Hi,

On my side, I am currently using XMeye CMS for Windows to control the NVR.

The image is streaming okay, just the pan/tilt that is not working.

It would be good to have the issue resolved for CMS, so that I don't need to switch to different control software.

Hello there  @Solla-topee and @Mrs_S 

I'm using Frigate as my NVR, it's been working fine with the cameras in previous firmware versions latest one working fine was 1.1.4,

The only other way I was able to check for PTZ capabilites not working with firmware 1.3.1 was with Python library ONVIFCamera please see below for details,

Could you let us know if a fix is coming to restore the functionality?

Thanks for the support, Looking forward for your response!
