Hey Folks, hope someone can help me... I have an English NTSC Dahua IPC-HDBW2300R-Z dome camera with firmware 2.420.0000.3.R, build : 2014-07-23 and while the camera works well standalone, good integration with a VMS such as ExacqVision is problematic, as frames are dropped during recordings. My other two Dahua cameras (IPC-HDB4300C & IPC-HFW4300S) both on firmware 2.420.0000.0.R, build : 2014-04-19 are working and recording perfectly in the VMS. I did a test and upgraded my IPC-HFW4300S to firmware 2.420.0005.0.R.20141205, and interestingly it exhibited the same recording issues as the IPC-HDBW2300R-Z until I put it back on 2.420.0000.0.R.20140419. It must be that the VMS is not compatible with newer firmware than the base v2.420.0000 I therefore attempted to also downgrade the IPC-HDBW2300R-Z but none of the "IPC-HX3(2)XXX_Eng_N" or "IPC-HX5(4)XXX_Eng_N" firmwares I tried worked. Does anyone have/know of any alternate English NTSC firmware for the IPC-HDBW2300R-Z camera? Thanks in advance.
