Update.
Playing with the exposure settings did little good. The daytime video feed is still a white-out. bigredfish suggested to "dial.in" the exposure settings, but I have no dial option in exposure settings. That might be because I have outdated software
However the night time feed has substantially increased due to increasing the IR light intensity. I did not know that option existed
I'm starting to think this is hardware failure. The camera is subject to direct sunlight most of the day, and it's been very hot all summer. Also there was a heavy rain right before the white-out took place, so maybe the camera is not fully water resistant, or it's just coincidental
A hardware malfunction makes more sense to me because I'm the only person with access to the software (that I'm aware of) and I never made any changes. Unless it's theoretically possible for software to change it's setting by some other means
Worse case scenario, the camera was well worth the $50 I paid for it, for the time it lasted. I will buy another Amcrest, they are great cameras
