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

    Is there a list of the things Fixed or Improved on this firmware? I noticed you don't have this posted anywhere yet (it's not posted to the EmpireTech Andy forum) ... is this publicly available yet? I'm wondering what's all been updated.

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

    I have a bunch of IPC-Color4K-X cameras from @EMPIRETECANDY . I like them a lot. However, the IVS Intrusion Box rules are regularly giving me "false positives" for deer. My Intrusion Boxes are set for Enter/Exit/Appear and intended to alert me when people are on my property. They...

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

    Just wanted to mention for others interested in this camera model but are sitting on the fence about getting more... I have 11 of these in place now (running Sep 2021 firmware) that replaced other Dahua cameras, and find these 4K-X models to be amazing, especially at night time. They sure don't...

    Dahua NVR -- where to set pre-recording seconds for IVS rule

    @EMPIRETECANDY -- can this be fixed with a firmware update? I have a DHI-NVR6A08-32-4KS2 NVR.

    Dahua NVR -- where to set pre-recording seconds for IVS rule

    I think I might have answered my own question... Is it here? for each channel I need to set it to 15?

    Dahua NVR -- where to set pre-recording seconds for IVS rule

    Remind me on a Dahua NVR, where you go to set the # seconds it should pre-record for a camera's IVS rule? For example, if my IVS rule is triggered, I want the camera to record the 15 seconds BEFORE the event happened as well, so in my DMSS app I can easily see what led up to the IVS event...

    T-Mobile 5G Home Internet AND Blue Iris

    Nice, yeah before T-Mobile I also had a site to site bridged wireless link to my ISP as well (not on a tower but on a NPR/mast on my roof) ... I got a whopping 8Mb/1Mb with it, so the T-Mobile setup with my externals is so much nicer. I'm also on the waiting list for StarLink since Jan 2021...

    T-Mobile 5G Home Internet AND Blue Iris

    Few extra comments for T-Mobile Home Internet Gateway... I've been using it for about 4 months now -with- 2 Waveform MIMO external antennas hooked up to it and the internal antennas disabled. I have no high speed internet where I am, and my previous internet was good for about 8Mb down and <...

    alarm wire from IPC-B5442E-Z4E

    One of the other benefits of using the NVRs alarm out relays is, maybe you want multiple cameras to all have 1 specific thing to be triggered from each of those cameras IVS events (like for example, you want all 5 cameras to trigger this big giant alarm light or some kind of audible alarm...

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

    I'm still on Dec 2020 firmware (IVS is great and I think everyone's favorite firmware). So wondering what better/improved/fixed with this newest firmware versus Dec 2020?

    alarm wire from IPC-B5442E-Z4E

    Just a quick, your NVR model should have 8 alarm outs on it as well. Meaning, you wouldn't even necessarily need to use the alarm outs on your cameras, you could instead use the ones on the NVR. it can save you cabling costs/installs since you wouldn't have to run dual ethernet cables to your...

    Video Stutter?

    One comment about this... If you're seeing stuttering, I would strongly suggest you open a command prompt and do a "ping [ip address of cam] -t" and let that run in the background (preferably running the ping command from a device that's hardwired via Ethernet cable and -not- wirelessly...

    Alarm Out -- Not working

    Yea to clarify, I don't set ANY camera settings in the NVR. They are ALL done directly via IP and IE to the cameras, I've been doing that since day 1. An NVR reset shouldn't reset configuration on a camera, but it basically hosed everything.

    Alarm Out -- Not working

    That sounds good in theory but, I got burned by that too. 2-3 weeks ago I was working with L2 support and a China DEV, remoted into my computer and the China DEV rebooted the NVR and it factory reset on its own. I thought, "no problem!" --- as I just JUST taken a backup configuration of the...

    Alarm Out -- Not working

    Well, I wouldn't say that. haha, but I've gotten help from members here (especially @wittaj) and my installer. I'm learning a lot and finally understand more things than I did before.

    Alarm Out -- Not working

    Yes, correct. I set everything on the cameras themselves, not the NVR. The things I lost varied on each cameras but in general, it was the daylight saving time settings and NTP settings, it was all the Video settings (H264, bit rate, frame rates, etc.) , it was all the IVS settings...

    Alarm Out -- Not working

    The RESET (not Factory Reset) of the NVR fixed the Alarm Outs issues. All 8 Alarm Outs are now working again. (unfortunately, the RESET also whacked the configuration of my cameras settings so I had to redo ALL of the picture, exposure, video, DST/TIME, IVS rules, etc.)

    Alarm Out -- Not working

    The alarm outputs of the NVR go to relays in my Home Automation System to trigger certain things based on the IVS events that were triggered. We have a pretty nice setup with this and do some really cool things. For example, If an IVS is triggered on camera #1, then the Home Automation will...

    Alarm Out -- Not working

    I normally do, but I literally just got done doing adjustments on all the cameras (with new additions) and NVR too. I was just wanting to fix this issue with the Alarm Out. Since I never expected doing a RESET on the NVR would change configuration on my actual cameras, I didn't think to do an...

    Alarm Out -- Not working

    Well now I'm upset ... I did a RESET on the NVR as you suggested. (not a factory reset, just a regular reset)... After the NVR came back online --- EVERY ONE OF MY CAMERAS has lost ALL of its Video settings and IVS settings. And all my Picture/exposure settings. They're completely GONE...

    Alarm Out -- Not working

    I really don't want to go to an older version. The version I'm running now 7/27 (see my screenshot above) is what Dahua's L2 (USA) support and the DEV I'm working with in China wants me to run (due to another support case I have open for my Thermal cameras and some issues with them). I can't...

    Alarm Out -- Not working

    7/27/21 is the firmware (which seems to be the latest available). I'm trying -not- to Factory Reset this, as it was just Factory Reset a few weeks ago (it did it on its own after a normal reboot, and even the Dahua L2 engineer (USA) and Dahua DEV (from China) that were remoted into my...

    Alarm Out -- Not working

    I have an @EMPIRETECANDY NVR model DHI-NVR608-32-4KS2 which comes with (8) Alarm Outs. For whatever reason, these Alarm Outs just stopped working. I have rebooted the NVR and powered off the NVR. The Alarm Outs are configured to run against the IVS rules of my camera. For example: My...

    Dahua TPC-DF1241 (3.5mm thermal / 4mm visible)

    Yea it sucks. China Dev have seen the problem happen live (had them remote into my computer to look at what's going on) and even loaded up SDK tools to verify what's going on and did multiple Wireshark packet captures as well. They see that the camera isn't sending specific AI analytics data...

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

    I just wanted to double check on a couple things with these cameras from the expects here. Can some people chime in on my 3 questions? 1. Andy told me today that the IVS issues that some of you guys reported (can't remember the exact thread) with these cameras have been fixed on the "current"...

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

    Curious about when the new release is coming out as well. Seem the Dec 2020 is STILL the best one for IVS and the ones that have come out in 2021 are bad for IVS unfortunately.

    Dahua TPC-DF1241 (3.5mm thermal / 4mm visible)

    I have 3 of the 1241 turret Thermals (from Dahua, not Andy, but likely the same thing). I'd buy more (theoretically great for people/vehicle detection at night) BUT until they figure out WHY the cameras do NOT log the AI-Search analytics and DMSS push notifications correctly, I'm holding off...

    Doorbell Cam DHI-VTO2202F-P-S2 --- sending Tamper Alarm alerts once/week at exact time

    I have a Dahua doorbell camera (model #DHI-VTO2202F-P-S2) that every Tuesday morning (at the exact same time) is giving me a Tamper Alarm DMSS message even though the Emergency Maintenance checkbox is -not- enabled (see screenshot). How do I stop this once a week Tamper Alarm from getting sent...
