    4108E-A2, Issues with Time?

    Anyone has an issue with Time? I have all my NVRs setup to get the time from my NTP server and all my other Dahua, Alibi, Amcrest, Annke and Hikvision DVR/NVRs access that server and have no issues with the correct time. However my 4108E-A2 NVR is an hour behind.? Firmware Issue? I mean even my...

    IPC-Color4M-TL

    So one might ask does it really matter? The answer is yes.. Even if you are not using SMD as most here say they are IVS only.. I use IVS and a backup with SMD without enabling it even.. Different story so many say NA but in reality SMD 4.0 will help with IVS even to keep less cats and dogs or...

    UNIVIEW NVR-can't add camera!

    They have good support if you get the good techs lol.. Outside of that, I am not impressed by my uniview either.. Sure not as good as my Dahua or Amcrest DVR/NVRs or Cameras.. Glad you got it. Just so you know in some cases I found that cameras will need to be added ONVIF setup and not the...

    Forced HDD Failure? - Burglary

    I would look at your Power supply, If the HDD has some issues on an event and there could be many factors going on at the time of the event that your HDD had an issue. 1, Motion event. Camera encoding and recording to the HDD.. If there is an issue with power supply you can have issues with...

    POE Alarm/Siren?

    Yeah as I said best thing is to setup your alarm out to trigger an alarm in doors so you know when your tripwire or Intrusion has been tripped. Personally not a video I would post myself.

    POE Alarm/Siren?

    If your NVR has an Alarm output then you could always use a 12v car alarm siren with a 12v power supply and use the output to sound an alarm.. You are aware what your are asking for? I mean I hope you are selective on the cameras alarms you are going to have alert you. I say this because without...

    PTZ5A4M-25X no audio

    Some PTZs do have Mic and Speakers built in, But seems like yours may not.. So would as said before need an external Mic. Then even when you enable from camera at times it seems there might be an issue even with audio after being enable using WebUI. I found in this case you need to go to your...

    Static or DHCP for IP cams?

    Kind of need more info about what you are trying to do.. Personally turn off UpNP in all devices and best to turn it off in your router so one can't sneak on that you forgot to turn off.. Normally Firewall info isn't needed unless you have blocked the devices from access of the internet over...

    Local DVR latency issues

    From your post it sounds like you might want to add in a Switch. Connect your cameras, DVR, BI computer all to the switch and see if that helps with the bottle neck you are having with your router connected devices. Routers are good for dhcp service and giving access to the internet for your...

    Amcrest Smart Home (ASH), No http web user Interface, Boooo!

    Just a heads-up, you can’t flash firmware from a different Amcrest camera like one with a full WebUI onto a Smart Home series Amcrest camera just to get missing features like the Web interface. Even if the cameras look similar or share the same resolution, the firmware is model-specific and...

    Looking for something similar to my ip4m-1051 Amcrest PTZ camera.

    Keep in mind that the 841 is in the line of the 1051. These have been replaced with a v3 model that isn't same quality of camera. PCB is 1/2 the size and they removed Alarm and Audio in and out for external access. However this isn't what makes this v3 line not as good in my mind. That is they...
