    Suggestions on pc to run Blue Iris (6 cams)

    Hi all Have some 2mp Dahuas and plan on adding some more but can't see me having need for any more than 6. Want to run Blue Iris. Any advice on which to pick from the below? I don't want to over spend on the pc. Save some for the cameras themselves. Business Desktop

    Which PTZ - best value

    HI All What are some recommended options for a PTZ to add to my two HD5231R-Z cameras? Do not need much zoom. Will spend up to 350 USD, if that will get my a reasonable performer? Thanks

    Recommendation of starlight camera (better than 4MP)

    I like the way you broke down the model number convention. Is there any reference to find out the rest of the numbers? E.g. Turret = "" ; Fixed lens = "" is there anything for focal length? what is Z12 above?

    Hi All I currently have two Dahua IPCs setup as you might know from my other posts. Extremely happy in that I have them both setup and they appear stable, this is thanks to guidance from people here. I have tried setup external access with some success, but I am getting a new router, so am...

    Setting up email notifications from Dahua IPC

    Hi all By logging into my camera directly through a web browser, I have added an SMTP email details (my gmail account). I sent a test email using the test button and presto, I receive a mail. Two questions; 1. I have tried to set IVS tripwire with email notification, however, I never received...

    alternative to dahua NVR

    So again I am very sorry for my lack of knowledge. I have the NVR and two cameras at the moment. I have the NVR connected to a router. I have setup Open VPN on my router as I want to view the cameras from my android phone when I'm away from my house / LAN. I used the Open VPN app on my phone...

    Great. Sorry for the dumb question, but does Smart Pss 2.0 get setup and installed on the NVR itself?

    alternative to dahua NVR

    I'm using the nor directly, that might explain why I am not all that satisfied.. still, the NVR sits in my hallway and is as noisy as hell.

    alternative to dahua NVR

    Hi I have a Dahua NVR with two Dahua cameras. I do not like the interface of the Dahua NVR. I also find it a little difficult to setup. Also, the NVR is very noisy. I have a POE switch, so no need for the POE on the Dahua. Is there a good alternative to an NVR that I can use? Cheers

    My ISP does not support VPN - alternate way to view my ipc remotely?

    From what I've read, port forarding is not recommnded due to security issues. However, I managed to successfully port forward last night. It worked perfect for about 10 mins where I could see perfect live feeds. After that I lost video feed. I checked my upload speed which is 20 mbps. Now...

    My ISP does not support VPN - alternate way to view my ipc remotely?

    How about an intel NUC? As a VPN server and blue iris? Would that work with the IsP instructions for inbound services on ISP provided router?

    Setup VPN - I have router specific instructions - do they make sense?

    HI all Trying to setup my VPN in order to view my IPCs remotely from my android phone (2 cameras and 1 Dahua NVR). The biggest issue I have is the ISP, who provides a restricted router and if I install a third party router, then the Terms and Conditions of my ISP contract are breached (yes, I...

    Dahua NVR will not find either of my two Dahua IPCs

    ok, the router is from my ISP (SKY). I have now re-arranged my connections so the switch is connected to my router, and my router connects to my NVR. (preevously I had a cable from my switch direct to NVR and a separate cable from my router direct to my switch) For this situation, nothing shows...

    Dahua NVR will not find either of my two Dahua IPCs

    Thanks. Not sure why, but when I view the NVR now, it has the 192.168.1.60 camera in both the top and bottom box. No other camera present. The status is RED for the camera in the bottom box. When I log into my router, for some reason I do not see the cameras nor the NVR in the list of...

    Dahua NVR will not find either of my two Dahua IPCs

    And I can update that.... It is not fixed. I am not sure I am cut out for this IP camera game, I thought I had enough basic knowledge about networking. - I can log into both cameras now with no problem. I assigned them both to be DHCP. - I have also logged into the NVR and clicked the DHCP...

    Dahua NVR will not find either of my two Dahua IPCs

    OK, thanks. I will try this. I assume that once i find out these, and then reserve them, then I will not need to re-reserve these again, and they remain static from then onwards?
