    If you step down the res to 1440 you should be able to up the FPS Cheers

    Grainy IPC-T2431T-AS-2.8mm night video - Looking for advice

    Is your FPS maxed at 15? If not, play with that and the i-frame interval as well :wave: Edit - I See your cam can do 2560 × 1440 (1 fps-25/30 fps) Maybe try a lower res with a higher fps/matching i-frame

    Hikvision cameras secure?

    I'm assuming here, but guessing they (hik) are banned from government solutions due to the RTSP admin@admin issue... Looks decent

    4XXX-8P-4K2S recently died, looking for more horsepower

    Thanks for the SmartPss tip @mat200 Got me partially back up until I decide on an NVR I really don't use alerts and prefer to record 24/7 Had a spare 18P PoE switch and re-used my 6TB hdd to get back online :headbang:

    4XXX-8P-4K2S recently died, looking for more horsepower

    The 5126 i/l need "ANPR" it appears. I was looking at the N54B3P as it states -- (Doesn't specifically say "ANPR") Automatic License Plate Capture The NVR automatically captures and stores vehicle license plate images from a dedicated license plate capture camera connected to the NVR. During...

    4XXX-8P-4K2S recently died, looking for more horsepower

    I have the Z12E and am using OpenAlpr to read plates, was hoping to get rid of that service with an NVR upgrade... I see, looks like just a plain jane NVR for me for the time being... Thanks for the replies

    4XXX-8P-4K2S recently died, looking for more horsepower

    Hmm, maybe I need to verify, but does the IPC-HFW5231E-Z12E work with any of the Dahua NVRs that support LPR/ANPR? Or do I need a new "ITC" cam for ANPR settings/functionality?

    4XXX-8P-4K2S recently died, looking for more horsepower

    I do also have a Synology 1621 I could run surveillance station on, but I kinda like the NVR standalone. My current LPR picks up around 10k plates a week! (Busy street) It has already come in handy with my neighbors cat converter being stolen off his Prius! @mat200 , does BI work on Linux...

    4XXX-8P-4K2S recently died, looking for more horsepower

    Ok, whittled it down to these 2 NVRs N54B3P DHI-NVR5216-16P-I One question I do have though is, will the LPR offering work with my IPC-HFW5231E-Z12E camera I am currently using for LPR via OpenALPR (Would like to rid myself of this monthly fee) Need 16P due to my currently in-place 8 cameras...

    4XXX-8P-4K2S recently died, looking for more horsepower

    Hello again fellas, My LeChange converted Dahua 8p 4k2s NVR died over the weekend and am looking for a replacement and a possible "upgrade" in ways performance. I believe the 5216 will give me what I want, plus having the additional ports expands my headroom for future cams. Would the N52B2X...

    OpenALPR Tool - Save and Query CSV Exports

    Thanks all for keeping this updated Edit - My OpenALPR agent appeared to have crapped itself so I had to re-install.. I then had to change my "camera_id" to int to get things working (as with the above mods)...

    Wireshark is your friend in times like these... Monitor the traffic and see if the ip changes to the NVR assigned IP You may have to change you PC NIC to access it Happy flashing :)

    Just to update this thread (might be useful to condense the meat of the FW flash to a separate thread?) but I recently had to flash a Lechange (same 8 port NVR) unit for my buddy to a Dahua setup and the process was a little different than when I did mine. First, my camera commands.txt needs...

    OpenALPR - No more free rides

    Signed up for the $5 a month plan being the valuation of the item (to me) is worth it... I tracked roughly 15k plates last week on my street and helped the neighbor with a van break in with my home cams + lpr He was more than happy to see the data I have. Will ride it out until LPR tracking...

    FWIW, my ivs works fine as long as smart codec is disabled and I am able to export videos just fine.. Sometimes playback in the non-extension browser mode is flaky, so I find myself using the nvr for this...

    Congrats @Otown It would be interesting to find out "why" the other PC was blocking comms to the NVR and not the cams, but in the end you got it done.. Enjoy FW updates from Dahua and have fun

    OpenALPR Tool - Save and Query CSV Exports

    Hi @prince1566 Just make sure they most recent plate image is fairly new ( < 5 mins) and I would say it is working as it should. Mine has the same behavior, but new plates keep coming in... Hope this helps

    OpenALPR Tool - Save and Query CSV Exports

    Hi @prince1566 Are you able to "see" anything in the LPR viewer? My LPR Downloader always skips the import but I am able to see the newly added images, I am assuming this is due to the files "already being there" prior to importing them... Will be tough to confirm my hypothesis though as the...

    ip_poe has a good point, use the upper most FW file on the Dahua website, the 200+MB zip file... Keep us posted...

    Pandemic threat? Anyone else concerned?

    Interesting data -- https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/about/index.html So is the proper name now "Novel" coronavirus?
