For your information. I used Windows 10 64Bit for Downgrade. I onlystill have problems with rndis network connections after restarting the camera, also on Win7 64.
Hello everybody!
I have a very important question. Last year I bought Flir E6. Can I also flash it as E4?
Certainly, you can NOT.
But you can re-flash it as FLIR E6
Seriously, what hardware/ software versions do you have? Pls. take a look in the menu and write us about the details.
Yes I believe this cam can be hacked with the latest hack to get 320x240 resolution. Although, the hack was designed for the E4, so there are potential problems of incompatibility. If you are handy, you can adapt one, and then install the extended menu. However, if you are not too experienced I recommend that somebody help you.
The Flir E4 arrived today, and it has the 2.3.0 firmware. Now lets do the Hack.
Hack Done! Used Win32 Xp.
Now back to the Windows 8.1, installed Flir IR Camera Player 2.3.5, but it can't get image. Anyone with this problem?
Is it possible to record the live stream video with flir tools?
Thanks
Flir Tools should live stream any E4 via USB. Check you didn't leave the camera in RNDIS mode.

Yes, i can get live stream from flir tools, my question is if it is possible to record the live stream?
Live stream does record with VLC, it is just another video device to it.

Here we go, did a quick one. Zipped to avoid the annoying filename quirks of SMF. Just extract the inner file, which did not compress at all.

thans for you rtime SeanB.
Are you using USB ou RNDIS?
Plain USB, though I am using Linux, where the camera shows up as a video device naturally. Still have to get it running properly on Windows, looks like i will have to dig up a Win7 instance instead of the XP one, which I only use when absolutely needed. Hint, it was last booted in 2009 according to the logs......

I'm at work, but as soon i get to home i will try in win 8.1 and them i give feedback!
My E4 works with Flir IR camera player. I'm using Windows 7 64bit ( i used it to hack my camer too, and it works, i do it several times
).
But the captured video is mirrored, i don't know why.
I bought my E4 today and sucsesfully downgraded to 2.3.0 from factory installed 2.8.0. Then I followed
http://fubar.gr/hacking-the-flir-e4/ instructions and semibricked my E4 meaning it never showed in ipconfig and now its not showing in any program. I think I killed its USB interface. E4 works fine but I can't get USB connection establish. I think its stuck on Set_RNDIS_permament.fif.
It only shows up in Device manager (see pic.)
Can someone help?
EDIT/UPDATE:
Everything is fine now, I just forget to install driver pack... Now I have E4 fully updated to E8 specs and resolution!
Thank You guys for your hard work!
Try disconnecting your computer from the network to avoid possible IP address conflict, then connect the camera and check with ipconfig if you have camera IP now showing. If it is there you then can connect to the camera via ftp and delete file
flashfs/system/appcore.d/factory.d/zrndis.rsc
This will return the camera to USB mode after reboot.

SeanB, I got it. It worked well in VLC. Thanks
2 Vincent,
please give the details... which OS you are running (including SPs)?
What is exact FLIR Tools version you used?
2 Vincent,

What is exact FLIR Tools version you used?
Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit SP1 on Dell Latitude D420 laptop
FLIR Tools Version 4.1.14066.1001
FileZilla 3.14.1 and Python 2.7
where did you download the 2.3.0 firmware from and how did you get the unit to downgrade from 2.8.0?
Just start reading from page ~500
Hi guys, I must be missing something on the downgrade process from 2.8.0 to 2.3.0. I've read all the pages from 500 to current, as well as the various guides. I'm following the PDF that matmoe uploaded with instructions on how to downgrade the firmware. However, in Flir Tools 4.1.14066.1001 when I try and go to Help and then Update, it simply tries to update Flir Tools to 5.3.1XX, not my camera. I can't get around that. I've tried disabling my network connection as well, but then I just get an error. How do I simply downgrade the camera firmware and not Flir Tools itself?
FYI, using Windows 7 32-bit and a Flir E4 1.2L with Serial 639XXXXX. My camera is currently in standard USB mode, not RNDIS.
Thanks!
edit: I went through the upgrade to 5.3.1XX and then was able to perform the firmware downgrade to 2.3.0 successfully. I didn't see this mentioned anywhere yet. I'm completing the remaining steps as we speak.
