    login problem with SD29204S-GN

    Delete the entry out of blue IRIS, restart the camera and try to log in via the web gui. Otherwise factory reset the camera, find it with SmartPSS and reconfigure? Default username and password is admin/admin.

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    Is that an opossum? The Australian ones are retarded, I have two living on my property, always tripping cameras. In pretty sure the cat is hunting the smaller one as it keeps going to the same spots. Was it @nayr that captured the gangstas and the masked hood rats wondering around?

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    I found using Smart PSS and doing all the IP configuration/firmware updates in one hit shaves a lot of time. Shrinking the DHCP pool away from the cameras/nvr in your router saves time as well. :) The actual messing with the rules, best to do once it's up. I'm forever changing my IVS rules to...

    IPC-HDW4431EM-AS

    He must of gotten some in after I ordered!!! Huge difference at longer distances based on your photos but naturally videos would make it stand out even more. I'll wait until the VF Turret Starlights come back into stock and switch them out. The EM-VS can look after the VM Sandbox Host/SAN...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    I can answer that. Yes it can be. The difference between the bullet and the dome? Apart from the form factor? The bullet is actually weather proof, the dome is "weather proof" but I'd still seal the base to be 100% sure. The Night Vision in the bullet is a lot better but you have to be...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    In my mk7 r you can code the car to auto lock after x amount of time or moment you go above 10mph. Boot will only unlock when the fob is next to it or if the car is running in P otherwise it stays locked. The new mqb2 head units seem block discover pro/audi infotainment configs from being...

    Dahua IPC-HDBW4431R-ZS - Buy Log / Review

    Hmmm I'll take a crack again, just cautious as realigning lens is a royal PITA. Getting the dust out is worse!

    IPC-HDW4431EM-AS

    Had to buy a few in a hurry as a stop gap until Andy gets in the starlights again. (Far from my first choice, was after starlights but he was out of stock) Used for secondary general coverage. (Already covered by two starlight PTZs with hard trips) For the specs, the price Andy sold them was...

    Dahua IPC-HDBW4431R-ZS - Buy Log / Review

    Just pulled apart one of the hdbw varifocal models. Had to be slightly careful as this one will be the future weather webcam. The electrical side is surprisingly well built but you can see where they have cut corners as well. Was hoping to find the controller chip for the sensor but it seems...

    The Z/ZS/AS/VF/VAS are the same camera I believe. ZS/VFAS are varifocials, AS/VFAS are the audio models. I think the lens is the only difference between the fixed and varifocial models. Will pull mine apart and take a look, might get lucky and find the sensor chip exposed.

    Buying From AliExpress

    You are lucky, my order from Andy is still in HK. My other DHL orders from Ali (other sellers) are chilling in Singapore, and another has actually made it to Australia in usual DHL speed. That holiday has really thrown the couriers into a bit of a mess. haha

    Dahua Backdoor Uncovered

    Interesting read for anyone who understands python. This was the code that was "removed" but as usual, leaked all over the Internet. Guess we can test our own kit to confirm which models are effected / publish here. [python] dahua-backdoor.py - codegist.net And here:

    Buying From AliExpress

    Guess it's like anything, check the sellers stats, how many sales vs returns, customer feedback on products, how long have they been selling on Ali for. Most sellers match each other on pricing, but will offer specials from time to time or will offer discounts for bulk buys. etc But if you...

    Buying From AliExpress

    Ask him for the tracking number. He has no issue providing them, otherwise check your paypal invoice, should be attached as he adds them in.

    Pretty sure they just copy and paste rough translations. They claim F2 0.01 lux for colour/low light, which we know isn't true, they are good but not that good. haha Oh my, just found them on Dahua's own website, seems to be loose on the specs as well. - 400万红外半球网络摄像机 - 浙江大华技术股份有限公司 "Trusting...
