Revo, why are they calling this a "new release" if you were posting about it back here in September? Just Curious...

Thanks for input, but this is for use when I travel which is for lengthy periods of time in camper. Camper is solar powered, and I only use the phone currently as a hotspot for all my internet and computer needs. I mostly want it to spot wildlife that may wander by during the night. This particular ...

My Solution.... Instead of trying to hook in direct from laptop to camera via ethernet, I tried something I never tried before which was to put my phone in Hotspot Mode, and then reset the camera and then use the "SoftAP" method outlined in the manual. I disconnected the phone from my home...

I set a static ip address on it when I was using it on my network. I did finally get it to show up on the Amcrest IP tool, but still am unable to connect via the web browser. Will try again tommorrow. I'm just looking for anyway to use this cam as a night vision cam for my camper, it would be nice t...

I'll check back.

I'm guessing the answer is no, but I have a 5x optical zoom on my IP8M-VB2696EW-AI; and everytime I change the zoom level I have to change the detection area.

Thanks.

I have searched this camera model on this forum and no one has posted anything about this camera. This is a newer camera, and I am used to not being able to use IVS features and Smart Motion Detect simultaneously, because on all my other Amcrest Cameras if you enable the IVS Smart Plan, it DISABLES ...

Well, even though this has worked on Win 11 consistently before I had an issue, I have not been able to view it lately for many consecutive days. So I right clicked the Amcrest S Pro icon, and went into compatibility mode, I let it set its own parameters and then clicked the button to "test the...

This is becoming a real pain. When I open Amcrest Surveillance Pro and try to playback video from the local SD card storage over the internet, it appears as though it is streaming the vid because there is an kbps # in upper left corner, but the screen is just BLACK. It used to be every now and then ...
