Hi everyone!
I've been very happy for the last few years with my Aliexpress bought Hikvisions, namely some DS-2DE7184-AE (firmware V5.1.0 build 131203, Cod. Version V5.0 build 131118, serial no. with CCCH) and DS-2CD2032-I (firmware V5.2.5 build 141201, Cod. Version V5.0 build 140714, serial no. with CCCH).
They worked fine with my Synology Diskstation as NVR.
The Synology also acts as a NTP server, synching the time once a day with the cams.
But in the last few weeks, all my cams are 1 hour too late. All the DST and timezone settings are correct in the cams, as well as in the Synology.
Now Synology support told me to update my cams to the latest firmware in order to solve the problem, even though I don't know what my cams could have done, as they worked fine for the last years.
Nevertheless I wanted to ask here if it's even possible to upgrade my cams to a new (multilanguage, or English at least) firmware at all? I can't afford to have a $1000 cam bricked.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
