Problem with Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-Z

[ambra]

Hello
I have a problem with IP camera Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-Z.
In the "OVERLAY" menu I select "Time Title" enable, but in the image is shows the time verry poorly. The letters are barely visible. In the images in this forum with this IP Camera I saw that the letters are completely white and not just their outline.
What can be done?

I think this is the setting you want.

Unfortunately I don't have these settings in the menu.

Yes, that's how I did it. I set the restore to default and date & time reappeared.
Multumesc.

Yes, even because I don't think that the font color has something to do with transparency

Same issue on my Dahua - no font attribute either. I am not sure why they removed the feature in some camera's firmware.

But I'm curious what menu has "mikeynags". Is it from another model or is it an updated software?

Probably different camera/firmware. Maybe he can let us know camera version. I have noticed some of my dahua have it and others do not. It would be nice to make the font bigger to better see the time/date.

On mine, I have this fw, and that option is availabe

Maybe it has a newer firmware and we can try it on our cameras, of course if he will agree with share with us.

I wrote before I saw your link. Beg your pardon.

It's a IPC-HDW5231R-ZE camera.

Thank you for the answer.
Yes, I did firmware update after the link sent by "redfive" and now I have the same menu.
