    Dahua IMOU camera owners, please share your information here! Thank you.

    Guys be aware the "new" smartpss that Dahua released has a new interface, and it does not support IMOU cameras anymore, I had to find an older version of pss and then it worked.

    PTZ4M-25X-PV compatibility with BlueIris

    I'm not sure if this is the best place to post thins, the camera is Dahua, but Andy supplies his own version, and this is also related to Blue iris, a mix! Anyway, are people using this camera with Blue Iris? I've had a few incidents that would greatly benefit from a zoom camera, and I'm...

    Moved from Blueiris to Scrypted NVR.

    I tried Scrypted for a while, far to many bugs and lack of basic features. I think it has potential, but to me, it was not ideal in its current shape and price. It has a very nice UI and playback. It can do some things Blue Iris does poorly, but Blue Iris can do lots of other things well that...

    IPC-Color4K-T180 cannot change DST (daylight saving time)

    I'll change to last week of march and october as here in the UK it seems to be always on the last Sunday of each. Let's see if this works better.

    IPC-Color4K-T180 cannot change DST (daylight saving time)

    I would need to get a virtual machine to run IE. I don't understand why Dahua does not pick up the DST for each location like any other manufacturer does. Would make things so much better. I don't think I have touched DST in any other device for longer than a decade.

    IPC-Color4K-T180 cannot change DST (daylight saving time)

    Yes, I'm using 24 hours time, I changed to 12, then I could choose any dates in 2024, changed back to 24 hours, and I can still set the DST times now. Odd! Using Edge browser.

    IPC-Color4K-T180 cannot change DST (daylight saving time)

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    Could you please elaborate on that? I'm trying the PTZ on my webui 5 camera IPC-Color4K-T180, but it does not work, All my other cameras like the IPC-T5442TM-AS work fine with the PTZ function. I believe the commands must be different.

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    Is there a way to configure the newer cameras like the dahua IPC-Color4K-T180 that runs the new web UI to change the day/night profile via PTZ controls in Blueiris like the old dahua cameras?

    I just purchased a NVR32CH-AI and it was a bit of a guessing game with several functions. I'm glad I came across this topic. Andy it would be great to have a leaflet with the NVR stating you have these videos on youtube, it will definitely help ensure people are watching those when they purchase...
