Hallo zusammen,

ich habe dasselbe Problem. Ich habe 2 WiFi-Kameras Tapo C200, die ich natürlich immer gut pflege und auf dem neusten Stand halte.

Nach dem Firmware-Update auf Version 1.1.7 gibt es nun ein aufdringliches Wasserzeichen unten links.

@Tapo: Bitte das Wasserzeichen sofort wieder entfernen oder wenigstens einstellbar machen. Sowas geht gar nicht.

This is absolutely ridiculous. Why would you put a FORCED watermark on a camera that is marketed as a SECURITY camera?

There is zero reason for people to know what brand of camera we are using for our security systems.

If you really insist, at least make it optional...

@kyo 

well said. This is not just annoying, it's also a security risk. 
I will buy another brand ASAP. No other maker has watermark on their camera feed as far as a I know. 

@Smid I've just upgraded the firmware on my C200 and was surprised with this bs. I agree, forced watermark is unacceptable. I want it removed (or made optional) asap.

I agree with all!

I was amazed how great the camera is and recommend (and they bought) to my colleges. But this watermark! UNACCEPTABLE!

You have no right to put watermark on the feed. We own the camera it is not on trial!

TP-Link this is a bad move. Why do you want to kill such a great product? WHY?

Completly agree!

This is a security issue, an it was imposed without notice!

The firmware update description didn't mentioned the embedded watermark 🙁

I want it removed or made optional at least.

@Smid @TP-Link Completely agree with everyone so far. I was quite happy with my C200 until this.

First, information about the new "functionality" was not included in the firmware update information. Second, it is a paid product: it should just not have a watermark. Third, it can block relevant points in the picture. Fourth, and most important, it is a security issue (as others have mentioned, we do not want other people to know what brand of camera we are using).

Please make the watermark optional through the camera settings menu (and if so, let us use a custom watermark).

I am, as others are disappointed to see the tapo bug appear in the lower left corner of frame, it renders the vision unusable for use as a POV camera in a multi camera setup as it's now the only one that's different.

This needs to be made menu switchable at the very least, I was about to purchase a few C310s but they also suffer the same problem. If the marketing dept thought this was a good idea they've failed. This will backfire, leave the firmware updates to engineering not marketing.
