Ok so now having played with this camera a bit..... Amcrest, I'm a bit disappointed. There's a "notification" capacity and the settings for zones to consider "movement" (good, as with your other IP cameras) BUT unlike the others there is not only no web interface but no way to se...

Serious..... I still have to do THIS? https://amcrest.com/forum/amcrest-smart-home-f32/cannot-pair-ad410-succesfully-t15155-s10.html?sid=51cc343dc039e8f30eb2f923a9b33414 Yes, that worked. But seriously -- May of 2022 and the app is still not fixed?! Holy mother...... I'm good, but.... yeah, not good.

Using the Smart Home app I cannot get it to pair -- either on the original connection (as a doorbell) or with the USB connected on my desk. I've tried shutting off ALL but one SSID on my WiFi (I have four, two on each of 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz) with no change and even took a second phone (Pixel 8 and 6a) a...

Setting dither to "1" (or any other number) REDUCES but does NOT eliminate the failures....

No reply at all from the Amcrest people on this?!

If it's like most silica bags you can put it in the oven at ~150F for a few hours to drive all the moisture out of it. Silica is not "consumed" when it absorbs moisture.

amc.png Updating on this if I turn on motion detection with the above screen to "send an email" WITHOUT an attachment, and WITHOUT taking a snapshot, I get the failures a good percentage of the time. If I trigger the snapshot by placing a motion detector right next to the camera (but not ...

MD5 for password hashes? I almost spit out my coffee. I wouldn't be bragging about that on a public forum. Hey Amcrest, we love your hardware, but you're going to have to do a little better. This is a big deal, and your response needs to match. I don't want to worry about my neighbor's teenage kid ...

I've got an interesting issue here with the Amcrest API's that I cannot appear to run down. I have an external application that uses the API to fetch snapshots. It does so using https and a user and password that has access to the correct permissions. A good percentage of the time it works, but some...
