New firmwares 5.5.4 (G1) & 5.5.5 (R6)

Chaps,

some new firmware available on Hik UK/IRE website Hikvision UK & Ireland

just updated 2 of my cameras, nothing bricked - will have to see what these really fix since the readme says little other then compatability updates.

Applied 2 x EP-2142FWD-IS units and all is good so far, these are 'branded' units from an aliexpress site hence the EP

Does this version 5.5.5 fix the PIR problem. The PIR alarm is not being sent to Blue Iris in version 5.5.0 Hikvision 5.5.0 not sending PIR/Motion alarms to BI?

I upgraded 16 cameras, no bricks.

Oddly enough, it looks like the firmware downgraded the plugin version.

New firmware works faster on G1 series (no 1-2 sec lag on NVR when changing main channel views on cameras) but motion detection is broken. Even set to 20% there are alarms when nothing moves.

Upgraded a DS-2DE4220IW-D from 5.4.8 to 5.5.5 and had one issue.
It changed the web authentication realm from "DS-2DE4220IW-D" to "IP Camera(66041)" which meant that PTZ did not work in ZoneMinder until I changed the configuration.
