DCS-8000LH - Firmware v2.01.03 Released

<< < (3/3)

GreenBay42:
Agreed.

You may want to contact tech support/customer service in your region. I do not have contacts for D-Link Europe.

RTSP is being used to communicate from the app to camera so the technical specs (datasheet) may include it as supported. Technically it is but obviously not for "public use" and it should not be listed. I will contact the camera group and see if they can forward this to the right people in Europe.

This 'update' broke the cameras as far as I am concerned.

As you can no longer use external apps such as Synology Surveillance Station, iSpy or motionEyeOS they became pretty much useless. To force users into some poorly designed app and subscription service is in my opinion a Brutus move, plain back stabbing.

kamsvag:
Any way to downgrade firmware to a previous version?

Yes.  It is still possible to enable the web server in the 2.xx.xx firmwares (tested with v2.01.03 and v2.02.02). THis web server supports firmware upgrades and downgrades using the http://CAMERA-IP/config/firmwareupgrade.cgi API endpoint.  You can also do the downgrade using the /sbin/fwupdate tool from a shell on the camera, using either telnet or serial console to access it.

But if the reason for wanting to downgrade is simply to make the camera usable without the mydlink app/cloud, then I have even better news:  You can fix that without downgrading!

See https://github.com/bmork/defogger for more details than you might have known you wanted  :)

Bobone:
Your  repo is very impressive!
Although not really accessible for my skills. :'(

(I left my old device exposed to some rain. Now it doesn't work and would have been willing to try anything.)
