Because the great work of all users here, I was able to add line crossing and intrusion detection
to Inkovideo and LTS cams, which are easily available in Germany.


Some Facts:


1. Inkovideo V-110HD cams seems to be similar to Brovision WH-CI3930 cams.
They are most likely rebranded 2xx2 Hikvision 3MP bullets with 2xEXIR LED up to 50m

2. Inkovideo V-109HD cams seems to be similar to Brovision WH-CI1930 cams.
They are most likely rebranded 2xx2 Hikvision 3MP turrets with 1xEXIR LED up to 30m

3. My Inkovideo cams are ENG/ML and easily available at the German online store www.redcoon.de

4. But the cams comes with a special branded Inkovideo firmware and cannot be upgraded by Webinterface to standard Hikvision firmware


5. The cams only have motion detection. No VCA events are implemented


Here is, what I have done:


a) some weeks ago I managed to update both type of cams with english 5.3.0 firmware using TFTP method and got 1 line crossing and 1 intrusion detection working properly.


b) I tried a lot to downgrade it to DemonicHawks 4-line 5.2.5 firmware (and got great help from him by PM), but failed.
But here is, how I managed to finally get them downgraded to english 5.2.5 with 4-line intrusion and line crossing detection:


Step1:
Modified Whoslooking's "Custom Firmware Downgrader 5.3.0 Chinese to 5.2.5 English" using Wzhick's firmware tools and changed language flag to 1.
I tried a lot, but only succeeded with Whoslooking's old downgrader (the one without DemonicHawk's 4-line modification)


Step2:
TFTP'd that modified firmware onto the cams. I got a working english 5.2.5 with 1-line crossing and 1-intrusion area


Step3:
Updated the cams by their webinterface using DemonicHawks modified english 5.2.5 firmware and finally got a working 4-zone intrusion detection and 4-line crossing sections.




Probably this is not the straight way and can be done easier, but as mentioned, I had them up to 5.3.0 before.
I hope, this will be helpful for those, who are able to grab the cams here in Germany.

And THANKYOU again to all of you, who figured out those things and helped me by their posts here at Ipcamtalk. @whoslooking, @wzhick, @DemonicHawk, @alistairStevenson
