Feed not updating

Post by milty456 »

Amcrest ProHD 1080P WiFi Camera 2MP (1920TVL) Indoor Pan/Tilt Security Wireless IP Camera IP2M-841B (Black)
Software Version2.520.AC00.18.R, Build Date: 2017-06-29
WEB Version3.2.1.453504
ONVIF Version2.42(V2.2.2.428697)

I noticed twice now, when it's night....when i open the camera the clock is right, but the image is as if it's still daytime....if i reboot the camera, it fixes it and the image/feed is night time.

Anyone else have this issue? Is there a fix?

Thanks

I have a few of these cameras on this FW and prefer this FW Version over the 2019 and 2020 but I have never had an issue like you have described on any of them. I have some from as far back as first Release in 2015 even having a Pre Amcrest Mac address old.. Non act like that..

So I guess the next question is, Your camera being used as a Stand alone or are you talking about logging into so other type of software or hardware that isn't Amcrest Related?

I've tried logging in through the browser(standalone) AND other software, and both ways, it was displaying as if it was daytime(as if the image presented was in the past).

Just a quick question . Have you ever notice a large lag time between the movement in front of the camera and the time the actual movement displayed on your monitor, like 30 seconds or minutes? Another question, does your camera have two video streams and do you use both?

Just bought 2 more of these cameras IPM-241b v3; same issues
After some time the feed just is stuck i check them in the day; i see a night picture with the correct timestamp
I check them at night; i see a pic of the day with proper timestamp

Software VersionV2.800.00AC003.0.R, Build Date: 2022-08-11
WEB VersionV3.2.1.18144
ONVIF Version21.12(V3.1.0.1207744)

The only thing different i can tell between some others i have...these two are "flipped images" because they are side mounted.

Anyone at amcrest reading this know of a reason this happens?

they lock up like that within an hour
flipping the image to 0 and back to 90 "fixes" the feed for about. another hour.
amcrest please fix
