Hi.
I just ran into a weird situation. Few weeks ago my camera starting showing OSD info on the captured image, even if I never enabled that settings. I tried logging in to remove them but my password wasn't working... So after some time I took the camera back to home and made a reset.

The procedure went fine, now the camera is accessible at 192.168.1.64 and asks for the password at first login. The problem is that it's not storing any setting anymore, every time I reboot it asks me for the password reset, and whatever I change at reboot the camera is always brand new. I tried changing the static IP address, setting DHCP or whatever, nothing, it always resets to defaults!
Whenever I save a setting I get the dialog saying it has been saved correctly.

What could it be?
thanks

You deserve credit for coming back and explaining what you did to resolve the problem! Most people wouldn't, and I for one sincerely appreciate it.
