Thanks for that link. Even though this Dahua Smart player looks Identical to the Amcrest Smart Player the export function worked.

My Lorex Ipcam system records 4K. I can download the native .dav files and play them with a some issue on MPC-HC. Only other player on my PC that can play it is Amcrest Smart Play but the export to .avi feature doesn't work properly and only outputs .avi files with 0kb size. Handbrake won't...

Yeah, I entered the coreect IP address as is assigned to the NVR by my router. There are many options for connectivity via idmss and I tried them all as far as I could figure out. I'll give TinyCam a try. Thx

Now do I need port forwarding enabled while connected via local wifi? I don't think you do. Anyways, I could not get the phone app to connect to the DVR via local wifi. I can connect my local PC via wifi through Chrome browser extension called Easy Viewer by the NVR's local ip address. I...

I know its been a while since I last replied but I was pretty busy and sidetracked but now I'm attempting to setup my VPN for iPhone viewing. I appear to have successfully established a VPN connection between my phone and router. My problem I think seems to be connecting the iDMSS lite app to...

That makes more sense. Thx

So this VPN should cover one of those cheap turret IPCAMs I have inside my home? I 'd like to use it to monitor the interior.

That's more along the lines of what I was looking for. I don't think I'll have time tomorrow to set all that up so I'll likely leave the NVR off the network while I'm on my trip. I now realize how far I've fallen behind in my tech-know-how. With age I've just lost the interest to keep up with...

I have a Nighthawk router that has built in VPN service menu. There are quite a few setup options though and that's what I need to figure out as well as the setup on my iPhone and the impact on all my other devices.

Ok so I gave that link a quick read through. It doesn't give complete instructions on setting up the VPN for my NVR and my phone, just a basic overview. I'd need more time to research in more depth what's involved in setting this up with my devices. Unfortunately I don't have time since I'll...

Is there an app for accessing my NVR from a cellphone? I'll be on vacation soon and would like access for that time period. Update: I found the Lorex Secure app. I'll run the setup later.

The system is doing well. It went through Hurricane Irma without fail. Exposed to Cat 1 winds and rain so the weather proofing is definitely good. The IQ during the day is superb at 4K. The IQ at night is fair. Lots of grain and loss of detail. The image sensor is not well suited for low...

Where's the video? My NVR has a DC plug in the rear. The fan noise is minimal IMO. I think any worthwhile NVR will have a fan but the fan quality would directly impact the noise level. My NVR is in HT system self in the living room. Only audible when everything else is off. I really like...

I switched to corridor mode. Had to lower the resolution a bit for it to work. I cant raise the camera any further due to soffit coming into frame and more glare. The soffit inclines upward in front of this camera so nothing more I can do besides maybe a pedestal. The IR leaves a hot spot low...

IF the box doesnt do the job I'll have to move it closer to the edge like you said or get a pedestal for the camera if there is such a thing. I made the adjustments but maybe not enough. The glare from the lamps I feel may be part of the problem. I need to see that shed at the far end...
