I have an Amcrest IP8M-T2499E running the Dahua firmware DH_IPC-HX5X3X-Rhea_MultiLang_NP_Stream3_V2.800.0000014.0.R.191203. It's been working fine for about a year, but I've recently started seeing an issue. I have it setup to it logs to a nas/samba share. On the samba share, I have the root folder and then a subfolder for each camera, where all the dav's and jpg's end up. It looks like this:

.\driveway\2021-06-12\
.\porch\2021-06-12\
...and so on...

Fairly recently, I've noticed that there are temp files that are getting written to the root but not being removed or cleaned up. It looks like this:

.\driveway\2021-06-12\
.\porch\2021-06-12\
.\_fdyu81
.\_vh7d6
..and so on...

The files are successfully being written to the correct locations, but it seems like they are never being removed from the root folder. Has anybody seen this before? Is it samba or the camera that isn't cleaning it up? If I delete the files they will continue to be written. But if I reboot the cameras and delete the files, then they get written to the correct subfolder instead. This makes me think it's the camera and not samba.

Thanks!
