PCI band-width control” checkbox and to choose YUV 4:1:1 video format (XeCap properties. YUV411 can bring more frame rate than YUV422 (1.3 times). Video quality, however, may slightly degrade and CPU load may increase.
For a 240 FPS capture board (or several boards delivering 240 frames per second in total) required YUV411 PCI band-width is approximately 60MB/sec, YUV422 video format requires 80MB/sec for the same amount of video data. Allowed PCI band-width is limited around 60MB/sec. As a result, the board would be able to send YUV411 video data within available band-width. YUV422 capture, however, is likely to be distorted because of overusage of PCI band-width.
LuxRiot (version 1.1.18 and above) supports XeCap boards video output channels. Now it is possible to view all cameras simultaneously on both computer and analog monitors.
Usually there are two output channels on these boards. One is used for single channel output, another one for multiplexed channels output (depends on model). Different layouts can be applied for multiplexed channels.
 
Now (version 1.1.18 and above)Â you can paste fully qualified network camera web URL, e.g. “http://guest:guest@mycamera.mydomain.com:8082/index.html” into IP Address control to fill out all required parameters.
 
1) At the beginning try to use network cameras search wizard, since there are a lot of cameras of unnamed manufactures selling under known brands (OEM).
To do that, right click on server name and then choose “Tasks-> Find Network Cameras…â€.
In opened window mark «intelligent camera search» checkbox, then click next.
Wizard will scan your local network in order to figure out what network cameras you have installed.
2) If it didn`t help, try to use method written in http://blog.luxriot.com/111
3) If any of mentioned above methods not working than make this network camera available online and send us a web URL. Our engineers will try to implement support for your camera.

Symptoms
When LuxRiot DVR Server is configured to run in service mode with ComArt XeCap boards, it may appear that one or more of the capture board channels stop sending video in which case LuxRiot DVR Server Watchdog restarts service in attempt to recover from the error occurred.
However restart mail fail and LuxRiot DVR services would remain stopped.
Resolution
An update of one of the LuxRiot modules is required on LuxRiot server machine. Please follow update instructions below:
The fix will be included into next release of LuxRiot 1.1.18.
Symptoms
Luxriot suddenly switched back to the shareware mode, i.e. all the cameras but one became disabled, disabled remote connectivity and limited recording.
Description
During activation process Luxriot Server software attaches itself to the computer using its unique MAC address of the Network Adapter. If for some reason you have removed or disabled network adapter which has been used to activate Luxriot Server, than Luxriot would switch back to the shareware mode.
Solution
During LuxRiot activaion process make sure that only network adapter intended to be used with the system is installed and active. In case that activation has already been made with the wrong network adapter please make a Problem Report, as described in http://blog.luxriot.com/70
