With Dahua cams is it possible to rotate the date and time when you have the camera configures in portrait mode instead of landscape. Please see the attached image which is approx. the upper left quarter part of the image (I didn't want to get my neighbors license plate into the picture). But you can see that the date/time is vertical but I would like to have it horizontally. I can't see a setting to do this and it doesn't seem to be possible to rotate the text box.

All of my Dahua cameras allow the image to be rotated within the camera interface - go to Settings --> Conditions --> Conditions --> Flip --> 90 or 270 degrees. This should also rotate the overlays. No independent rotation of overlays is provided in camera, which means that if you rotate the image externally, in a NVR or BI, the the overlay will end up vertical as in your image.

In my case it seems to be at a different place. Too many menus but I finally found it. See attachment. Thanks.
