[Bug] Enabling/disabling Via Web Service Automatically Turns Off Motion Tracking On Yi 2K Pro (Y623)
Bug: Enabling/Disabling via Web Service Automatically Turns Off Motion Tracking on Yi 2K Pro (Y623)
When using a web service to enable or disable the Yi 2K Pro (Y623) camera, a peculiar issue arises. The motion tracking feature, which is a crucial aspect of the camera's functionality, automatically turns off. This problem is not limited to a specific scenario but occurs consistently whenever the camera is enabled or disabled via a web service.
To reproduce this issue, follow these steps:
Step 1: Send a Request via a Browser or HTTP Client
Send a request to the camera's CGI interface using a browser or an HTTP client. The URL for this request is http://<IP_ADDRESS>/cgi-bin/camera_settings.sh?switch_on=yes
to enable the camera or http://<IP_ADDRESS>/cgi-bin/camera_settings.sh?switch_on=no
to disable it.
Step 2: Ensure Correct Authentication
Verify that the authentication setup is correctly configured and working. This is essential to ensure that the request is processed successfully.
Step 3: Observe the Camera's Response
After sending the request, observe the camera's response. The camera should turn on or off as expected, but the motion tracking feature should remain enabled. However, in this case, the motion tracking is automatically disabled.
Step 4: Verify the Issue's Scope
This issue did not occur on the previous Yi 1080p camera but started when switching to the Yi 2K Pro (Y623). This suggests that the issue might be specific to the Yi 2K Pro model.
Step 5: Exclude Other Scenarios
The issue does not occur when toggling the camera from the Kami app or the hack's web interface. This indicates that the problem is specific to web service requests.
If further assistance is required to debug this issue, please provide a dump, logs, or any other relevant information. This will help in identifying the root cause of the problem and finding a suitable solution.
While the exact cause of this issue is unknown, there are a few possible explanations:
- Incompatible Web Service Request: The web service request might be incompatible with the Yi 2K Pro camera's firmware, leading to the automatic disabling of motion tracking.
- Firmware Issue: The issue might be related to a firmware bug or incompatibility in the Yi 2K Pro camera.
- Configuration Problem: There might be a configuration issue with the camera's settings or the web service request that is causing the motion tracking to be disabled.
To resolve this issue, the following steps can be taken:
- Update Firmware: Ensure that the Yi 2K Pro camera's firmware is up-to-date. This might resolve any compatibility issues with the web service request.
- Modify Web Service Request: Modify the web service request to ensure that it is compatible with the Yi 2K Pro camera's firmware.
- Reconfigure Camera Settings: Reconfigure the camera's settings to ensure that motion tracking is enabled by default.
The issue of motion tracking being automatically disabled when enabling or disabling the Yi 2K Pro camera via a web service is a peculiar problem that requires further investigation. By following the steps to reproduce the issue and providing additional information, it is possible to identify the root cause of the problem and find a suitable solution.
