Annke Firmware to Hikvision Firmware: HOW TO

I have I91BL (annke c800 ai) with a 2021 firmware. I bought the AI version, but later I started using Frigate.
The problem is that I91BL has 640x480 substream, and thats not enough for Frigate to recognise people. The 4k Main stream literally eats my N6005 processzor and gpu.
Is there ANY way, hack/customfirmware/hardver mod to increase this 480p substream to at least 720p or 1080p?

Thanks in advance!

buy a recorder, custom firmware there are none and there won't be any, or buy a more modern version of the camera, it has a second stream in 720
 
Hello to all,
I just received an Annke C800 (I95DL, with smart dual light), recognizing that it does not offer NAS-connection and no expert view for the Events. I am using the device standalone without NVR.
Would switching to Hikvision firmare activate this? I already understood, that it would not add the smart events. Is it the same with NAS and Expert view?

In addition, as this is the only firmware for G6, it can't be wrong right?

Best regards
Tom

Same here. Did you manage to get back to 5.7.11 once you had 5.8.0? Demo Client won't allow downgrade...

Besides: I never got any picture on the web interface, only grey boxes and "live view failed" errors. With original Annke and all hikvision firmware. Anyone else with this issue?
 
Have you tried whether this problem also occurs in the new version of the E10 firmware?

DS-2CD1043G2-LIUF/SL

Hikvision DS-2CD1043G2-LIUF/SL 4 MP Smart Hybrid Light Fixed Bullet Network Camera

Downgrade can be done via TFTP and Terminal.

Thanks, I wasn't aware of the newer version. Would like to give it a try, but unfortunately, I'm currently stuck:

TFTP took me a while to figure out that newer models like mine are looking for 192.168.1.128 instead of 192.0.0.128. I finally managed to upload firmware using scottlamb's tool. However, although the tool uploads the firmware and confirms the process 'done', the camera seems dead afterwards - right after flashing I can still ping the device, but a port scan does not show any open ports (probably stuck in the firmware update mode?).

It seems not to reboot automatically (I did wait up to 15 hours), so I power cycled the device, but I won't come back on (no DHCP request, not discoverable with SADP tool). I can still reflash with TFTP though. Tried different firmwares (including V5.7.11_230308, which I had working previously).

Am I missing something, any hints?


With "Terminal" you a re referring to UART? I was hoping to get around this exercise...

Have you tried using a different browser? Or uninstalling the LocalServiceComponent plugin?
I've noticed that the latest G5 software from Hikvision won't work with Firefox, but works fine with Edge.

Got the firmware on the offical Hkvision portal. it all seems working, was on macOS beforehand but now on windows with the plugin installed, all seems fine.
Is it possible to do this on Mac?

I can get it in the app over LAN, is it however possible to check it remotely?
