Thanks everyone, I plan to apply some dielectric grease to my RJ45 connections, as one more protection measure. Glad I could help prevent others from learning the hard way. /dan

Hi, Winter is coming! Today, I swapped my summer wheels for winter wheels on the cars, got the snow shovels out, put away patio furniture that we won't use in the winter and drained the garden hoses along with the hose bibs at the inside water shut-off valves. After dinner, I found this in my...

Hi, I entered feedback onReport Improper Conformance Claim - ONVIF and will report any on-going responses. Thanks, everyone! /dan

Hi Arisobrat, I am not saying that my camera is dead in the water - for now, I've added my primary and secondary RTSP stream URL's into NxWitness and my cameras are functioning. BUT, the Dahua in-camera analytics capabilities will not work with NxWitness 4.0 unless the camera properly reports...

Great idea Adam. I am going to send this to the ONVIF consortium and refer to the Dahua product spec that mentions ONVIF. /dan

@EMPIRETECANDY - has there been any response from Dahua engineers from your contact points on this issue? I can't see how they can advertise this camera as ONVIF compliant with the latest software issues. All for now, /dan

Thanks everyone, now it's up to @EMPIRETECANDY to convince Dahua to fix this. /dan

Sadly, the streams cannot be configured manually. I have asked for this feature for us "experts". The other parts of the ONVIF interface are working fine... stuff like the PTZ stuff and the Events, it's just the auto-discover of the streams that is broken. /dan

Thanks aristobat, No Problem (as your avatar says). BTW - I got the following response from Dahua USA on my support ticket, so I will have to lean on Empire Tech Andy to get the software updated. /dan - - - - - - "Thank you for the response. We are sorry to hear that you are having issues...

Thanks arisobrat... So to be clear - is it true "For all your cameras Dahua (and otherwise), the Profile button works?" My problem is that for the latest firmware on my Dahua 2mp turret, HDW5231R-ZE it is not working. /dan

Alastair, I appreciate your comments. I put ODM on a VM so I could easily revert to a snapshot and be 100% rid of it when finished using it. I have opened a ticket with Dahua USA - but who knows what they will do since this was an OEM camera running their software. I will keep ipcamtalk (and...

My issue is not an issue of networking, I don't really care about ODM or its automatic discovery capabilities as I only have 3 cameras (with 4 lenses total). I am only using ODM to test the camera's "onvif" capabilities. The issue is that ODM is requesting the "onvif" profiles of the camera...

BTW - ODM was installed in a Windows 10 VM on my MacBook that runs VMware Fusion :-). I am very new to ODM - I manually added my camera's only for the purposes of validating the error that was returned when attempting to get the ONVIF profiles. I have no other real need to use ODM at this...

Hi, First, I got my cameras from Empire Tech Andy (from amazon.com). I am having trouble getting Nx Witness 4.0 beta to recognize the dual streams from an "onvif" point of view. I have been working with the Networkoptix Support (a great team) but all fingers point at the camera software at...

... still building my home monitoring soln... will share when its done.

Hi, Do you know if there is direct RTSP stream support available? ONVIF? API's for turning on/off IR or LED's? I'd like to integrate this into an existing nx Witness deployment and am not interested in "YaApp" (Yet another App - with potential Cloud Security baggage). Maximus has not...

From US Government Ban of Dahua, Hikvision, Huawei Takes Effect Now /dan P.S. I just bought 3 Dahua Starlight's from EmpireTech Andy (awesome). This will put downward pressure on future pricing.
