Ive asked QSee support for some help on this but wanted to see if anyone else has ideas on this before I escalate this further with QSee support.
Ive had this QC8116 3MP NVR system from Costco for just over 1yr now. But I have these odd issues lately. I have the IPCOffline alarm setup to email me. Lately over the past few weeks I get this alarm daily, last night 4 times within a 1hr period and its just random as far as the camera in question. I have 14 cameras hooked up to this unit (9 are actual QSee cameras that came with the system and the other 5 are Dahua cameras). When I look at the actual log on the WebUI I see that during that exact timeframe, the NVR itself shuts down and boots back up every time. So that is problem 1, why is this NVR rebooting itself when there is no Auto Maintain setting enabled for this? Also in the log since we are talking about this issue, there are 100s if not 1000s of User Login and User Logout events practically every few seconds. When I click on the event, it tells me its 127.0.0.1 and user is Admin, but I can assure you no one is physically logging into this unit or doing it remotely that often. We have tried to completely factory reset this and this is still happening even after the factory reset (both the excessive logins in the log as well as the NVR rebooting around the same time i get the IPCOffline emails.).
The other less issue is that the Camera settings keep changing on its own. I have again 14 cameras. I have them set to just NORMAL on the configuration file option (on top right of when you go to the SETUP then IMAGE option in the Menu). That has the Saturation, Brightness, Contrast, Hue all set to 50. I notice it somehow changes itself to DAY on the configuration file option, HUE goes to 0, and then the image becomes fuzzy. If I change the HUE option back to 50, the image because sharp again and not fuzzy. If I wait about 5-10mins, it seems to self change itself again back to 0 on HUE. This happens on a number of my cameras and I cannot seem to narrow it down to a specific camera or set of cameras, it has happened on any of the 14. This is happening even after my Factory Reset which we did 2weeks ago. This is frustrating as its a 3Megapixel video, but when the Hue goes to 0, the image is very soft/fuzzy. Makes the video not high quality anymore. What I dont get is how Hue afects the sharpness of the video, in Photography Hue is the shade of a color, not sure what Qsee is using it as.
