Composer Pro no longer allows camera IP address changes?
Hi
I've been successfully running 10 Hikvision IP cameras with Control4 but had to change the static IP of one of them this weekend. I went through Composer Pro version 3.2.1-589001-res after changing the IP on the camera, it has the Gary Newman patch for the Composer Pro config to prevent it "dialing home" - on startup it gives an error that certain online functionality will not be available but so far the only issue I've found is that you can't update Composer Pro itself via the menu, otherwise it works great.
Today I discovered that I cannot edit any of the IP addresses in the Hikvision camera drivers, they're all greyed out. Even adding a new driver defaults to 127.0.0.1 and is greyed out. I'm running an EA3 with 3.2.1.593279-res and haven't found a newer version of Composer Pro so I doubt there is a version mismatch issue. Composer Home on another laptop has the same issue, although I think it may not be an editable field with Home anyway.
Any ideas? Is this possibly related to the patch? Something else I've missed? The Hikvision drivers are all up to date. I unfortunately can't recall the last version of director I was using when I was able to edit these fields. The other cameras continue to function although I can't edit their IP's.
in C4, go to connections, and the tab at the top, network, then in the menu of the hardware devices in the center (the same location you would find the EA-3, EA-1, or any other network device that uses UUID or IP, and right-click the IP camera and edit the IP there instead.
Ah great, thanks! IP changed. I still can't connect to the camera for some reason so will try to trace that, but at least the IP is correct. Appreciate the help.
