    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    I want to under-promise on this one--it's a fair amount of work to make them more generic for others to use so you don't have to modify the actual source. I wrote twelve functions for this module, all told. Somewhere between the endless demands of work and home life, I'm sure I'll need a break...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    I really appreciate your help, man. I wouldn’t have gotten as far as I did without you and everyone else. The fact that you all were so eager to help me is why I’m making these check in posts and will share out my scripts—I hope they may be useful to someone else.

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    Checking in... I have my scripts working. They need some fine tuning, but the overall experience is very good. I still plan to make my scripts more generic and share them out after a little more clean up. An overview of what my PowerShell command currently does: I run this command...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    Checking in with an update for anyone who's following. I'm still pursuing a DIY solution using the API and PowerShell. I'm mostly focused on getting basic pieces of the workflow built (e.g., authentication, parsing responses, etc.), but I have a rough idea of where I'm heading with the first...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    A couple of quick status updates... I've contacted the seller I bought it from for support--they're looking into the issue to see if they can help in any way. I contacted Dahua North America's Support, but they advised they couldn't assist as it's not a product "geared for the North America...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    @tigerwillow1 What record types does your NVR schedule have available (similar to your first screenshot from your camera)?

    I do not have these sub-menus under the Event menu: Smart Plan IVS Vehicle People Counting Heat Map Across the top-most tabs, I do not have the "Smart Play" tab.

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    @tigerwillow1 I don't have the heat map feature available, unfortunately! For the address, did you put in your camera's IP address like this? http://192.168.1.15/cgi-bin/...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    Arjun, I think you're right. I've found several discussions around this as well as documentation about the NVR4XXX series that seems to explain what's happening. IVS is not enabled on the NVR by default, and I have to enable it. None of the solutions in those discussions have worked for me...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    I'm at a loss as to what to do next with this--the issue isn't resolved. I've factory reset each device after updating to the latest firmware, prayed, tried working with the API to tease out some clue as to there things are jammed up, prayed to darker things, and spent hours searching the web...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    Just a summary update of some more interesting points. I've gotten the tripwire events to show up in the log for the camera using the API. It's off by default and not exposed in any of the UIs (web/Smart PSS/etc.), but it's there in the API. I've also managed to get the tripwire triggered...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    It's off. I've taken this down to just a single camera and added a micro SD card to it for local storage. Leaving the NVR and other camera out of the equation for now--I can't get this to work on just one camera by itself. The tripwires are getting triggered, and I can create an alarm on the...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    I hadn't thought about the log file until you posted this--I think this might be the best clue yet as to what's happening with my system. I do not see tripwire events in my system log for the NVR *nor* on the camera itself. The tripwires are there, they flash when things cross them, but...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    I actually ruled this out by removing the general record type from the query--no results, unfortunately.

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    It's absolutely possible this might resolve the issue--I've seen similar stories in these forums. I believe (for the moment) that there has to be a precise answer, though.

    Nope--no difference in the web GUI.

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    I've removed my cameras from Smart PSS, leaving only the NVR. I also deleted/recreated all of my IVS triggers for good measure. I play back from the NVR (this is the only option since I don't have local storage in the cams). Here's a screen shot of my live view from the NVR (front porch is...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    It's connected to all three. I've also updated the firmware for my cameras to a newer version I found last night (which hasn't resolved the issue). I chose the NTSC firmware this time where I was previously using the PAL firmware--one of the links tigerwillow1 posted above made some...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    I’m able to define those same settings on my cameras themselves, but not on my NVR. Based on a comment in another thread, I suspect I shouldn't need to configure IVS settings on my NVR. IVS is running off the Cameras; the NVR does nothing but accept a signal of IVS Triggered.. the object...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    Are your IVS rules defined on your NVR or on your cameras? I don’t have the option to define mine on my NVR.

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    Good thinking--I confirmed this isn't the case by unchecking the general record type and only querying for the intelligent record type (plus alarm and MD, just to be sure). Also, my cameras do not have any local storage--everything is being written to the HDD in my NVR (unless I configure...

    Smart PSS - Playback IPC IVS Events from NVR

    Hi, Is it possible to see IPC generated IVS events ("intelligent" record type) in-line with the general feed when I search on the Playback section of Smart PSS? I've successfully configured IVS rules on my cameras. I am able to use Event Config to record video when the IVS rules are...
