    NVR with 2 wireless bridges? Is it possible?

    The title may not adequately explain what I'm trying to do. I'm not the best with networking. I have an NVR (amcrest nv2108e) without wifi. This is in a location without access to a hard line from the router. I have it running on a small wireless bridge for remote viewing. This works fine. I am...

    Dahua N45EM63 IVS stopped working

    I will definitely keep that in mind. The system tends to need a reboot or two after we lose power or the internet goes down (which is all the damn time these days), so that makes sense.

    Dahua N45EM63 IVS stopped working

    Update: The NVR suddenly wouldnt pull down the config for camera 2, briefly. I tried again and it succeeded. As per above info I updated the codec to h.265 for both cameras, through the camera web interface. This immediately updated in the NVR and I was able to pull down the config for both...

    Dahua N45EM63 IVS stopped working

    Yes. I changed the codec back to h264 and the config error resolved, but the tripwire still failed to trigger any alarm. Rebooted the NVR again and got the failed to acquire config message again. I am still looking to see if anything changes during the reboot but so far nothing stands out...

    Dahua N45EM63 IVS stopped working

    Ok so the smart plan was toggled off. That produced the tripwire on the live view. Idk how because once it was setup the first time I never touched anything again. It's showing up on both the camera and the NVR L. However, in the NVR I go to AI>parameters> and both smart plan and ivs display...

    Dahua N45EM63 IVS stopped working

    I'm using the ie plugin for chrome, as always for the cameras. I setup the ivs in the camera and it saves it in the settings>event>ivs but does not display the tripwire on the live view (the working ivs camera does display it on live). No idea why the camera seems to not recognize its own settings

    Dahua N45EM63 IVS stopped working

    Thanks for the help, yet again! I definitely took your previous advice and never updated the ivs stuff on the camera itself until it happened. It worked great until June. Then it just randomly ceased, not long before a firmware update on the nvr. The order of events was as follows: I stopped...

    Dahua N45EM63 IVS stopped working

    I am not sure what I need to do here to get the IVS back online. I've tried setting it up in the camera and in the nvr. This is the message I get when I go to NVR>AI>parameters>IVS. I'm assuming this is a firmware incompatibility? How do I resolve this? Any help is appreciated!

    Dahua N45EM63 IVS stopped working

    Early in the month of June my IVS tripwire stopped sending emails. I thought this was an issue with the email account but it appears to be something else entirely and I cannot figure out whats gone wrong. I have a 2nd camera (different model) setup as well, with a tripwire and this has not...

    New email issues with Gmail/ Dahua

    At this stage I have deleted the tripwire and started a new one. Did this in the camera settings itself. When I go to the NVR itself and pull that IVS parameter I get a notification stating remote Ch1 failed to acquire config. So, yeah no more talking to one another about the fancy robot stuff...

    New email issues with Gmail/ Dahua

    Ok, well I think I was barking up the wrong tree here. I dug into it further and the IVS tripwire stopped functioning, although it was still showing the tripwire on the display. I had no alarms / events from that camera any more. Now I have to figure out why they aren't shaking hands anymore so...

    Did the test email work with the first 2?

    New email issues with Gmail/ Dahua

    Sorry about the delayed response - work is a thing. Yes that is the source of the instructions I used. 2FA and all that is setup. Test works fine. No emails for alerts.

    New email issues with Gmail/ Dahua

    The wiki is pretty confusing given that I can't seem to find where I'd need to look for this specific issue, and the dahua specific links are empty/dead. I've been using chrome and launching the web app with a plugin that is still working to access them. I wouldn't imagine the ie phaseout...

    New email issues with Gmail/ Dahua

    I'm sure this has been brought up before and I've followed the instructions found on various previous posts on the topic. This seems to be a new problem (at least for me). Until june 3 I was having no issues with receiving email alerts from my dahua NVR. This was setup through gmail SMTP. Then...

    IVS barely functioning

    I have finally got the IVS events to push to my email. I wound up having to go into the NVR itself to enable the recording an email as smartPSS wasnt pushing to the NVR. Not sure why but I'll take it so long as it is working. I am definitely going to keep pushing further. I'd really like push...

    IVS barely functioning

    I dont want to create a whole different thread for my newbie questions but I'm having some new issues. In the Smart PSS under device config my email tests check good. But my alerts are not sending to email and when I click system config from the top right gear icon, the same settings fail the...

    IVS barely functioning

    I've been pulling cable for the last several hours and got them installed. The IVS does seem to be working better although i haven't gotten the alarms to send and the playback seems real goofy. I need to spend another several hours figuring out the various UIs. It was clear that P2P being...

    IVS barely functioning

    Alright, so I had to go to security in the NVR and enable HTTPS security configuration. So, I'm back in. The IE is now blue... and I'm in. Finally. I will try to setup the IVS stuff and test again this evening. Holy crap that was silly. Huge thanks to you folks. I'll update on how this goes.

    IVS barely functioning

    yes I am at the router (although I will be leaving shortly for a few hours). In the NVR I swtiched DHCP and it set it to 192.168.0.197 ( which is what it was before reset.) Virtual host is on. And with these settings it tests good - but I still cannot access via web browser. The network cable...

    IVS barely functioning

    yes, P2P is OFF - I'm now unable to get to the web GUI. the IP is set to 192.168.1.108. In the NVR I go to network and test the connection but it fails. Not sure what the deal is at this point

    IVS barely functioning

    Totally understood. I set up a couple of systems for family and just didnt expect the learning curve to be quite this steep. I'm about to do the setup after reset now. Also, thank you folks for all the help so far!

    IVS barely functioning

    I dont think so, but it is entirely possible that I messed with the ports. I was kind of assuming this would be a bit more user friendly when I dove into it.

    IVS barely functioning

    The E has been there in every browser, it has been grey, however. And it still is yes. The cursor appears to see it as a clickable link but there is no activity when clicked. Im going to try and see about resetting the camera, I guess. The IP address is supposed to be 192.168.1.108 by default...

    Well then... TIL. I suppose I am becoming quite the peepaw :) Unfortunately even in actual IE, no dice. My luck is just wonderful. Any ideas why the camera wont cooperate?

    IVS barely functioning

    I'm relatively certain I'm in the right spot. Tried in both MS edge and Chrome with IE tab plug in, but the IE icon is not blue. Is there some setting that will enable me to click through to the camera GUI?

    IVS barely functioning

    Well, that is an interesting hurdle. Loaded in edge, as well as in IE Tab extension (IE11 forced)... its not blue and clicking the icon does nothing. Ideas as to what is going wrong there? I rebooted the system and tried again. Same result.

    I did set them up in the NVR UI but I have no way of screenshotting that short of taking pictures lol
