Hi all,
I've just entered the world of IP cams and I would really appreciate some advice to get me setup.
I'm stuck with a purchase of a Chinese version DS-2CD2032F-I. I have read about changing the region and would very much like to do this if possible? Failing that could I downgrade to a firmware that is compatible with an NVR? (NVR for future use, currently I'll be using a PC).
The seller sneakily sent me the below after my purchase of an apparently UK version of the cam.
