At this point, I wish I could get any recording out of it haha.

No. I don't get that either.

Right. On playback, there is a solid, continuous blue line at the bottom. No blanks or missing video segments like there should be.

Ok. Hmm. Then how do I disable continuous recording?

I went through the web UI and although it did seem to change the settings to MOTION, the cameras are still recording continuously. In fact, ALL of the cameras (even the Hikvision ones) are all recording continuously even though MOTION is set up on all of them. At least that's what the NVR says.

I just tried your procedure and while it did seem to save settings for Motion Recording, the cameras STILL record continuously. In fact, I now see that although even the Hikvision cameras are all set to MOTION, they are also still recording continuously! So, I just don't get it.

Yeah, I checked that and they are set to Event. So then I logged into the Dahua Config Tool and set the cameras up for Motion but the cameras will not "save" the changes for some reason. The program says the changes were made and saved but when I go back into setup, it still says continuous...

Ah, ok. I thought about the motion sensitivity. I had adjusted that so I'll reset to default and see if that works. Thx!

Sorry. Manual add set to ONVIF protocol through port 80 with IP address set at 192.168.254.79 and NVR IP is 192.168.254.1 and the highest IP address of another camera is 192.168.254.101. I still have the original box and manual they both say the camera is ONVIF compliant. Maybe I should upgrade...

My Hikvision NVR can not find my GeoVision camera. However, when the camera is plugged in, the video feed is a blank screen, instead of saying "No Link" when the camera is not plugged in. Also, the error message for the camera says "unknown error" when it is plugged in, instead of "IP camera not...

Oh ok. Great. I'll try it. Thx!

Hmmm. I set both of my Dahua cameras to motion and you're right, there was no indication on the setup screen that motion was working and unfortunately for me, there were also no recording segments at all even though I walked around in front of both cameras off/on all day. :/

UPDATE: I'm relaunching a new Thread to see if it catches anyone else's attention. You would think SOMEONE out there has had a similar problem and either got it fixed or knows it can't be fixed.

Yeah, Yeah, you would think that would be all that is needed. That's what I did with the Dahua cameras and it worked but it's not working with the GeoVision camera for some reason.

UPDATE: I just got my GV Utility Device program to see my GV camera! But purely by accident of course lol. What happened was I ended up configuring my RealTek Family Controller (apprently this is the ethernet controller!) during the setup process and voila! The software finally saw the camera...

I reset the camera but still no luck. I just don't get it. :/

Oh ok. Yeah, I figured as much but I wanted to try and get someone's experience with it. Thx!

Does anyone know if a Dahua camera can record by motion detection with a Hikvision NVR?

Ok, I'll try that too. Thx

Yes, my firewall is on so I will turn it off and try again. Thx. What happens if I factory reset the camera?

I got a different result with my wireless adapter running. But it didn't see the camera for some reason. See below:

Here Something went wrong. Here is the screenshot: Update: I was NOT able to ping the camera using 192.168.0.10 after setting my wireless adapter to 192.168.0.200. So, the camera's IP address must be something else?

Sorry. You are correct as usual. :) I do have the camera plugged directly into my laptop but it's still asking me to configure my wireless adapter. Is that how my laptop communicates with the camera despite it being plugged into the ethernet port? I'll do the nmap scan today and see. I'd...

UPDATE: I connected the PoE injector to the camera and then plugged the camera straight into my laptop and ran the GV device manager program but the software still did NOT see the GV camera! I then looked and looked and luckily found the original power supply for the GV camera and connected it...

Right. I'm fairly certain I tried that combination but I'll try it again. Would you know the default port number? That, I can't find unless it's 15000. Thx

Oh ok. I'll give it a try. Thx

Model is GV-MFD130.
