Help : Identify Hardware

[Activ8]

Bought a budget AliExpress dual camera, WiFi, PTZ and battling to get the supplier to accept a shipping error , refund / replacement .... lol!

4MP+4MP advertised but the video output using TinyCamPro is 720p 1280x720, so 1MB+1MB! Opened it up to track the board specs and thought I'd write it off to experience. Then thought "no way" , let's keep pushing for a positive solution - in my favour.

Can someone on here identify?
Google lens / text offered nothing.

Can someone on here identify?

It looks like the SoC (main processor) maxes out at 5MP encoding capability.
So unlikely to do 4MP+4MP

Ingenic Semiconductor_M200 M150 JZ4780 JZ4775 JZ4760B

Is the device ONVIF compatible?
If so - ONVIF Device Manager will show what stream encoding capabilities are advertised.
Give it some valid logon credentials, run it on a PC on the same LAN segment as the camera and it should find the camera automatically.

I gave you an invalid link.
This should work :

ODM - Browse /onvifdm-v2.2.250 at SourceForge.net

@alastairstevenson .
Is there an ODM User Guide, online or pdf for new users?

The softwares output from the camera is both new and odd!
Some aspects at first view seem to be locked to the user plus I'm not getting either a snapshot image, video or live viewing through ODM. I'm logged in and another camera is proving I'm at least doing something right. LOL.
TIA

Sorry, I've never looked.
Although it can be used to make configuration changes, I think it's main use is simply to provide lots of info about the target device.
The Events page is often quite informative about a device's capability.
Parts that are odd or don't work properly may indicate that the device ONVIF support isn't perfectly implemented.

From what I recall, ODM doesn't handle h.265 if that's what the camera stream is set to.
But one of the reasons I suggested trying it was to confirm via another method what resolution the camera is capable of, which was one of your original gripes about it.

ODM's 'profile' page should provide a good amount of useful info, example below:

That's great thanks.
The Profiles

 

[Activ8]

The ODM Profiles page has provided the evidence I needed to formalise a complaint against the Seller and supplied camera.
The AliExpress Customer Services were at face value brilliant with the supplied evidence.

Onwards.
Right I need to fix and repair an AXIS 213....
Are they upgradeable????
