    IPC-HDW2431T-AS-S2 SD-card erro

    Here I'm back again with SD-card issues. I'm about to install my IPC-HDW2431T-AS-S2 (that I won from Andy; see: IPC-HDW2431T-AS-S2 - Dahua Technology) but the camera is giving me SD-card errors. I use a brand new SD-card and formatted on my laptop before installing it in the camera but the...

    Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE SD-card (and other) issues

    My camera is giving me more problems. 2 days ago (August 29) I changed 2 things. Around 15:00 in the afternoon, I removed an old IVS tripwire rule and replaced it with a new one (landscaping changed so I had to change the rules). Every setting I got right, I verified it also with another camera...

    Dahua and Amcrest compatibility.

    Hi. Family of mine have been using 2 Amcrest IP2M-841 camera's as a baby camera. They were recommendations from this forum. They like them. Now they're looking for an outside camera on a barn that's about 40 meters away. And of course, I'm looking at what Dahua has available.;) For now, I'm...

    Dahua NVR seems to forget IVS recording settings

    I have a Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE and a NVR4116HS-4KS2. I records IVS/tripwire events on a SD-card in the camera and the NVR records 24/7 and IVS events. Or it should. Every once in a while, the NVR stops highlighting/recording the IVS events; it just shows the 24/7/general recording green bar...

    Dahua Lite series NVR End-of-life (Update: new NVR's listed)

    I noticed this week on Dahua's website, the entire NVR4-serie NVR's in the Dahua lite series is end-of-life. For example the quite populair NVR41__-4KS2 / NVR41__HS-4KS2. Only the NVR2-series is not (yet?) eol; but those are less 'powerfull'. Which also means there probably won't be anymore...

    Push notification with snapshot

    I've searched around online and can't find anything about it. I don't think it's possible to get push notifications (with gDMSS/DMSS) with a camera snapshot attached right? Something like this.

    Dahua NVR - Live screen 1 camera goes black after a while...

    I have 1 Dahua NVR4116HS-4KS2 and 1 IPC-HDW5231R-ZE camera, with the camera recording 24/7 on the NVR. Every so often, we have nieces/cousin coming over, and since I had an old Xiaomi Yi Ant 720p IP camera laying around, we used that (with a custom firmware enabling RTSP) for viewing them if...

    So what's your playback routine?

    I only have 1 Dahua camera connected to 1 Dahua NVR. The camera records our driveway. I pretty much never do anything with the NVR. Don't log into the webinterface and sporadically use it's HDMI output to watch the live feed on our TV. It's only there to record the camera 24/7 in case the IVS...

    Simple baby camera without mandatory subscriptions, cloud-use or terrible apps.

    I've been using the Xiaomi Yi Ant camera for some years now. It's the first generation, the 720p one with build-in IR. (looks like this). We first used it with stock firmware but that didn't work that well. The last few years I've been using it with custom firmware which gave it RTSP-stream, no...

    NVR4104-4KS2 versus NVR4104HS-4KS2

    Hi guys, These two NVR's seem identical apart from the housing; the -HS version is black and *slightly* bigger and they moved 1 USB2.0 port from the back to the front. Looking at the specs and the recent Q1 catalog from Andy (Dahua IP Catalog 201902 Q1) I can't find any other differences...

    Using vari-focal camera to determine focal length of fixed-focus camera

    I've read several times on this (very informative by the way) forum using this technique. I'm planning to do this too: New setup: 2 camera's and a NVR But here's the question; how exactly do you do that? Personally, I have the IPC-HDW5231R-ZE which goes from 2.7mm to 13.5mm. For another setup...

    New setup: 2 camera's and a NVR

    My brother is thinking about installing a system consisting of 2 camera's and a NVR. I have the IPC-HDW5231R-ZE camera and I'm quite happy with it. He has it temporarily installed behind a window. From this forum, I've read the IPC-HDW4231EM-ASE is reasonable comparable, apart from the...

    DS-7104N-SN / DS-7108N-SN; any good?

    In a other subforum I posted some questions about a possible setup with 2 Hikvision camera's and a NVR. But I got almost zero answers there and since my main question is about the NVR; I thought posting my question her might be the solution. This is the house. I made in Sketchup before rebuild...
