    New PTZ camera, How to setup auto tracking

    Just installed a new PTZ6C2M-45x and added to my NVR. This thing is a beast. Great picture and nice smooth scrolling. I want to setup the auto track/zoom but never done one. I assume it's in the event tab. I already enabled video detection and smart motion but that doesn't do it. Is the a...

    Just installed PSS Lite. Has anyone found a fix for resizing the window? I need to make it bigger without going full screen. Otherwise i will stick with the old SmartPSS.

    ***PSA for those with a New DAHUA NVR with Built-in PoE switch

    I have 2x 10TB drives and it's as if I have 20TB. 26 cameras recording 24/7 holds 3 weeks for me with the resolution (all different) I have them at.

    Q-See Closing Doors Jan 31st 2021 No More Remote Viewing, Options to fix

    Did you do a proper shut down by turning off the NVR within the software not just unplugging? I had one fry from a power outage this way before adding a ups. Also, let the nvr power up for a few minutes before plugging cameras in, and then one at time waiting about 10 minutes in-between.

    Q-See Closing Doors Jan 31st 2021 No More Remote Viewing, Options to fix

    I just noticed it's BNC not IP. mat200 knows better than me but I believe you have to start over with IP stuff. I just threw all my Q-see BNC cameras and NVRs in the trash.

    Q-See Closing Doors Jan 31st 2021 No More Remote Viewing, Options to fix

    You need to use a different app such as DMSS. One of my NVRs is a Q-see and it's working fine through any app other than Q-See view. if tried a bunch but like DMSS.

    It never occurred to me that anyone in this forum was still opening themselves up using P2P. You could also port forward.;)

    Mobile App

    I use DMSS with my android phone, no issues. It accesses two NVRs. I use OpenVPN when away to see the cameras.

    Yes, I use DMSS. There are a bunch that work. It's not the app that allows remote viewing so pretty much all of them work. You have to set up a home VPN through your router like Open VPN. Read the entire thread or search for "open VPN"...

    Replace failing hard drive

    Yes, you can clone one drive to another but cloning is not just using copy command. The assumption I made is he had only one drive installed and need to replace it. If he installed a second hard drive he could clone then unplug/ remove the old one. When it clones it still creates the image...
