I have a DS-7616NI-SP NVR with 3.4.5 firmware and have a DS-2CD2355FWD-I G1 camera attached with V5.5.83 build 190221 firmware. It is possible to update to v5.6.6 firmware on the G1 and still work? Have not updated previously due to concern about the no going back from v5.6.x without a lot of...

I noticed this with 5.4.5 170401. Save your config (under the Maintenance menu) then do a Restore and Import your settings. Did make a significant difference.

Try changing the camera to 60 Hz in Configuration > Image > Video Adjustment > NTSC(60Hz). Will need to reboot. I read a long time ago that 50 Hz mode drops frames. Appears to work well in the 60 Hz mode from my experience.

I used --digest with curl and it works with R0 and G1 cameras on Web Authentication on digest. Try digest/basic as suggested. Use :6500x where x is the camera number with virtual mode enabled on the NVR/DVR. If you are using cameras without a NVR/DVR use :80 or :8000?

I post a script only recently. You need to manually find your local sunrise/sunset time via timeanddate.com then add say 30 minutes to sunrise before switching to day and subtract 30 minutes before sunset before switching to night.

Worked through but could not get Python to run with the ephem includes (or any includes really) so I worked the following and set the times manually. Needed --digest to work on the G1 camera. IP:6500x is for going via the NVR via the virtual host mode to the cameras - use IP:80? for cameras...

I saw what you did how could this be modified just to change the scheduled times without the other settings?

Hi, I'm looking for a script/app that can run on PC/Mac that changes the day/night switching of cameras (R0s and G1) that are connected to an NVR. I would envisage one that has reference to local sunrise/sunset time then modifies the Scheduled times in the camera for switching and can be...
