Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good camera; terrible documentation

The camera itself seems to be of good quality, it was easy to set up basic things to use with their app but I bought these specifically to use with the nvr. I spent all day trying to get it to work. The seller answered the question with the general Steam settings for receiving rtsp videos. That's great, but the camera's username is required for the transfer. Guess what, neither the information on the tag nor the name you give the camera is its username. In an attempt to do further research, I downloaded their PC software "Toolkit" from the official website. I had to reload the download for over 30 minutes due to server errors. After I receive it, you will also need a username. Great. Well, I finally figured it out with his old-fashioned guesswork. After exhausting all possible combinations of information from the tag as well as from the camera settings in the main app, I tried "admin" and the password I assigned to the camera and to my shock it worked. Put this pretty important information in a manual, in an online FAQ, or carve it on a chicken bone and toss it in a box! wtf. In fact, it ate most of the day. If it wasn't for this BS you would get 5 stars because it's a really good camera. The trick is that, as far as I can tell, the user can't change the username. He wouldn't even need a bunch of extra instructions, just the username = admin is chalked out somewhere.

Pros
  • Full set
Cons
  • Long time
