    DHW2449T-S-PRO vs S-PV

    Even if i can fix these cameras, the PCB is too wide (12cm) to fit into most of those long external housing.

    DHW2449T-S-PRO vs S-PV

    @Revo2Maxx do you have any pics of your converting dome and stuffing it into an outdoor housing. The biggest issue of dome is how dirty it gets outdoor even when mounted under the soffix. This place is relatively dry but still expose to bugs and dust. There is too much acrylic to clean compare...

    DHW2449T-S-PRO vs S-PV

    Oh well, I had some good fun with these 10 cameras. I was using 9 and had a single redundancy to swap one out if issue. But the numbers that failed required me to replace 6 of them with 2MB-1/2.8" Hikvision not as good as the 2MB-1/1.8". Then I just got 3 brand new Dahua 2449T-S-PV and PRO and...

    SFTP is more secure but more overhead so a little slower. NAS is much faster as long as you set trust within your network, that is the only thing that is securing your setup.

    DHW2449T-S-PRO vs S-PV

    @Revo2Maxx thanks for a good detail reply. I been replacing the 470uF with a 25V version (versus original is 10V that I can't find at the cheap close by electronic store). They tend to work for a bit. But what I did notice if I kept it plug for a long while in when it stopped working, the unit...

    DHW2449T-S-PRO vs S-PV

    Good idea since I have 10 of these .https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1162153-REG/hikvision_darkfighter_series_ds_2cd4526fwd_izh_2mp.html. I made a mistake they are only 1/1.8". These were dying and I was able to replace a single cap that was hissing and bulging. But they only work for a...

    DHW2449T-S-PRO vs S-PV

    More reason to flash it now. Tried connecting to my freenas FTP and SFTP.. Both fail the test connect function. SFTP shows a "Right Verification Failure "and FTP shows "Server connection failure." I got 3 new Dahua to play with 2449T-S-PV, 2449T-S-PRO and a 3849H-AS-PV. Both the PRO and 8MB has...

    DHW2449T-S-PRO vs S-PV

    I really hate how FTP/SFTP does not capture the video the same way as when writing to NAS. NAS is more continuous recording while FTP takes clip and sends it. I might just take the jump and try to force update with the PRO firmware and see. It is just software. The only issue may be it does not...

    DHW2449T-S-PRO vs S-PV

    Yeah normally, i i would never update any FW not meant for another. However, The name of the file sort of matches the model. Though from the web page description indicate otherwise with different model name. This is the name for the HW2449T-S-PV...

    DHW2449T-S-PRO vs S-PV

    Hi, Recently was given a DHW2449T-S-PRO and a DHW2449T-S-PV. Based on search, the main difference PRO has 1/1.8" vs 1/2.9" as far as I can tell. However, software/firmware wise, the PRO has a modern blue theme web interface and the all important feature record to NAS that I am looking for. The...

    LTS CMIP7422-28M 2MP dome camera info

    Would love to put Hikvision camera to get H265 encoding or at the very least their H264+ codec option. LTS seems to have disable H264+ with their firmware. Recordings are much large means less historical archive.

    LTS CMIP7422-28M 2MP dome camera info

    Hi I came upon several of these cameras. I was wondering how good these are. The GUI looks very similar to Hikvision. Is it an OEM rebadged? Does anyone know the equivalent Hikvision model? Maybe it may be possible to flash the Hikvision firmware to get H265 feature.

    Help reviving DS-2CD4526FWD-IZH

    Hi, I got 10 of these DS-2CD4526FWD-IZH from a company upgrade. These were in service over 10 years. But recently 4 of them had the dreaded cap hiss. All 4 had the same bulging cap 470uF 10V. I replaced them with 470uF 25V. However, I was only able to recover 2 out of the 4. I am not sure if...

    Anyone interested in HIKVISION DS-2CD4526FWD-IZH?

    Yes if you search. These are 2MP but with 1/1.6" sensor. The sensor are huge and collect lots of light. If you been reading on this forum, they are the real dark fighter. Don't get taken in by megapixel. And yes they are poe ipcam. And yes they are also varifocal. These new were 500 each.
