    Dahua NVR 5216-16P FTP upload weirdness

    Same here. It gets stuck uploading the same dav file again and again, even though it has been uploaded successfully before. If I remove the uploaded file, it does upload it again and keeps uploading it all over again. I had the problem on 215 firmware then on 216. Although on 216 at least it...

    NVR5XXX-4KS2 latest new firmware.

    I am running this new firmware (216) and it seems to be fine. I've switched back and forth 215<->216 at least twice, so it should be all right for you to test it - you can revert back. From new features I've noticed secure ftp, which did not work for me. The main reason that I upgraded was...

    Dahua DHI-NVR4208-8P - how to downgrade firmware

    Try downloading again maybe. Btw the bin file is actually a zip. If you change the extension to .zip you will be able ti verify integrity with WinRar or similar tools.

    Dahua DHI-NVR4208-8P - how to downgrade firmware

    My NVR5216-4KS2 allows downgrading and I've done it a few times. Furthermore going from V3.216 to V3.215 did not require config restore.

    Gmail. Dahua NVR.

    For you it is sending test emails periodically. Untick Health Enable to disable that.

    Gmail. Dahua NVR.

    Another piece of advice: don't use your normal gmail account, but open a new one specially for the task. This way you are not going to compromise security by giving your password to a chinese company, that no-one knows what is capable for. You can set up forwarding to your normal account if you...

    Gmail. Dahua NVR.

    I send emails to gmail with pictures from the NVR (NVR5216-4KS2). Although it does not work very robustly - sometimes the emails do not have pictures attached. I've found it handy to setup a filter so that the emails get deleted on arrival. If I want the check something they are stored for 30...

    Best practice for Time Sync/NTP on Dahua NVR and all the cameras

    I seem to have it working. If I manually set wrong time either on cameras on NVR, with time it gets corrected.

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    On my NVR (NVR5216-4KS2) it is certainly possible. You can set the PTZ to go to a preset on idle, and add a timed task to do a tour. Not sure if you can do this on the camera alone.

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    Did the brand new cable help? Just far fetched things to try: is your mains voltage within 10% of the norm? Don't you have devices with high interference by the cable?

    Best practice for Time Sync/NTP on Dahua NVR and all the cameras

    Can you please explain why you need to sync time to NVR manually? Because my setup, which is sync NVR with NTP, and sync all cameras on a signal from NVR, seems to work fine. Thanks.
