Hi Fred - ok, your NVR is different from mine, because I don't have that logo.

First some message-board etiquette: "It did not work" is extremely lazy and professional on your part. What precisely did you do, how far did you get, and what happened when you tried?

I'm attaching some screenshots:
1. Main panel
2. Live view. Notice the tiny time-date string in the upper right. If you click on it nothing happens, which is why it is safe to run a script that clicks it.
3. Live view with Chrome developer tools docked to the right edge and the Console pane open. When I tried to paste the script, Chrome gave me a security warning about pasting code. t asks me to type "allow pasting" which I did. After you paste the code. F12 will close the window if you want to, or leave it open if you're curious. It doesn't matter.

You can see that this is the code pasted:

setInterval(function(){
document.getElementById('tbtext-1036').click();
}, 30000);

Substituting your information:

setInterval(function(){
document.getElementById('main_logo').click();
}, 30000);

Thunderstorm here, I have to post this now. New instance of Chrome.

And while we are complaining about Amcrest software flaws, lets also talk about this buggy message board which forces me to log in at random when posting and wipes out my message, forcing me to start over.

Can't find how to upload the screenshots either. I put them here temporarily: https://selfdefinition.org/amcrest/
