    Dahua NVR only recording and allowing to view 4 cameras out of 6

    There ya go! They might show RED because the user/password is incorrect. Start by verifying you are using the correct user/pass in the NVR for the camera. Re-tyoe them, and maybe they'll turn green. if they still dont' turn green, there might be some other connectivity issue.

    Dahua NVR only recording and allowing to view 4 cameras out of 6

    Just to verify the very basics, when you login to the NVR, and go to Settings->Camera Do you see all 6 of your cameras listed here? If all 6 are added, and are available from the LIVE screen on the NVR, you would have to change your LIVE view from 4 to 9 cameras to see all 6 at one...

    Rambozo - Two Taillights & A Window

    This video made my night. The background song is from HAMMERFALL - Legacy of Kings album. !!! Holy cow, what a shocker to hear that. A blast from 1998! :headbang::headbang::headbang:

    Worlds First Review - Dahua - IPC-Color4K-X / DH-IPC-HFW5849T1-ASE-LED - Full Color 4K Camera

    I will mention, FWIW.... for the 4K-X cameras, Andy's Sep2021 firmware, and the the Nov 5, 2021 firmware that Andy has been offering to people on a BETA basis (I think it's the same as the official Dahua release in this case, but I could be wrong?), so far hasn't been all that great for me...

    Dahua Email test failed

    Here are my settings that allow me to PASS the email test successfully... Note, you may have to turn on the LESS SECURE APP ACCESS under your gmail account. But even doing that, sometimes you will still fail. That's what happened to me... I ended up using a different gmail account, enabled...

    Alarm Out -- Not working

    -confused- This makes no sense to me. Can you elaborate a bit further or provide screenshots showing what you're referring to?

    Dahua P2P Issues

    Yep, certainly do that first, before changing ISPs, ha. So much easier and no reason it shouldn't work. Most ISPs will remote into their equipment to put into bridge mode for you if you request it via tech support.

    IPC-Color4K-X - IVS is often mistaking deer for people

    I'll just put out a sign that clarify all foot traffic only goes North and South only, a wrong-way sign . :thumb: I also made the IVS box a little smaller, so the intrusion box line doesn't go as far towards the top of the image, which should mean any deer/people inside/crossing the IVS box...

    IPC-Color4K-X - IVS is often mistaking deer for people

    Got another false positive today for deer triggering Human IVS when using Intrusion boxes. This time is happened when using the new firmware code that that EmpireAndy provided above in this thread. For now, I'm lower sensitivity from 5 to 4, and I added a min size on the rule too (something...

    Dahua P2P Issues

    If you're positive P2P is enabled on the cameras (I'd also reboot them, and make sure the P2P still shows as enabled after a reboot), then as others said before, the issue is likely something on his router/firewall/ISP that is blocking the traffic. Make sure the cameras have a proper gateway...

    Dahua P2P Issues

    Just to verify, when you put the 2 cameras into DMSS you did so with the serial #s and NOT the IP addresses of the cameras, correct? I made the mistake of putting my NVRs IP address into my DNSS app once, and the DMSS app would work when I was on the local wifi, but as soon as I went off the...

    IPC-T5442T-ZE IPC-T5442TM-AS IPC-T5842T-ZE SMD 3.0 Smart IR Latest New Firmware From EmpireTech

    Can you share that same video but including the IVS intrusion box or tripwire (in blue) on the video as well? That will show us for sure if something was triggered by that bug in the beginning of the video, but without IVS drawn in, there's no certain way to know for sure. You should be able...

    IPC-HDW5442T-ZE New cam from Dahua :)

    I would think you'd still want the PFA130-E box so the cabling can be kept away from the elements, yes.

    Dahua newbe questions...

    You're not kidding. My foray into Dahua NVR/cameras was a nightmare trying to learn everything and fixed countless problems, but with the help of people here, it gets easier. And now that you know where that setting is, you'll never forget it again!

    Dahua Smart Pss excessive Bandwidth usage

    Okay, whew, thanks for clarifying. I was hoping I could get some of that secret sauce to stream 25 cameras over a 1Mb link, haha. :)

    Dahua newbe questions...

    Awesome! Glad I could help (everyone is always helping me on here, lol, I finally got a chance to help someone else for a change) I might also upgrade your 5442 to this firmware, it's only 1 month newer but most of us find the best luck with it. Dahua/Empiretech 5442...

    Dahua newbe questions...

    On your NVR, under Alarm logging info, do you see events like these at ALL? Type -> Tripwire or Intrusion, like I show below? (see the 1st screenshot below) For every IVS event the NVR sees (triggered by the camera AI), it should be logged there automatically. If you don't see that...

    What if you uncheck the yellow "motion" checkbox, do you then see the blue lines like I show in the above screenshot?

    Dahua newbe questions...

    Bit confused... you mentioned IVS initially, but now you also mentioned recording with MD. so are you using MD/SMD as well as IVS?

    IPC-T5442T-ZE IPC-T5442TM-AS IPC-T5842T-ZE SMD 3.0 Smart IR Latest New Firmware From EmpireTech

    Wow surprised you're having the issues on the Dec 2020 firmware. Can you upload/send/share an example video for us to look at that shows these false positive triggers?

    Dahua newbe questions...

    I think there's a bug on the Dahua NVRs where if you are recording 24x7 (general) video, then the setting used for pre-record with IVS events is ignored... Others can comment about it, but it seems the pre-record setting (5s or whatever) only works if you are not recording 24x7 ... Some of...

    IPC-T5442T-ZE IPC-T5442TM-AS IPC-T5842T-ZE SMD 3.0 Smart IR Latest New Firmware From EmpireTech

    Can you confirm what firmware version/release on you on, specifically? Many of us that are concerned about IVS, seem to focus on using the Dec 2020 release firmware for the 5442 cameras which has had the most consistent results (IMHO).

    Dahua Smart Pss excessive Bandwidth usage

    Ahh, gotcha. That makes sense then. I think no matter what, you're gonna have a -very- difficult time if your link is only 1-2Mb. I previously had a link that was 1Mb, and even viewing a single camera's sub-stream (which were around 512Kb as opposed to the 8Mb main stream) was nearly...

    Dahua NVR seems to forget IVS recording settings

    I think you meant to say, to unplug the cameras during the factory reset (or even just a reset) -- yes, agreed. (It was probably an anomaly, but when I did a reset of my NVR a few weeks ago, it ended up overwriting all my cameras settings for picture/video/exposure, etc., what a mess. Though...

    Dahua NVR seems to forget IVS recording settings

    Well, if it were me, something does seem broken, so I would proceed with a firmware update on the NVR, and factory reset after that. That would be my suggestion based on the above. May be a bit of a PITA but, thankfully, the NVR shouldn't have too many settings you need to fix/adjust after a...

    Dahua Smart Pss excessive Bandwidth usage

    Just curious but.....do you need to use Smart PSS? Couldn't you just login to the NVR's main IP address instead? Might be easier on bandwidth for you...?

    Dahua NVR seems to forget IVS recording settings

    No answer here, but a few Q's just to confirm.... 1. Your IVS settings are being setup on the camera itself, NOT on the NVR, correct? 2. When you lose the IVS events in the NVR, are you referring the main SEARCH menu of the NVR, or in the AI menu's search? 3. When you lose the IVS events in...

    Upgraded to the newest firmware you provided. The IPC-Color4K-X was on this firmware: Now it's on this firmware: Please note, the bug still exists where if you add an IVS rule -after-having already made adjustments to shutter/exposure, the shutter/exposure settings that you had...

    IPC-Color4K-X - IVS is often mistaking deer for people

    After upgrading to this newest release firmware from Nov 2021 on the IPC-Color4K-X , should I still also do a DEFAULT on the settings as usual?
