Ad110 time stamps
I've had the ad110 installed for a few weeks and am really liking things so far. One weird quirk I'm noticing is the timestamp on recordings - via the app, I have 24 hr time turned off, but all recordings/live views have the time stamp reading as 24 hr/military time. Is there a way to turn this off (again, its set to 'off' via the app) so the timestamps read normal/12hr times?
Re: Ad110 time stamps
@Frankenkj03 - I've always kept my AD110 (and all other cameras) on military time but I was unable to duplicate your issue. (Running firmware 200702).
Live view and recording playback properly showed 12-hour time in both the SmartHome app and VLC. However, the timestamp was missing AM/PM, which is not good. All the playback and history timelines in the SH app remained mil time.
Sorry, I have no idea why 12-H doesn't work for you unless you are on a different firmware version. Good luck with an Amcrest Support request.

Re: Ad110 time stamps
followup... Try running this CGI API command:
<ip_addr>/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=getConfig&name=Locales.TimeFormat
This is the response for military time:
table.Locales.TimeFormat=yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss
The response for 12-Hour time changes the capitalized HH to lower case hh:
table.Locales.TimeFormat=yyyy-MM-dd hh:mm:ss
There isn't an option to enable the display of AM or PM in 12Hour time. That should be done automatically by the firmware and appears to be something Amcrest devs forgot to implement.
If for some reason your config is not returning hh:mm:ss after you turn off mil time in the SH app, you can then try to set the TimeFormat via the API. Let me know if you need the command for that.
