This model has a White Light and it is not working with this integration. It does work with video however it is not turning on the "Flood light:. Modifying the script at line 535 in init.py by adding or self.model.startswith("IP8M")

# supports_security_light function staring at line 530
def supports_security_light(self) -> bool:
        """
        Returns true if this camera has the red/blue flashing security light feature.  For example, the
        IPC-HDW3849HP-AS-PV does https://dahuawiki.com/Template:NameConvention
        """
        return "-AS-PV" in self.model or self.model == "AD410" or self.model.startswith("IP8M")

Added security light and illumination. Also, security light works with this in HA I can turn on and off with events from frigate. So, that is working good for me. I can check that in if that would be helpful. What is your checkin procedure?

I will keep messing with illumination as it should support 0 - 100 as other cameras do. Currently it is showing as a on / off switch only. This simple modify above at least made it usable with HA so that I can control via Frigate AI.

Thanks for the awesome integration I have been using for quite some time!

Just tested on 0.9.51 and it impacts the exact same lines.

Just tested on 0.9.54 the line has moved to 537 but otherwise it works just the same.
