Amcrest IP Camera Motion Detect

Just a heads up a couple of things.

  1. Amcrest have disabled basic auth which is what your links are using in newer firmwares. If you upgrade the firmware of the camera it may/will break this from working. Info on this is around if you search in google or the amcrest forum.

  2. I am writing a binding using an Amcrest camera and have to support digest auth to get my camera running. Binding is here and I am days away from having motion, audio, card full and heaps of other alarms working.
    New Binding: IpCamera

  3. Sending a password in plain text or with base64 with HTTP is not best practice. Try using HTTPS instead as that should be a simple change for you until the binding is ready to handles this.

If there are any features you wish to see in the binding feel free to post.
