can you please point me in the right direction? I am unabeto find anything to downgradecheck the threads, there is a hacked version
Hey Frank,Hi guys, this is my first post on this forum and i really wish someone can help with the problem i seem to have after upgrading my DS-2CD2342WD-I camera's from firmware 5.3.8. to this latest version 5.4.0.
I cannot set my camera's to anything higher than 1920x1080P. This morning while i was still on 5.3.8. i had normal 4MP resolution. It seems to have downgraded my resolution to 2MP instead of 4MP.
I added a screenshot from 1 of my cams. 1920x1080P is the highest i can choose from the dropdown menu. Sorry it's in Dutch.

Anyone who can shed some light in this matter? I seem to be stuck with 2MP camera's now ;-((
All help will be highly appreciated.
Regards, Frank
I read from many users that they are happy with 5.4.0 firmware on their R6 model. How can it be that i am experiencing this degradation of picture quality during low light conditions? Are you guys using different settings? Can anyone (for instance Kroegtijgertje) confirm which settings to use? I am really stuck looking for clues here.Hi guys, i'm back again with an issue with the 5.4.0. firmware. My picture quality during nightime (no IR) has changed dramatically (and i mean that in the worst possible negative way) since the upgrade to 5.4.0. With 5.3.8. i had considerable better night video than now. So i think i wish to go back to 5.3.8.
Did anyone do this downgrade already?
Below some screenshots from before (with 5.3.8. from 29/30 july) and after (with 5.4.0. from 31 july until now). I added both camera's

I am curious as to what made you change your opinion. First i read that you're experiencing more noice and artifacts in 5.4.0. than with 5.3.8, but now you probably changed settings to make it better picture quality. What changes did you do?Hey badmanne, After spending a few hours messing around with the expert DNR settings I concur with your findings.
Also, after a bit more testing we have found v5.4.0 to probably be the best firmware for the R6 4MP Cameras as long as you don't need H.264+.
