Amcrest Forum

Awesome glad to hear you got it worked out. It is odd that my main server wouldn't work for me. So thought it was something that was off with this design.. I tested the other server again and it still fails to send. I know the info is good because I added it to another camera different model and wor...

Ok sent you a DM with user and password. for testing.

Well having my crazy email server in the v3 works my semi normal email server don't. I don't know if it don't like that it is a .info and it is looking for normal type like .com, .net, .org kind of thing and thinks the .info is bad format? However it does use the extra long email server that some of...

So I don't know what is going on. I just double checked and updated my newest Amcrest camera that also acts like the v3 cameras you are dealing with and only shows 6 * for the password. Even in the WebUI after you setup and leave the page, When you come back to the email page it will only show 6 * b...

However I have found now that in fact my V3 camera won't connect to my current email server either.. Now I am not sure what the issue is.

May have been a feature that wasn't used in the end so it was removed... Thanks for the update I will still post what I find out when I do..

Right now going to stick with Amcrest cameras, So no need for EOL Bosch thanks for thinking about me for them.. I am going to work on upgrading a lot of my older AI Cameras to newer AI color search Or Meta type cameras. Not sure how many besides the 1083 that Amcrest has. I just don't like to be beh...

I will ask tomorrow Amcrest Tech and see what they come up with. I mean I have some other cameras with same type verbiage related to PTZ reloading the settings after reboot. But that is old Tech hardware so not sure it is related.

Oh yeah also has 2 way audio with Alarm with 3 different output speeches it will say... So it has a lot of features just keep in mind that being less then 150 for a camera you do get what you pay for.. In truth the best thing about the camera is 20x zoom. Quality of picture is Sub par to Amcrest 2mp...
