    Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-Z to produce JPG snapshots

    You may also try IVS. Draw a rule on the nest and try it. I think the function intrusion would be best here. and set the target min and max size. set the action to enter & exit. Here you can find a older Wiki from Dahua: IVS:Intrusion Detect - Dahua Wiki Edit: you must first enable the...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    My last idea I have: There is another tool from dahua. Called Convert Tool. I think it can only install via the toolbox. tools - Dahua Technology The size of your 2.7 GB dav file takes longer to export. also depends on what you have for a computer or processor. Since you need patience accordingly.

    What “I Frame Interval” option does?

    On Dahua Cams IVS is disabled when smart codec is used. So only the Motion Detection works.

    This morning under our carport

    This was a typical :brainfart: by the mayor and his people. To save energy, the street lights were turned off. But that changed now because I showed the video along with some neighbors to the mayor.:smash:. He said: it was just a test in the summer months to see if this actually saved energy...

My opinion. Show me a camera that can do more for the same price.:):) I think many problems are due to new...

    Snapshot file format

    did you try it with smartpss? with this software, it should definitely work to access the videos and snapshots. If so, it's up to the browser. If both do not check the SD card. For me it was the problem with a cheap SD card. showed that something was recorded, but the video was broken.
