I was attempting to have the DB folder on the SSD (Drive C:) and all video files stored on the HDD (D:). I discovered a non valid path mistakenly entered (fat fingered) for the Alerts location. Once corrected, it seems to be working now. Thank you.

Finally got around to updating from BI4 to BI5 today. Still a novice user. I have set up the cameras to "Continuous Record + Trigger". In addition to taking a snapshot and sending a text message with snapshot. Motion detection is working, image is created and sent. However I get the error...

Hello group. My system has been working so well over the passed few years I have not needed to seek help from the gurus on this forum in a while. I have a remote security system all run on solar, batteries, and LT E modem. I access my camera streams via p2p or direct connection using Zerotier...

I'm running a headless BI machine. I access cameras and recordings typically through the BI webpage interface. I still would like to know if the talk function is available through the BI webpage. In BI 4 there is not an icon for a microphone, only speaker. The sound from supported cameras on...

Does work on the BI webpage or only on the windows machine running BI?

Update. I got two way audio to work with the Smart PSS application on windows I would like to know if it is possible to make two way audio (talk and listen non-duplex) with either the Dahua web server or the BI webserver? I'm still using BI 4, would BI 5 help? Searching to make the interface...

I had put my front Door camera project on hold for many months, now back at it. I purchased a HFW1831C-PIR and modified it so it can be used with an external speaker. That was successful. I have tested with the alarm hooked to an amplified speaker (extremely load). However, I can't seem to...

Well, a little heat, prying, and patience, the front plastic cover came off. Four hidden screws held everything together. Removed board and solder on extension wires to the existing internal speaker wires and ran them outside the housing. Hopefully I can get an external amplified speaker...

1831C mini bullet - confirmed My only guess is the camera attaches to the housing with screws hidden under the front black plastic/glass. Anyone done this type of surgery before. (heat gun, suction cups, ?)

Not sure how to open this bullet camera up. Dahua did a pretty good job keeping someone from getting in. There has to be a way, no one would make the internals inaccessible.

Just purchased this camera. My plan like others is to use it for a front door cam and utilize the two way audio. Has anyone attempted to hook it up to an external amplified speaker? I have not opened it up yet.

Config tool can find the camera but unsuccessful trying to flash. Cant establish connection. I believe I don't have any open ports into the camera. Have tried multiple versions of the config tool. Not that familiar with config tool. May need some other means of flashing.

Well... I kept digging and now it is doubtful I'm getting out of the hole without substantial assistance. To recap, and correct a previous post I have always been on firmware : DH_SD-Mao-Rhea_MultiLang_NP_Stream3_IVS_V2.623.0000000.7.R.181124.bin Hoping to correct the problem I was having...

Mao-Rhea_EngSpnFrn_N_Stream3_IVS_V2.600.0000.2.R.20170905 [PTZ]General_SD49XXXS-HN_V3.02.93.R.170518 Latest firmware shown above was installed. Incidentally it wast the same fw that came with unit. No change after reflashing. Webservice shuts down after time - video transmission with BI...

Update and observation. I changed the ip address to something other than the default. The camera stayed connected over 24 hrs using the smartPSS program. However the second I tried to access the webserver through a browser the camera rebooted. It did come back online eventually. Sure...
