GS90C new firmware

[Adytzu]

I found here a new update, from yesterday. Anybody have some more information? What they changed?
If I see, the szdome.com is down.

Hmmm...I found in archive just .bin file, without .elf. It is ok?

This "new" version is the old 1138 version, BUT the date stamp is different.

The version from Dome

You can download the version with .elf (which it's useful when you brick the camera) it from: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bw8LfG-2RaLhQUlOQ3BOai00Ymc/edit?pli=1

The Google Drive update has "2" files, amboot_hal_kernel_romfs_dsp_re & firmware.bin, I can't pick just the firmware.bin but only hit the middle top download button, it is "1" file that has 19.3MB with windows logo & it is a rar file. I refomatted the micro SD with Dome camera, inserted the card into the computer, tried to open the windows logo file but unsuccessful, copied & paste the windows logo file to micro card, then inserted the micro into the camera, nothing happens??????

Can someone tell me exactly how to download the file from google drive all the way to the camera? Do I need both or just the firmware file?

Thanks.

You just have to extract the archive (using WinRAR, 7 Zip, Pea Zip, etc.) and then copy the file "firmware.bin" on the root of the SD card. When you'll start the camera a message appears giving two options: installing and cancelling the update. Keep in mind that you'll need to connect the camera to some power source.

Thanks for the quick reply, can you recommend me any website to download those WinRAR, 7 Zip, Pea Zip, etc.?
as I don't know which website is safe or has virus?

• For 7-Zip, http://www.7-zip.org/ If your system is 64 bit or you don't know, then choose .msi 64-bit x64 and if it doesn't work to install it, download .exe 32-bit x86
• If you don't like 7-Zip, you can use Pea-Zip from here http://sourceforge.net/projects/peazip/files/5.6.0/peazip-5.6.0.WINDOWS.exe/download
• WinRAR is a shareware, meaning that after 30 days it will display a message asking you to buy a license (other than this, it's perfectly functional). You can download it from here: http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm The same story: if your system is 64 bit then choose WinRAR x64 (64 bit) 5.21, and if it doesn't work to install it, download WinRAR x86 (32 bit) 5.21.

Thanks Tobby for your great recommendations, it finally works.
But the night background still very dark, the new update not helping any, may I know how to adjust the exposure value?
Thanks.

I think it's the other @Tobi@s.

Changing the brightness and the contrast settings of your player may improve night videos:
