    Cameras slow when plugged into Dahua NVR switch

    I have a very weird situation where cameras plugged into the dahua NVR switch are sort of skipping frames or is slowing down and then is speeding up when doing life view but when I plug the same cameras a normal network switch and then connect that switch to the NVR everything behaves as it...

    Dahua NVR and Camera Setup - Best Practice

    I'm having the same problem with a camera from empiretech, it was dropping out sometimes after a firmware update, then out of nowhere it died, it comes back with the IP 192.168.1.251. When it boots up, briefly I can get ping reponses on that IP address, like 6 seconds, then stops responding. At...

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    And the camera died again, out of nowhere. After a few attempts switching power on and off, it started responding to pings, then went dead completely. I'll have to climb the ladder again I guess tomorrow to try resetting it to factory again. Most likely will need to downgrade the firmware if I...

    Dahua NVR awkward playback of footage

    I also have a Blueiris, I've beee using it for the last 2 years+, but it needs Windows, cannot run in Linux, the client web app is pretty mediocre, I need a VPN to connect back to it remotely, the Android app is useless (the paid version). I eventually went to Scrypted, much nicer, but I pay...

    Dahua NVR awkward playback of footage

    Is there a better way to review/show/display recent footage recorded in a Dahua NVR? I found SmartPSS Lite is pretty bad with playback of recorded footage. You can't simply/quickly find an recent event and play it, you need to go to playback, search for a time period, then dig the events from...

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    Mine sometimes was not picking up humans/cars and missing alerts so I was hoping to fix those problems I've reset, no change, it shows as initialised under Dahua config tool, but I cannot initialise it, port 8088 is also open, but nothing responds. I'll leave it off for a while now to see if it...

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    Just updated it. no reset I'll power it off and wait a while to see if it comes back. If not, then I'll take it off the wall and try to reset using the factory reset button

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    I updated my bullet to latest version today, does it take a very long time to come back alive? It is responding to ping, but web interface nowhere to be seen and video streams also nowhere to be seen. Not sure what is best to do next.

    URGENT!!! There will be new DMSS 2.0 and new cloud account mode & new cloud video streaming

    I've got another NVR second hand from ebay DHI-NVR5432-16P-4KS2E, I cannot get pop up notifications on the android app, it does not send any notification whatsoever. Does anyone else here uses android and could shared some feedback about notifications?

    URGENT!!! There will be new DMSS 2.0 and new cloud account mode & new cloud video streaming

    It is great to hear DMSS has improved a fair bit, I'm considering Hikvision as well as it seems I can more easily get Hikvision kit in south america compared to Dahua which OEM for a few brands over there but they only have lower end models like older 1 and 2mp with very small sensors.

    URGENT!!! There will be new DMSS 2.0 and new cloud account mode & new cloud video streaming

    I ended up sending the NVR back as I could not get around the horrible UI, but that is me and I decided to move from BI to Scrypted for that reason. I need to build a system for a relative so that needs to be rock solid, even with a not as great UI. I can't tell you about the notifications on...

    URGENT!!! There will be new DMSS 2.0 and new cloud account mode & new cloud video streaming

    I'm mainly after push notification when a person is detected so I can easily tell if it is someone unknown, and easily playback that notification clip. Is that feasible? Last time I tried, it was a no go.

    URGENT!!! There will be new DMSS 2.0 and new cloud account mode & new cloud video streaming

    how is the new app interface experience? I tried an Dahua NVR about 1-2 years ago and I didn't enjoy much the experience as an end user. I'm a BI user, but as I want a more "polished" end user experience from a mobile app perspective, I now ended up using Scrypted as well, which is great, but I...
