I have not been on here in awhile so this is why the late response. I have this cam. Dont expect alot from the AI. In fact. I would rather have fixed starlight cams.

I’m still waiting to hear from others before I take the plunge.

The main feature a lot of us are waiting for is web login with no plugin. Are you saying this is broken?

Would like to hear from Andy before trying this. We have all been waiting for this a long time.

Is this heaven? No......it’s Iowa.

Are they planning on the firmware update that eliminates the need for the plugin? HTML5 or something?

Most Linux VMS I have played with are by no means full featured. They are some options that are worth checking out. Most are not install and run, they require tweaking to get installed correctly. Have a play at Shinobi. I have heard the zoneminder thing 100000 times, I feel it’s bunk. I...

After taking down a few Dahua cams for upgrade.....the new ones got anti-seize on the screws. They get whiteish corrosion on them, almost chalky.

Had a 8, gave to a friend to get started. Then bought a 16. Had the cpu load problem with 5-6 high res cams. Sold that one and bought a NVR6a08-32-4ks2. I have grown to 18 cams with my last cam, a 25x zoom starlight ptz with auto tracking.

You will do it again.....just get a 16. If you get a 16 and never load it up at least you will have more encoding power. Some of the NVRs have crap FPS on higher resolutions or a few 4K cams and all the sudden you are at 80% cpu capacity.

Are the new firmwares coming out for the NVRs supporting the HTML5 no plugin structure? Been steadily watching for NVR6a08-32-4ks2. When Andy posts firmware’s they are higher versions than what’s on Dahuas site for the global/oem versions. Wondering if someone has a source like that for USA...

Totally. I found out its a Logitech BT MK270. I bought one and does not work. The mouse that comes with it does. I emailed Dahua and asked for usb keyboard added to firmware.

How is this BT USB keyboard working on this Dahua DVR? I can’t for the life of me get any usb keyboard to work. I’m on number 6 of trying.

I live in a “good neighborhood”.... with that being said, we get car checkers about 4-10 times a year. We have had some other down right crazy travelers come through also. As well as package pirates. I really believe neighborhood means nothing. People think if there street is all lawyers and...

Just ordered 2x IPC-HDW5231R-ZE for back of my house where it’s super dark. Also bought SD6CE225-HNI. I pretty excited to play with this one. I’m thinking mounting about 15 feet above the grade of the monitoring area on the front of my home in hopes of grabbing the most of my street. Brings my...

Still waiting for usb keyboard support for basic entry. I can’t stand using onscreen keyboard pop up. A friend has a oem Dahua tribrid and for some freak reason a BT with dongle keyboard works.

Lorex has a two year warranty, if you used your Costco card, you added another year to two years depending on what the item is. Have you looked into firmware updates? If you want a different NVR, at least get this one fixed and sell it to cover part of the new one.

It is a Netgear FS728tpV2. The price was right at $50.

I have purchased an additional 24 port poe manageable switch L2 with a few L3 options. I will be running both this switch plus a dumb 24 port for all other devices. I have a Dahua 32ch NA06-4K with two gbit uplinks. I will use one to connect to the poe switch uplink and one to connect to my...

Well.....when ever you hear a fart do you not look and try to see who did it?

Screw it. Bought a refurb off lease Dell. There are great prices on returned leases. i7, 16 gig, 128gig ssd for $300.00. I want to run, hate I say it, "Windows" versions of SmartPSS, config tools, etc. I have not had a Windows box in over 10 years. Only Mac OS and Linux. I will dual boot it...

It's completely pinned down to if IVS is on or off. Absolutely no plugin failures on any cam if the IVS is off. The second it's on, fail.

I had changed them all back to 264 when this problem started.

Well it crashes if I set up ivs on the nvr and try to login via web to cam. The ivs display disable is not sticky and I can't move that fast to do it at login.

I feel that the NVR is refreshing IVS settings from the cams and they become IVS settings in the NVR. Like a double IVS setting. I am getting two notifications per IVS trigger. I have disabled all IVS in the cams themselves. Just placed a IVS setting from the NVR on the same cam. I am going to...

Well. When I disable IVS features in the cams they all work. WTH.

I have got it to work by deleting all /library/internet plug-ins and reinstalling the web plugin from one of Dahuas sites from another country. It has a later date by a few months than all the other ones. All cams work except for the two 8mp cams. All others are china hacks or international...

The more I read about High Sierra the more I should have stayed Sierra. It seems Apple as well as app developers want to control how you use the equipment you purchased and limit the capability to "make your experience better". Makes me want to build a Linux box.

Wife has a old macbook air also. Tried it on hers with the plugin from the cam. She runs 11.03 Safari but an older OS El Capitan. Works.

I am shocked at the quality of the 2mp starlight cams image. I have international and USA Dahua 4k cams. They are amazing in day light, at night the starlight takes it all. Sin happens mostly at night.
