5 MegaGixel 1/1.8" low light destroyer for $90-AVOID LONGSE JUNK

How much did you originally pay for it with shipping?
 
Back to cameras! Before it's too late!
 
Hello,
Is it possible to use the Longse firmware 3516A_IMX178_W_6.1.39.3
for the SMTSEC SIP-E02-500LA.
Has anyone done that?
 
Hmmm. Same image processor. Same sensor. Give it a try and let us know.
 
You cant just take any camera that has the same image sensor and apply firmware from another vendor.. If you dont want to brick your camera then leave it alone.

Ok i understand.
My problem is i config video coding
rate control vbr bitrate 8192 or 4048 image quality is good
but
after a view minutes the cam adjust the settings to bitrate 1000 , bad image quality.
The cam is cable connected on gigabit lan

What can i do ?
 
Contact the manufacturer for assistance; or return the defective product to your vendor.
 
Can you post one (or more) of your camera web interface screens?
 
Good value and bad value

Contact is difficult, only with aliexpress.

Listen to Nayr. Do not flash with the Herospeed/Longse firmware.
 
About flashing different vendor's cams:
- flashed Iptronic Hi3516a_imx178 with the latest firmware via Web access - camera got bricked (no http responce, no streams, etc...)
- however it was still available via IPCSearch tool
- flashed it with IPCSearch to latest firmware again (wasn't able to flash previous versions - got errors)
- camera booted and became available via Web
- at first there was no any video, however everything came to normal after reset to factory defaults (via Web - even no button reset was required)

Don't get me wrong - I'm not seducing you to flash the cam as in your case it may lead to unrecoverable error...
 
Anyone purchased one of these from aliexpress recently with success? Would you mind sharing the link? Thanks.

I purchased mine a couple of months ago from here: Aliexpress.com : Buy #LRDC60S500 H264 / H265 Hisilicon Hi3516A & 1/1.8" SONY IMX178 Infrared Onvif H264 Network Real Time 5MP IP Camera Dome from Reliable camera lace suppliers on Shenzhen Topxel Electronics Tech Co Ltd

Maybe I just got a lemon but I wouldn't recommend this camera. The color night image is great but the stability is horrible. I have to factory reset it every 7-10 days due to it not outputting a video feed.
