I have a DS-2DE4A425IW installed at a customers farm and its autotracking is very average and definitely not smart. Gets lost and zooms off or looks directly down while spinning around :) I'm assuming its so bad they snuck this into the last uk firmware update *V5.7.3 220315 Remove...

On the dvr itself , go to system > live view>video output interface and set it to vga and remember to save. Works for me on a 7616NI-I2 I have been known to be wrong though , as the wife keeps reminding me.

I assume you've unplugged the mouse and plugged it back in again? :) Is the red light on it permanently? Tried moving it to the other usb port? Tried another mouse? I have an 8 channel DVR that loses it mouse every 8-12 months and I have to unlug it , reboot system, plug it back in again. Only...

ahh the joys of random self repairing/breaking systems:headbang: As for the models, its worked on all of them even back to my test 7608 uk model that last got a firmware in 2017 that has to have new cameras set to 1080p &h264 before they even display and cant display more than 2 on screen at a...

edit: that is such a bad explanation sorry and english is my 1st language. In my defence I'm still drunk :)

I've done this on a few jobs recently. 8 channel, 16 and 32 (although 32 only has 2 network ports, you have to make sure they are set to 2 different ip's in the config screen, which isnt the default, 1 to connect to your internet & the other for the local cctv ip range) The way I do it might not...

I can't see why not. I have a chinese no-name ptz and it works fine just plugging it in with the default settings. Mine also didnt have rs485 , just the ethernet and 12v power so youre stuck to using the mouse on the nvr or touchscreen on tablet/phone. (unless someone knows how to get a rs485...

Hi Bubbabedzie, I've only had problems with 265+ but I should say this was when it was first released. I had exactly same issue with the 4k cameras when they first came out & 265+, artifacts, ghosting, bits left behind while the rest played fine. It might have changed now, but I dont need the...

I'll be more polite :) and say can you not find someone through local recommendations rather than websites? I'm in the uk but if I didn't want any hassle and my time was more important than the money I'd take out a contract with a national company like adt who arent going to disappear and you...

You are scanning the correct QR code on the nvr are't you? If you scan the wrong one it just gives a local ip so only works when you are within wifi range. The correct one is menu-configuration-network-platform access. Probably wrong, but I've done it before :)

No issue. Just Alastair said you could only put 1 camera through a POE port on the nvr, but if you manually set the camera's ip's you can add multiple. I just wondered if this was a new thing since he posted in august.

Don't know if this has just recently changed but I did 3 jobs before christmas all with remote POE switches and cameras connected directly to the NVR. I connected the directly connected ones using plug and play, then used SADP to change the ones connected to the POE switch in the remote...

Hi SiMoore, Only time I've had anything like that it was 2 different things. 1st time was selecting h265+ , recording 24/7 at 1fps and changing to 20fps. Changed it back to h265 and its fine. The other time was a new install tvi system with the cusomters old hard drive in. Similar artifacts and...

Hi redavenger, Does it do the same when you reboot the camera itself rather than the NVR? asI did have a similar problem when the 5mp turrets were new to market. 2 or 3 wouldnt hold the settings and it turned out to be the first batches had a problem with the sd card/reset button cover holding...

Only installed a couple of 4K systems but I ended up just using 265, the 265+ seemed to cause more problems than it was worth, stuttering playback , artifacts left on screen etc. I do cause myself some problems by recording at 1fps 24hrs but full frame on motion , sometimes the motion just...
