My new cam has "2000-01-03" plus time. I can't find a panel in the web interface to update this field. Anyone out there already done this? Thanks.

    To enable or disable the time display, it's Setting -> Video -> Overlay

    To actually set the date/time, it's Setting -> System -> General -> Date&Time

    On this screen, I recommend you enable the "NTP" option and specify the server as "time.apple.com". This will keep the camera's date and time up to date, by regularly updating it from Apple's time server.

    Interesting that it is off by one hour.

    This is probably due to daylight savings time - you will need to configure this in the camera as well.
