Hello...

I just noticed that I have two Dahua DH-SD22204T-GN cameras, firmware 2.600.0000.0.R.T4.484, Build Date: 2017-06-01, that have started saving their motion-triggers video recordings a xxx._ and xxx.idx_ instead of the usual xxx.dav and xxx.idx.

If I manually rename the files with the appropriate extensions they play fine.

Both cameras are configured to save motion files to a Windows 10 FTP server on my local network.

The problem seems to have started on 09/26/2018 between 2:37pm and 2:52pm EST. I can track down no system change or anything that corresponds to this timeframe.

Has anyone experienced a similar issue?

Thanks in advance for your assistance.
Brent

FIX: I updated the cameras to 2.640.0000000.2.R.T4.484, Build Date: 2018-09-28 and the problem has been resolved.
