    Can the time be set via curl? If so you could prevent the restarts by keeping the time on a certain setting :)

    Doesn't the URL also need some kind of authentication ID or does invoking those asp sites not trigger authentication?

    Yeah, comes in handy when you forget your password... ;) Jokes aside: no matter which manufacturer, all those IP cams are not very security hardened. I really recommend putting them in another subnet or VLAN with no access to your router or home network, only access from your home network /...

    Yeah, if anyone can crack the hash, it would make life a bit easier. When does your camera reset the quality settings? Only observed this when the cam loses power. I think no one tried the OpenIPC firmware yet. The chipset seems supported though, but I don't know even if OpenIPC works, will it...

    So, there seems not much to do as most stuff is read-only (maybe I'll poke around with flashcp later). One thing you can do though, is disabling cloud functionality: -> vi /mnt/flash/productinfo/tuya_p2p.cfg (or use the debug_run.sh to copy/edit/copy back the file) There you can set "enable"...

    What I found out too: There is an interesting script in the filesystem called update_partition.sh - if I get it right this is able to write certain files into the otherwise read-only filesystem by flashing it directly into the memory blocks. So if anyone is familiar with flashcp one could...

    Sure, but it isn't really helpful as the HANKVISION user doesn't seem to work (which, in a security context, is good). Yesterday I gained access via UART to the camera. Unfortunately the root file system is read-only and so seems the Server.tar.gz which seems to hold the /etc/passwd file, so it...

    I only noticed this when the camera loses power, then it seems to reset to the default quality settings. Do you turn it off sometimes or does it somehow lose power? I'm still considering opening one of them up (again) to search for a UART connection, then I'd be able to access the underlying...

    You need to log into the cameras using your browser (login/pw = admin/admin) and go to the video settings where you can set the bitrate and video quality to highest. The picture then will be much better. You can also choose CBR instead of VBR which gives constantly good to very good image...

    What I found out is that the SoC on my cams is a Goke GK7205V300 with a Sony IMX335 sensor. I have the current firmware installed: Version: V3.2.13-Tuya_231018 Product info: IPC-E2A5Z18-W-B-TY There seems to be alternative Firmware available: OpenIPC firmware (only with access to RS232/UART...

    Did anyone find out if somehow the underlying OS (Linux I suppose?) is accessible, e.g. by SSH? That would help to figure out / fix the problem with the nightly reset at 1 a.m. In general, I'm very pleased with the camera. When setting the image quality to highest it really has a great picture...
