Newer firmware on RLC-823A than available on website

labs

Hello,

I searched the forums but didn't see this addressed, apologies if it is covered somewhere.

I recently purchased a Reolink RLC-823A camera and applied the firmware listed as the latest from the Reolink website Download Center support wizard. At the time I thought it was odd that the existing firmware looked like it was newer than the one I was applying, but I figured the website was authoritative.

I bought two more RLC-823As and both of these also have this newer firmware, so I thought I'd ask about it.

The website lists the latest firmware as:
"v3.1.0.956_22041511_v1.0.0.30"

The cameras are coming with firmware version:
"v3.1.0.989_22051911_v1.0.0.30"

So you see, it appears the manufacturing line is installing a newer version, built May 19, 2022, v3.1.0.989.
But the website has a firmware from April 15, 2022, v3.1.0.956

The trailing version is identical, v1.0.0.30 for both.

I'm not sure what this means but naturally I want all the latest fixes and features, and I'm using this with BlueIris. Is there a problem with the default firmware, is it somehow fake? The security sticker on the boxes were intact.

Is the website firmware list out of date?

Thank you,
Benjamin

Okay, and I have a RLC-823A bought in January 2022 with Version "v3.1.0.956_22041511_v1.0.0.30" now. But how can I install the newer one "v3.1.0.989_22051911_v1.0.0.30"?
