Amcrest Forum

I think I'll end up opening a ticket with the Amcrest support. In the meantime, I have a workaround for people on iOS. It's not 100% clean but it works fine. 1/ On your iOS device, make sure the Apple Shortcuts app is installed 2/ On the Shortcuts app, create a shortcut named "OpenAmcrestViewPr...

Does anyone happen to know the iOS URL Scheme for links directly to the app on iOS. For example to open Waze on iOS you could use waze:// and it will open the iOS app, I was hoping to link to the iOS Amcrest View Pro app from my Home Assistant Notifications.. but I have been having trouble finding ...

Can you try the below code once again in Firefox? I was able to get this working in Firefox. Note that the subtype is 1 not 0. http://admin:password@192.168.1.95:8090/cgi-bin/mjpg/video.cgi?[channel=<channelno>]&subtype=1 Correct. It works. We have a pop-up to confirm we want to connect with th...

Hi, It appears the command does not work with the latest firmware as basic authentication was removed. This was part of security enhancements for the camera. Indeed, my camera has the latest firmware: 2.520.AC00.18.R from 06-29-2017 So it has been removed in HTTP/HTTPS for live stream only, but not ...

Hi Melvin, Enabling anonymous login is another option. This can be set from setup > System > manage users. Here also the settings will not be available for the anonymous user. Thanks for your answer! Yes, indeed it's an option, it works. But I don't want to decrease the level of security opening the...

I don't think there are any Windows browsers that will show an RTSP stream. I agree. But I hoped the HTTP/HTTPS stream could work, while I more and more think it's unfortunately not the case. 1/ It seems Amcrest has issues with live stream on browsers. Currently on PC: - IE works by downloading an ...

I don't know that model but if you are trying to access the realtime stream, shouldn't it be using RTSP protocol? It should also include the port that's defined for the video stream. On my cameras, if I login to them I can view the exact syntax needed. Something like this example. rtsp://<username>...

Hi, I would like to add a shortcut on my desktop to launch the live stream of my IP2M-841 more easily. At the moment I have... (the camera is on the 192.168.0.44 IP address) http://192.168.0.44/ It opens IE on the login page. But I would like to pass the user and password in parameters so that I can...

The memory card specs the IP2M-841 cameras support is one thing but there's also what manufacturers can offer for IP cameras. And on this side, I just discovered a bad news thanks to some comments from a Sandisk representative on Amazon about a high speed card. Sandisk strictly limits its warranty f...

Hi amcresthell, Their specs say it's 64GB, but mine seems to use a 128GB card just fine and fill the whole thing up when set to continuous recording. On an 8Mbps stream, that's about 3 days worth. Can you confirm your card manufacturer, model and specs? I try to do a small survey of cases where a 12...
