    Updating laview firmware to hikvision

    I have the similar problem (Do not upgrade to 5.6.0!!! Much worser exposure/focus performance) Looks like hikvision quietly changed the way their TFTP works.

    SOLVED: Do not upgrade to 5.6.0!!! Much worser exposure/focus performance

    Thank you for joining this thread. I'm posting Wireshark dumps from the host machine. Looks like my camera is looking for 192.168.1.128, so I added 192.168.1.128 as a second IP to the VM (the first one is 192.0.0.128). But apart from ARP (camera looking for 192.168.1.128), nothing happens...

    I own a Hikvision camera. Today I decided to upgrade it from 5.5.3 to 5.6.0 and noticed that now it's night vision is very poor. Everything is much darker, "slow shutter" doesn't work and the focus can't keep hold of things. On top of that I can't downgrade back to 5.5.3 from 5.6.0.
