Testers needed for Dahua/Lorex/Amcrest cameras

[toxuin]

Dahua is a big manufacturer who makes cameras under many different brands, most of which share the same API.

I do not own any Dahua-compatible cameras, but seems like Dahua Event API has stark similarities to Hikvision API, so I thought it would be great to support them too.

I currently need someone with a Dahua/Amcrest/Lorex/other Dahua-OEM brand camera to test the server implementation.

If you experience any problems with your Dahua-API cameras - please report in issues. If you DON'T have any trouble - please let me know about it in this thread!

I would appreciate if someone with a Dahua-API camera could give some feedback.

Please don't forget to include your camera model 😄

Thank you!

Testing with Amcrest IP2M-841B and will post results.

Hi @jimmyhideous!

I believe I've found the root cause of the bug where it just exits and I've pushed a new version to docker hub. If you can, please retest and let me know the outcome.

Thanks for your help!
