    Dahua 5442 - video page empty dropdowns, can't change video settings?

    Changing browser didn't make a difference. Factory reset worked, and the interface now loads properly in all browsers.

    Dahua 5442 - video page empty dropdowns, can't change video settings?

    Changing browsers doesn't help. Interestingly one of the GRPC endpoints it tries to hit on page load is returning responses with errors inside like this: "error": { "code": 268959743, "message": "Unknown error! error code was not set in service!"...

    Dahua 5442 - video page empty dropdowns, can't change video settings?

    Ok I'll try to try IE. I suppose with browsers updating all the time it's possible something broke with this older version of the firmware.

    Dahua 5442 - video page empty dropdowns, can't change video settings?

    No. I don't run windows. I've tried Firefox & Chrome. Both browsers work to load the settings page on an another 5442 camera with no issues and I previously was able to load this settings page. I noticed a console error on the broken page: - Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of...

    Debugging a T5442T-ZE that went offline

    Turns out the camera is fine thankfully. It looks like some of the insulation was damaged in the ethernet cable. I don't know how it happened, maybe some small insects or something eating away at the insulation? Either way just an update for future searchers. I cut a length off, crimped it and...

    Debugging a T5442T-ZE that went offline

    Unfortunately no luck with the SD card removed. I guess I'm looking at water damage... I replaced the RJ45 on the cable, did a reset and also no luck connecting to it on the default 192.168.1.108. Looks like I'll have to take it down and inspect it properly, quite hard to do it on the ladder.

    Debugging a T5442T-ZE that went offline

    Ooh I don't like that behavior when the SD card is failing! I'll take a look later, thanks for the lead

    Debugging a T5442T-ZE that went offline

    Hi, I'm running two Empiretek T5442T-ZE cameras via POE from a POE switch, to one interface on my dual NIC home server. The camera network is separate from my home network. I use Frigate & Home Assistant to monitor these. During the night a few nights ago one of them went offline. There is...
