Re: Amcrest cameras not syncing time with NTP server

I can not get them to sync to an NTP server. Any possibility that port 123 is not open from your camera network to the outside world?

Re: Very poor colors on ASH-43

Set up a good one and compare each of the bad ones side-by-side to it one at a time. If they exhibit the poor color by comparison as described, hopefully they are still under warranty and can be replaced without issue.

Good luck with Amcrest support.

Re: Reolink 811A Shuts Down 4108-HS

Thanks for the input. I ran across the following over on Reddit. In a nutshell, this is basically what was happening; (or more accurately, not happening.) The thread ended with nothing conclusive being determined, and not surprisingly, very little input. In my particular case, reverting to the previ...

OK. So pretend this is an Amcrest 4K H265 camera that's doing the same thing with a 4108-HS -- wiping out the display with panel block tearing/skewing and a green/gray screen.

What would cause this?

Reolink 811A Shuts Down 4108-HS

But it works fine in Blue Iris. LOL Talk about back-assward. So Revo, you're aware of my challenges with Reolink 4K cameras and Blue Iris..., along with just about everyone else who embarks on that particular journey. Not that I'm a big Reolink fan. I just happened upon mine in a couple of local Fac...

Re: Ptz repair not as easy as I thought

Good luck with it!

Maybe one of these days I'll get to the power board problem from that cool little HDCVI Dahua PTZ that died straight out of the box. Unfortunately my surface mount troubleshooting skills leave much to be desired!

Re: Ptz repair not as easy as I thought

I'd be interested to know how you make out with this. Looks like it may be a little tricky sneaking that rascal off and a fresh one back into place.
