    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    It was actually the 200702 release that fixed the issue where the doorbell had a fixed cloud IP and went "offline" when AWS changed server IP's. 200828 was supposed to fix night IR/power issues and some unidentified Motion Detection issue. It was recalled 4 days after it was released with...

    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    At the Amcrest support forum it was reported that doorbells on the 200828 firmware (which was recalled) did lose RTSP/NVR connectivity due to the cloud outage that impacted authentication. This is very disturbing if this dependency will continue with subsequent releases. On 200702 firmware...

    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    Amcrest SmartHome server handling authentication came back up right about the time you posted. I never lost RTSP connectivity with my NVR or Home Assistant.

    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    Thanks for sharing! You're the first I've heard of ever being able to stream this doorbell solely via ONVIF protocols and authenticate successfully. Was your AD110 updated with the v200828 firmware?

    What changed? The SH app's firmware update menu says right on screen what changed (well not everything...) Fix issue related to low voltage causing some features to not work correctly. Improved Motion Recording playback. Recordings no longer capped at 12-15 secs. Push Notifications for...

    latest Version of DAHUA HTTP API FOR IPC Documentation ??

    LOL... so if you were to post a new and helpful CGI command (or used new commands in your opensource/github repo) found only in the latest API guide that you received from signing this NDA, could you then be hit with... (1,000,000 Chinese Yuan equals $146,318.62 USD) I'm trying to...

    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    It's interesting that the AD110 is recognized on network discovery as supporting ONVIF (version 8.12). If you try to connect to it, it will fail due to credentials not being authorized. The AD110 admin credentials don't work, and if you try to create a user account via ONVIF Device...

    latest Version of DAHUA HTTP API FOR IPC Documentation ??

    I've been digging into Amcrest's AD110 doorbell internal configuration trying to improve the integration with python-amcrest and Home Assistant. This doorbell has numerous API configurations that are unique and not documented in any publicly available API guides. Amcrest has not released...

    latest Version of DAHUA HTTP API FOR IPC Documentation ??

    @EMPIRETECANDY - Hi Andy, In the screenshot you sent, it shows the revision history of only V2.4. Would you please show the revision history for the versions that follow V2.74, up to and including 2.8x? Funny, the guide says "Welcome to use the API..." but apparently not welcome to...

    The latest version of the SmartHome app includes a "Device Indicator" switch to turn off the blue circle LED. You can also turn if off via the API: http://<ip_address>/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=setConfig&LightGlobal[0].Enable=false

    latest Version of DAHUA HTTP API FOR IPC Documentation ??

    V2.84 is available from this Dahua site - https://depp.dahuasecurity.com/integrationProtocols/102 but it requires a "partner" login to download. I tried to register as a partner to see what the requirements are, but the link is broken. I too could not find it hosted anywhere else for...

    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    @gtbkr25 - My AD110 has the IR set to auto but since my video at night is always in color, the front porch lights illumination must be bright enough so it never goes into night mode. Although this is my favorite forum for IP camera technical questions, you might want to also check out the...

    AD110 Motion detection, SD card, Android DND

    I have my AD110 configured similarly to yours for motion detection and also get numerous false positives from vehicles passing by. The street is twice the distance (65') away. It seems impossible for the small/cheap PIR sensor to be able to pick up infrared radiation that far away. There...

    AD110 Doorbell Camera

    I doubt that the filtering is done in the app, but how it's done isn't entirely relevant. The issue is that alarm timestamps apparently don't play by the same filtering rules and just log everything that moves. Not sure what the point of that logic is, but it's not very useful. I've not...

    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    Hi @mcorzine - appreciate the update! So you think that it wasn't the actual http API configuration commands that bricked the AD110, but by pushing the CPU harder with increased framerates, WDR et.al, that the poor thing just overheated and died! That's very interesting. It still leaves...

    AD110 Doorbell Camera

    Hi @JoeT - I was able to get AD110 timestamps (start of motion & end) via the Alarm Menu. Under "Video Detection", you can enable Motion Detection Alarm timestamps. However, as I had mentioned previously, there are far more alarm timestamps recorded than are actually sent by the SmartHome...

    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    I've tried to use Home Assistant's ONVIF integration to connect to the AD110 with no success at authentication. (Via the Amcrest integration or FFMPEG using RTSP, no problem at all streaming), That's interesting that the AD110 responds that it is ONVIF compatible. I know that from a config...

    @ckronengold - Good luck with getting this working with the Roku app, and please keep us posted. Meanwhile, the AD110 SmartHome service went down again yesterday. The app's live view just shows "offline" and is now unusable for answering door. RTSP live stream via a different app is still...

    Apologies, the URL is supposed to be rtsp: with 2 forward slashes. This forum editor eats one of the slashes. I need to learn how to escape special char in this forum. This is the complete URL that works for HA and VLC. And based on the screen cap you provided, it appears that you...

    This is the network URL I use for Home Assistant to connect to the AD110. It can also be easily tested using VLC's "open network stream". rtsp:/admin:password@192.168.xxx.xxx:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0 BTW - I had no idea Roku had an app that provided this capability. Thanks...

    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    just discovered that the new firmware for the AD110 enables SNAPSHOT capability via API (http://<ip_address>/cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi) Shame that Amcrest doesn't provide release notes. Discovering things like this by accident/trial@error is really dumb. And for what it's worth, a comparison of...

    Dahua NVR's support the same API as the cameras (along with supporting a channel# > 1). I didn't know about this Dahua Integration partner program (DIPP) and that the link you provided listed a newer version of the HTTP API (2.78) that I would love to get my hands on. Unfortunately that...

    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    Has anyone looked closely at their AD110 settings after making changes via the SmartHome app? In particular, motion detection settings? The command: http://<doorbell_IP>/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=getConfig&name=MotionDetect (or the full config.backup) show the saved configurations in...

    AD110 Doorbell Camera

    No problem setting up a static IP for the AD110 via router/MAC address. Also no problem connecting AD110 to Dahua NVR. Live view via NVR and recording 24x7 work nicely. However, no motion events from the doorbell are captured by the NVR unfortunately (unless I'm missing something that...

    @mcorzine - well that's extremely interesting - and BRAVE! I wasn't about to try configuring the doorbell via the API due to all the other issues with non-SmartHome software locking it up. Please detail exactly the HTTP API configuration commands you used that worked. I'm sure I can infer it...

    Amcrest SmartHome Video Doorbell Camera AD110

    Adjusting motion sensing options via the NVR would likely do it. As I understand it, attempting any sort of AD110 configuration from the NVR or any other s/w besides SmartHome can mess it up, often requiring a factory reset. Happened to me, just trying to pull stored images off of the...
