    Looking for network help on a Dahua N98A5N NVR

    You would need to create the 2nd subnet (VLAN) on your gateway/router. Then you can use both NICs on the NVR independently.

    Desktop Microphone

    Sorry for the confusion. I wrote that I wanted "to pair" a microphone with one of my cameras. Not "a pair" of microphones I could have worded it more clearly, sorry about that. Basically, I just want a nice tabletop omnidirectional condenser microphone to attach to my Dahua Camera, and I...

    Desktop Microphone

    Thanks! Does it have to be a mixer, or can it just be a straight phantom power adapter? Going this route and see how we do. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A361UMS/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1...

    Desktop Microphone

    Cant find much in the way of install for this unit. It says wireless but is there an aux jack or something I can use to hook it to the camera?

    Waiting on (2) of these to come in for work. https://us.dahuasecurity.com/product/n98a6n/ 1gb of incoming bandwidth! I have used both Blue Iris and NVRs. Currently using Dahua NVRs. Both have their pros and cons.

    Desktop Microphone

    I want to pair a nice omnidirectional tabletop microphone with one of my Dahua Cams. It will be indoor and not hidden at all, so size does not matter. I just want a nice microphone that can do a better job at reproducing voice than the built in mics on the Dahua Cams. Where I am getting...

    Site to Site VPN access issues

    Thanks for everyone's input. It turns out that when I originally set up the cameras at that location, I set the gateway out of range so they could not reach the internet. I fixed that and now everything is fine. It was my error. I know not to use port forwarding for access, I was simply...

    Site to Site VPN access issues

    For giggles, I forwarded a port directly to the IP of one of the cameras, and still no luck. I haven't "blocked" anything, so not sure where the interruption is residing.

    Site to Site VPN access issues

    I have a Unifi UXG-Pro on one end and a Unifi USG-Pro on the other. No double NATs just the Unifi routers. The tunnel works fine both ways, I can access/ping all equipment from both sides as well as the Dahua NVRs. Everything works as expected. However, I can not ping/access the GUI for the...

    [Q] Dahua NVR608-64-4KS2 Upgrade to v4 Firmware

    Was the web interface playback speed effected?

    [Q] Dahua NVR608-64-4KS2 Upgrade to v4 Firmware

    Thanks. Did you have to format the drives or anything? I noticed that when upgrading firmware and have playback issues, sometimes the drives being formatted fixes the playback. Do you have issues with playback speed directly on the NVR or is it just SmartPss? Is the v4 GUI worth the upgrade...

    [Q] Dahua NVR608-64-4KS2 Upgrade to v4 Firmware

    I Currently have (2) NVRs, described in the title, running firmware "881399_General_NVR6XX-4KS2_Eng_V3.216.0000000.1.R.190614.BIN", without issue. I have tried to attach the file here to review as a ZIP and a BIN but it fails to attach. I want to upgrade to v4 for the new UI but am hesitant...

    Dahua Audio cutting in/out IPC-HDW4631C-A

    Eh, I don't care, I'm human...lol. Sometimes we start looking for the most complicated solutions when the simple ones are right in front of us. Maybe someone will benefit from my oversight.

    Dahua Audio cutting in/out IPC-HDW4631C-A

    Well the common denominator here is me, and I feel pretty dumb but rather than not reply I figure maybe this will help someone else. There wasn't a damn thing wrong with the cameras, they sound great. It was the stupid audio card I have in my PC that I was using to test everything. I took one...

    Dahua Audio cutting in/out IPC-HDW4631C-A

    Since I am the lucky admin of our current system of now 91 (yes 91) Dahua 6MP IP cams and 4 NVRs, it it my responsibility to figure out these audio issues we are having on 2 newly installed IPC-HDW4631C-A turrets with built in Microphones. I will try to upload an Audio clip in a little while...

    [Q] Best Monitor for my setup?

    I guess technically I could.....but I would rather leave them separated, Interior/Exterior. Probably right about the TV's vs Monitors though. I will probably just pick up (3) 40" 4k TVs. Thanks for the feedback!

    [Q] Best Monitor for my setup?

    I am looking for the best monitor option for my company setup. Current setup: (2) Dahua NVR608-64-4KS2 NVRs (72) Dahua Cams The (72) cams are split between interior and exterior locations as are the NVRs. Interior NVR is using (44) channels Exterior NVR is using (28) channels These NVRs...

    Dahua NVR608-64-4ks2 - H.265 Question

    My firmware is also 7/14/2016....its the latest according to my supplier. You can set the IVS rules to show in the "Display" settings of the NVR. It will show the tripwire or intrusion info as well as motion. All my cameras are Dahua though.

    IVS Snapshot Delay

    With some more testing I have found that the NVR just does a lousy job at taking snapshots. When tested through the camera itself, the snapshots are almost instant...maybe a second or two delay at most which is acceptable for my needs. Hopefully someone has some pointers for getting the NVR to...

    IVS Snapshot Delay

    When using the IVS feature to send an email with a snapshot there seems to be like a 6 second delay from when the event is triggered and when the snapshot is taken. Because of this I am rarely ever seeing what triggered the event. Is there a way to get instant snapshots as soon as the event is...

    Dahua NVR608-64-4ks2 - H.265 Question

    One other thing I noticed. When setting up the cameras its default TCP port is 37777 for each camera both in the camera settings as well as the NVR settings. When I try to connect it "usually" fails and I have to use port 80 to connect. This is when registering a camera in the NVR. Should I...

    Dahua NVR608-64-4ks2 - H.265 Question

    Awesome! I was under the impression everything had to be Onvif. When I changed the camera type to Private, I get the H.265 option. Thanks a million everyone! @c hris527 Smart Codec is off. It caused severe lag when on because this NVR does not support H.265+.

    Dahua NVR608-64-4ks2 - H.265 Question

    Tried reboot already but no go. It is the same on both NVRs. One is an nvr608-32-4ks2 and the other is an nvr-608-64-4ks2. All cameras are registered as Onvif. Not sure about the "Custom" and "1kbps". I never really messed with this page on the NVR before, it just usually reflects the...

    Dahua NVR608-64-4ks2 - H.265 Question

    Dahua NVR608-64-4ks2 - H.265 Question

    Looking for someone that has the above NVR or has knowledge of the above NVR. I am in the process of installing these two units and am confused about the "ENCODE SETTINGS" within the NVR. The manual is pretty generic and covers several models within one manual so I could not find my answer...

    Commercial Setup

    Thank you @looney2ns . I have about 40 cameras installed now, they are all the interior 6mp H.265 Domes. I have the NVR608-64 installed and running. I have the gDMSS app installed and running. So far everything is looking really nice. I have only been messing with the gDMSS app for a day or...

    Thank you. What is the best way to remote view (not on same LAN) this DVR via mobile devices? Any recommendations?

    Commercial Setup

    I think I have answered one of my questions. It seems this NVR is not a fan of H.265+ (smart Codec). Once I changed everything back to H.265 without the smart codec option, everything started to smooth out. The NVR also does not seem to like mixing streams. So if I have one or two at H.264...

    Commercial Setup

    Okay folks, need some help here. I run Blue Iris on my home setup so I am unfamiliar with using an NVR and am finding it to be a bit more involved than expected. Hoping most of my issues are user error. The NVR is a Dahua NVR608-64-4KS2 Using NIC #1 of the NVR Only All Cameras are set to...

    Commercial Setup

    Another update for those interested..:) The supplier surprised me by replacing ALL (40) of my 4mp H.264 cameras with brand new 6mp H.265 units at no added cost, pretty cool. It delayed starting the install by a week, but worth it. I have about 22 of them installed and they look really good...
