Make sure you have the right firmware. As I understand there are NVR5xxx-4ks2 v1 and V2.
By reading information that comes with the firmware, some firmware works on both, but not all of them. I wonder why they do these things... :/
Kind regards, demesmaeker
After I installed the 2022-07-29 version, I could not downgrade to ANY other version. Not even the one from 2022-03-22.
Others have this problem as well.
(My original stock firmware was from 2021)
I upgraded any way...I couldnt help it :) It did not solve my problem, but I solved my problem some other way.
I was thinking of your problem.
Maybe you can import an old config file? (with cameras in it, that are using "custom")
Or did you try this already?
Kind regards, Jackdaw
True. I wanted to downgrade only for one reason: Because my camera names were all IPC and I couldn't change it. It was probably going to work with an older version of the NVR firmware (others said so)
Since I found a workaround, I am happy to stay on the very latest version.
In stead of...
Ok. I will write a quick guide now. I have lots of chinese cameras. They are those cameras that only work with internet explorer... Horrible GUI. If I go to update on the webserver of the camera, it says "cannot connect". Probably because the update server has changed name or so ;)
I never...
With the anger that fueled me, I got this finally solved! ;)
Because others also have this problem, I will write a guide on how I got it to work here later this weekend!
I took a gamble and updated firmware on my NVR-5232-4KS2.
I am now running V4.002.0000000.6.R (2022-11-15)
Unfortunately, the problem that it will not name my non-Dahua cameras correctly still exists :( The cameras are called IPC and I cannot change it.
I tried the following:
Changing the...
I didn't test the upgrade from yesterday yet. But I will. But I rather downgrade to the version that worked and then never upgrade again.
Thank you for your time. Greetings Jackdaw... ... Dohle ;)
But I can't downgrade to DH_NVR5XXX-4KS2_MultiLang_V4.002.0000000.3.R.220322.bin either.
That is also 4.002, just like the one I am running now.
I am not alone with this. I think no one can downgrade from the same version I am running.
Update 2023-08-21: Megteh.eu contacted me and apologized. My email was filtered by mistake, so no one saw my messages
I bought my NVR from Megateh.eu. They have very good recensions, but they didnt answer at all when I emailed them for support :( So I feel I am on my own.
The problem was not...
