Hi everyone,
I have a Avtech 792 and 2 issues with it:
1) It seams to ramdomly reset when I try to playback the videos when following things were set during recording:
- recording with motion trigger only
- prerecording on
- best possible resolution/quality
--> When I want to playback a scene from the list of videos, everything seems to be OK until I can read: "Frame End" and the playback stops. But there are more video scenes after this recorded on the machine! When I try then to playback one of those broken scenes I see just a black screen and the recording time stamp says 00:00:00!! I can try this 2 or 3 times, then the machine reboots!
This can be reproduced as often as I want.
When recording permanently (not only when motion trigger is active) the recordings seem to be OK. Playback in FF 32x mode works like a charm.
Also it seems to work when I reduce the resolution to CIF, but I need the high resolution - and I bought already the high resolution cameras and the DVR has the feature to record at this high resolution with motion capturing...
But I need the feature to record only after motion trigger action.
I guess the problem is synchronisation (videocodec, HD, whatever) when recording starts... Has anyone the same problem? It is already the 2nd machine of this model that I have at home - so it's definetly a bug and not a broken board, or something else.
2) I forgot my password of the LAN Admin Account (maybe I also changed the username? - can't remember...). I already tried to hardreset the chip, as scorpion described at his webpages, but this didn't work at all - the settings were still there after shortcutting the 2 pins. I tried several times with different tools to produce the shortcut.
Any ideas???
My vendor doesn't want to communicate properly with me - he just wanted me to send the box to him (2x already!) The first time I got a brand new machine back, second time he upgraded the firmware to:
1133-1039-1009-1025-0A-0000
No comments, he just sent it back - both times! - I'm really fed up with him. I don't want to deal with my vendor any more, because he doesn't seem to know what to do with this machine.
The machine is a European (German) Model - don't know whether there are differences to the US Market, or not, but maybe...
Please help!
Thx in advance...
