    Dahua NVR4108-8P-4KS2 max external usb hdd size?

    through a bit of experimentation, i discovered that partitions at 4tb or greater than 4tb are not accessible. in the end, i just divided the drive into two partitions roughly the same size and they are both accessible.

    PTZ slow to react initially after period of non use

    it seems like this problem has gone away for me in the past few days. keeping my fingers crossed. i did nothing to the camera. either this is a result of upgrading my DHI-NVR4108-P-4KS2 NVR firmware to V4.001.0000000.0, Build Date: 2020-02-21, possibly something different in the latest...

    Upgrading existing coax system

    seems like a number is missing here : 0.005Lux/F1.5, 30IRE is it 1/30s or 1/3s? IPC-HDW5231R-ZE for comparison: 0.006Lux/F1.6 ( Color,1/3s,30IRE) 0.05Lux/F1.6 ( Color,1/30s,30IRE) also, some of these hdcvi i am looking at don't state the vertical Angle of View specs can be deceiving.

    Blue Iris 5, constructive criticism

    using the keyboard shortcuts to control PTZ, i find it is very laggy. i changed the key repeat rate and repeat delay but it doesn't help. any advice? also, i hooked up a USB nintendo controller and it works for controlling the up, down, left, right PTZ. the A B, A&B turbo buttons control PTZ...

    Blue Iris 5, constructive criticism

    but what i am saying is why not have the ptz controls show after you single click the camera? when viewing 4 cameras live, the ptz controls don't do anything. they are greyed out. it just takes up space. i can hide it but then i have to click the ptz button to bring it up again after i click...
