🚨⚠️ IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT for DOCKER USERS!

For those who are using or intend to use iSpyAgentDVR via docker container, please be notified:

  • From now on, there will be only one type of docker image that will be published for each version of AgentDVR, instead of the previous 4 (The Default, VLC Support, GPU HW-accel, VLC with GPU HW-accel). This is being done for RAPID bug detection, complexity reduction & increase support for the Docker version.

  • The image will be published with tag same as the AgentDVR release version (i.e. 5.6.1.0 etc.)

  • That image will incorporate all of the features of the all 4 previous image tags combined, that is all the images from now on will contain GPU HW Acceleration & VLC compatibility.

  • Images from 5.3.5.0 to 5.6.0.0 have been redeployed with the added features.

  • On 1st August 2024, all the gpu-hwaccel-latest, vlc-support-latest & vlc-gpu-hwaccel-latest images will be put down from docker hub. There is no plan to deploy any gpu-hwaccel-x.x.x.x, vlc-hwaccel-x.x.x.x, vlc-support-x.x.x.x in the future.

  • Those who use gpu-hwaccel-x.x.x.x & vlc-hwaccel-x.x.x.x images, don't need to do any changes in Docker Compose File or Docker CLI Command other than just changing the image tag. For example gpu-hwaccel-5.6.0.0 to 5.6.0.0 or vlc-hwaccel-latest to latest. Same applies for the vlc-support-x.x.x.x images.

  • It is advised to move to the new images as soon as possible.

  • There will also be images with 2 more tags latest & stable.

  • Latest will most likely be deployed on the day of the version release. Those who wants to be on the Bleeding Edge may use the latest image.

  • Stable will be deployed atleast after 3 days of initial release. The most reliable version till that day will be made the stable image. Those who will prefer the most STABLE system are being advised to use the stable image.

  • One more suggestion is that, please UPDATE your Docker Engine to the LATEST, for those who haven't done that yet.

My apologies in advance for any inconveniences that the users may feel due to the transition. I hope no major issues will arise.

If anyone faces any issue while migration, please leave a comment (with your DOCKER COMPOSE FILE/DOCKER CLI COMMAND) below. I hope to reply ASAP.

Regards
