    Dahua DH-IPC-HDBW2300R-Z or Dahua SD22204T-GN

    Thanks for the heads up...at least you reminded us that we can't just change firmware on a whim.

    Dahua DH-IPC-HDBW2300R-Z or Dahua SD22204T-GN

    I'm confused. You have cameras with IVS yet were listed optional? Are they with or without IVS? I understand the last one with the "I" -- that definitely has that feature. It is also my understanding that in order for IVS to work, both IPC and NVR must have that feature, right? Looking at...

    Dahua NVR + Amcrest Cameras

    -- "You learn something new everyday." Thanks for the tips. Budget wise, I think I could go as high as the Dahua 6MP Fisheye dome w/ "tripwire" and, just like you said, dial the feed down to 5MP...or I could settle with either of the 5/4MP version of it if tripwire doesn't prove to be that...

    Dahua NVR + Amcrest Cameras

    Guys, when the specs say the NVR is "Up to 5MP in Preview, Playback and Recording", does that mean it will accept only 5MP max IPCs? If so, anything higher than that is totally useless/overkill? One more thing...this is a newbie-ish/stupid question...under "Recording Resolution" it says...

    Dahua NVR + Amcrest Cameras

    LOL -- not a big fan of hoodies. Now that both Amcrest cameras and Dahua software have passed the 'Nayr Compatibility Test', does this mean these cams will have no problem communicating with any Dahua recorder as far as motion detection recording thru NVR is concerned? On a side note, this is...

    Dahua NVR + Amcrest Cameras

    Here is a screenshot of the motion events: Motion Detection just sucks when there is no ample lighting. Also, before I took this screenshot, it generated a 'Tamper Event'...must've been me getting too close to the cam + the low lighting and waving my arms near it could've set it off, right?

    Dahua NVR + Amcrest Cameras

    Ok good...SmartPSS found both Amcrest cameras. I was able to get live view and the following: However, 'Alarm' didn't work with the turret only since this cam didn't have any alarm features. Both cameras "Failed to get remote setup information" from the 'Remote Device' menu. I don't know...

    Dahua NVR + Amcrest Cameras

    alastair, I did click on the 'Events' link and it generated motion events on the 'Events' page from the turret cam (which was set to 'Enable' including 'Period', 'Region', etc.) with a bunch of false, false, true, true, false, false and so on and so forth. Is this a good sign? Nayr, I...

    Dahua NVR + Amcrest Cameras

    Guys, Did some researching and according to the ONVIF Device Manager, the two Amcrest cams (one identified as "General" don't know why) have ONVIF version 2.40 on them. Click screenshots below to enlarge: The Dahua NVR that I'm planning to get to replace the Amcrest NV1104E is listed as...
