PTZ5A4M-25X Tracking issues - Dahua SD5A425GA-HNR

I have the 5A4k25x with the same FW V3.200.0000018.2.R, Build Date: 2024-06-17 like jmcu.

For day time, I set Contrast 58, Brightness 50, WDR 10%, PFA :ON. size ratio at 40.

The ptz tracks well most of the time. But it likes car tires more than people a little too much sometimes and might switch to tires from a person while tracking. (Not all the time)Also it might swing wildly if the target is too fast when a person is on fast a motor bike and the camera can't keep up.(Probably due to the height is not tall enough) It's not perfect, but I'm happy with the ptz overall.

Those are very close to my settings with Contrast at 54

I'm just used to and got spoiled on the 6 series which makes this one look like a toy.

For someone who this is their first PTZ its easy to get excited about tracking. But even the mini-PTZ tracks better than this one.

First video with the couple walking toward the camera at about 120-150 ft and then losing them for no reason is the worst in my opinion

And yeah the Aliens are bad right now ..

The first one with the couple walking toward the camera, it seems the camera got bored after so long and went back to the resting preset

Yes if you consider 23 seconds of tracking in ideal conditions too long.

Tracking is set for 90 seconds

No excuse

I don't consider it ideal, I think there is an issue with the auto tracking. Unless the target moves out of range (clearly not the case in this instance), the camera should track for the set amount of time before returning to home preset, at least in theory
