    OK, I'm back in business. I was confusing the SmartPSS and NVR logins. I'm not sure if the power outage in February changed anything on the NVR. But it did on me. My bones are still thawing out. (These are ooold bones!) Thanks guys.

    Thanks! Looks like my problem is with the NVR login. Last February we had a couple power outages over 16 hours each (Dallas area) and my UPS gave out after about 10 hours. I got the NVR back up but can't find where I put the logonID info. (Yes, makes sense...) I'm going to see if I can find...

    I downloaded the latest SmartPSS for Windows today. Following installation it wants me to give it a “Password for user admin”. But when I have it find my Dahua NVR it gives me “Invalid user.” I uninstalled and reinstalled, looking carefully for an opportunity to enter a username immediately...

    Help retrieving video clip from NVR!

    Here's another video: The video quality is disappointing. The Starlight's image in IR mode with its internal IR illumination turned off used to be spectacular. Then about a year ago I made an adjustment to the image's Gamma in the app and it broke. No undo. I am reluctant to send it back...

    Eijits- combines the worst of ignorance and stupidity. The one with the black hoodie showed part of her face pretty clearly as she exited the frame the first time. I thought I could almost make out the lettering on the fronts of their outfits. Maybe a super analyst at the PD could come up...

    The day of the sculduggery was preceded by rainy and windy periods and I had been pressing the stout legs of sign frame deeper and deeper into the soil to keep it straight. So it was in there pretty good when the perps came along. If she had managed to get it loose she still would have dropped...

    I've got it down to under 7 minutes, but there is a four minute dead space I want to replace with a brief text transition that explains: "Four Minutes Later..." Can I do it in Microsoft Photos? Or what other app woulbe quick and easy? Thanks - Dave

    I never get the selected segment on the timeline to go dark green like yours shows. I'll play with it. If I don't get it I'll record the hour and chop it. If I get it right, I'll post the clip. Hilarious Sign Theft Fail. - Dave

    Hi! thanks for the quick reply. I chose my clip start and stop times with the calendars in "Time" in the menu in the lower left of the screen. II select start and stop with the scissors like you said. I get the warning about the camera playing back while trying to export (Snap1). When I get...

    Help retrieving video clip from NVR!

    Hello, I'm sure this is covered here, but I’m in a panic. Please point the way! I have a Dahua NVR4104HS-P-4KS2 with an SD-49225T-HN PTZ POE camera attached. I have not done my homework. Suddenly I have a recording from which I need to extract a video clip to give to the police. My NVR...

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    Hi- I've had my SD49225T-HNI bought from Andy for a couple of years. I had a a Windows 7 PC at the time. I first put the address 192.168.1.108 into Firefox's address bar. I got a notice I'd have to install "the plugin." I clicked on it and it got installed in Internet Explorer! (What is the...

    Recommendations Needed for PoE+ Splitter

    Oh, then the Tycon is what I really wanted. Yeah, I'm using a "Y" cable for my 12vdc and sending Ethernet without 48v to the PTZ same as with the SMAKEN. I made note of the Tycon and will use it with my next Starlight. Thanks much!

    Recommendations Needed for PoE+ Splitter

    Hey fenderman! I got one already. Intellinet PoE+ Splitter (560443) from Amazon at $43.95. I chose it because operating temperature: 0 – 60°C (32 – 140°F) was the best I could find. They sent 2 for the $$. It's in and working, but I won't know until the heat of next summer if it's up to the...

    Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera (SD49225T-HN)

    About a year ago in this thread somebody posted a wiring diagram showing a PoE+ splitter and a microphone used with our favorite PTZ camera. Does anybody have that diagram? If so can you post it so I can grab it like I should have done back then? Thanks in advance, - Dave

    Recommendations Needed for PoE+ Splitter

    Hello! I need a PoE+ splitter for my SD49225T-HN PTZ camera and Microseven M7WP-MIC microphone. In early September 2017 while testing my SD49225T-HN PTZ I found that the POE splitter that came with the microphone was getting hot. It took only a little research to discover that the splitter...

    Hi fenderman, I was using a POE splitter so I could power a microphone. Are there active splitters and mics that have good reputations here? Thanks - Dave

    The POE+ Power Splitter Died! Hello! I have had an SD49225T-HN set up at the front of my house since September 2017. It’s powered by a POE+ injector. I don’t have it connected to an NVR. I’m just using the Microsoft Explorer plugin to manually scan the area. About a week ago I lost the...

    I'm sure it's here in multiple places, but a search in the forum isn't working for me. I have a Starlight SD49225T-HN and love it, but would like to convert some DAV files to MP4. Dahua's ToolBox has proven impossible for me to access. What's with signing in, anyway? :( All of my attempts...

    Go3Team: Yes, I saw the messages in this thread about water getting into one of these cameras. I incorrectly thought it was a fluke and mounted mine where it was not protected from rain. Bummer! I can't explain this, but the problem has cleared up- apparently 100%! I'm going to get a cover...

    SD49225T-HN Going Bad (?) Hello, I bought a SD49225T-HN from Andy and installed it in early October. I set it up using the IE Plug-in that came on the CD with the camera. It’s performance and picture quality were breathtaking! See the first couple video clips (below). A few days after a...
