    1/4-20 adapter?

    I believe the suggestion was more in jest but you could always try it. I’ve never used the permanent gorilla tape but I do have good luck with the original and as stated applying just a slight amount of heat with a heat gun really makes it stick

    1/4-20 adapter?

    That stuff holds anything together, warm it up slightly with a heat gun and it’s never coming off.

    Hikvision network setup

    It would have to be a 32/64/128 channel poe NVR if 17-19 cameras work sometimes. Could be a bandwidth issue, could be a network setup issue. The cameras on the switch will have to be on the same subnet as the lan port of the NVR, which would be different than the internal subnet of the poe...

    Can't get camera times to sync up (have tried manual, NTP, etc.)

    If you have a firewall set up keep in mind port 123 needs to be open for the cameras

    DMSS update 30.3.24 and PTZ preset lost

    Not sure why yours is greyed out but that’s not what background refresh is. You need to go to Settings -> App Store -> AUTOMATIC DOWNLOADS section and turn off App Updates

    I would prefer that over the goose neck on what I have

    It shows the plate text, no image. I just covered it with a white box

    Mini-Review - EmpireTech LPR413-Z3

    The screenshot in post #6 is not from the camera in this thread, but they’re both ANPR Automated Number Plate Recognition cameras. The processing is done by the camera. In my case it pushes it to my NVR which is then able to save each event (as well as recording video full time). My NVR is set...

    Variable Zoom Version of IPC-D54IR-ASE-S3 / IPC-HDBW5442R-ASE

    That’s a T for turret, OP is looking for D for dome. Another difference, ZHE models listed above have a heater, ZE does not

    Stealing a battery.

    32 seconds door open to door closed. That could have been somebody working on their car in the driveway who went in to refill their coffee only to come out and the battery is gone.

    Why do about half the cars have their headlights on today?

    My new vehicle is a 2002 F350 with buttons that take it from stock to can’t see the Prius behind me through the black cloud. Is that what you mean by anti-climate changer? Can’t say I ever turn it up that far anymore. Age does that to you I guess, but it’s there if I want to

    Why do about half the cars have their headlights on today?

    I start my vehicle, buckle my seatbelt, and turn on my headlights every time I get in. I used to be a never belter, seen too many crash reports with non survivors unbuckled in vehicles they should have walked away from. Headlights greatly improve your visibility to others, maybe just enough to...

    DAHUA OSD control

    Another reason to not make changes through DMSS or SmartPSS. Changes should be made directly from the camera webpage other than the recording schedule and a few other NVR specific settings

    Dahua NVR and external microphone

    I believe those rca ports only allow you to use a mic and speaker. There can be a mic outside and speaker by the NVR or vise versa. They don’t record the audio

    DMSS update 30.3.24 and PTZ preset lost

    Well it’s back in the App Store for me, I see what everyone is talking about, there’s no way to change ptz presets. WTF?

    DAHUA OSD control

    Settings -> App Store -> AUTOMATIC DOWNLOADS section Make sure App Updates is off. Won’t help you this time but will for next. At this point you have to wait until DMSS is back in the App Store

    DAHUA OSD control

    Are you sure app updates is not enabled in settings? Sounds like it is and I’d recommend turning it off

    Funny / Satire

    That’s certainly a possibility. I will admit I do own a ‘02 7.3 Powerstroke that has never left me stranded.

    Help me understand Dahua NVR and OpenVPN?!?

    I keep checking. Andy said today but that was at 8 this evening here, so 9am there. Hopefully by morning

    Help me understand Dahua NVR and OpenVPN?!?

    You should be able to switch wifi off, open OpenVPN and when it connects, open DMSS. Everything should work like you’re on wifi just a bit slower depending on your home internet up and cellular down connection speed

    Help me understand Dahua NVR and OpenVPN?!?

    It was working for me too for the most part. I don’t believe DMSS was my problem but I thought I’d delete and redownload only to find out it’s pulled from the app store at the moment

    Help me understand Dahua NVR and OpenVPN?!?

    Unfortunately DMSS is not available at the moment. If you haven’t downloaded it already try Amcrest View Pro 2. Use IP/Domain/DDNS to add your NVR Address: is the IP address to your NVR Device Name: whatever you want to call it

    Help me understand Dahua NVR and OpenVPN?!?

    I use DMSS when I’m home or away. Same app, same settings. If I’m home and on wifi I open DMSS, if I’m away I open the OpenVPN app, slide the switch over and when it connects open DMSS

    How do you detect rodents?

    I saw it was in the BI AI forum and the AI setting screenshot but I’d be more worried about catching them with a trap than a camera

    How do you detect rodents?

    And cats. And dogs. They’ve learned not to mess with them anymore though

    How do you detect rodents?

    These everywhere. They work great for bugs too

    DMSS update 30.3.24 and PTZ preset lost

    Same here. I wasn’t having problems with DMSS per se but I don’t have auto updates on. I was having trouble with IVS notifications and I just switched to a new NVR and thought deleting and reinstalling might be worth a shot. Unfortunately I picked the day they pulled it from the App Store. In...
