Amcrest IP5M-T1179EW

Post by TruckerDave »

I just received a pair of these today. Within 15 minutes I had the first mounted and running in ZM. I'll edit this post and change/add information as I learn it. One can access the camera GUI directly by typing the camera's IP address into a browser.

Software Version V2.820.00AC000.0.R, Build Date: 2022-03-25
WEB Version V3.2.1.1092977
ONVIF Version 20.06(V2.9.1.1000915)

Once I had my server and ZM configured correctly, ONVIF worked like a charm.

Camera login user/password = admin/admin
Video Settings in Camera.....
..... Main: Encode Mode (H.264), Smart Codec (OFF), Res (2592x1944), Frame Rate (20), Bit Rate Type (CBR), Bit Rate (6144), Frame Interval (40)
..... Sub : Encode Mode (H.264), Res (640x480), Frame Rate (7), Bit Rate Type (CBR), Bit Rate (256), Frame Interval (14)

In Zoneminder.....
MAIN URL = rtsp://user:pass@CAMERA_IP:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0
SUB URL = rtsp://user:pass@CAMERA_IP:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=1

ONVIF Main = rtsp://user:pass@CAMERA_IP:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=0&unicast=true&proto=Onvif
ONVIF Sub = rtsp://user:pass@CAMERA_IP:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=1&unicast=true&proto=Onvif

FFmpeg
Mocord
Camera Passthrough

To add video to your own html page: ( I would acknowledge the person who originally shared this. However, I looked at so many different pages/threads that I have forgotten which page it was on. If you are the author, thank you!)

In ZM Settings under System set the following
OPT_USE_AUTH (checked)
AUTH_TYPE = builtin
AUTH_RELAY = none

Create an html file and enter ....

Code: Select all

<html><body bgcolor="black">
<img src="http://ZM_IPaddress/zm/cgi-bin/nph-zms?mode=jpeg&monitor=CHANGE&scale=49&maxfps=5&buffer=1000&user=CHANGE&pass=CHANGE">
</body>
</html>
Anywhere you see CHANGE in the URL, well, change it. Scale is a percentage. Set to whatever fits your screen. Or meets your needs.

If you have a same or similar camera, feel free to toss any tips/tricks/advice my way. I'm new to all this and will take any help I can get. :D
