    EmpireTech 2023 Autumn Sales Sep.20th-30th

    6th place "random" prize showed up today. Wow! Turns out it was a IPC-T5241H-AS-PV 2.8mm Which is way cooler than I guess I was expecting for a random 6th place prize. I'm definitely going to have to continue to get in on the Sales/Drawings in the future as well. Thanks Andy!

    IPC-T2431T-AS 3.6mm Offline - Salvageable?

    I realize this is an old thread, but I have the same camera, purchased around the same time, that is experiencing this exact same issue. The cam stopped responding/recording. I have done many hard resets, I can get to the cam either by default 108 up or setting it to DHCP. However as...

    Woohoo. Got one of the 6th place random prizes. Looking forward to finding out what it is as much as I was looking forward to this sale/drawing.

    DMSS and DMSSHD on Ipad on iphone notifications

    A cloud account yes. I just meant you didn't have to pay for monthly cloud storage. Sorry for the confusion there. That was one of the big selling points of these Cameras (local storage and no cloud storage fees) as well as great image quality. But none of that means much if I don't have an...

    DMSS and DMSSHD on Ipad on iphone notifications

    Seems like a good explanation, but I seriously hope you're wrong,or perhaps there is a work around that can fix this. I know there are other camera apps that send push notifications and in turn update the application where the data itself isnt stored on the cloud. I setup a few cameras for a...

    DMSS and DMSSHD on Ipad on iphone notifications

    So the app is still severely hindered then. Dang. That's my major issue since push was working for the most part (until the other day) it is such a hassle to go back and find videos in the timeline since it had a bug where it jumps around. The clips SHOULD go into the messages by default. Not...

    DMSS and DMSSHD on Ipad on iphone notifications

    So push notifications are working on IoS again? If you don't click/open the psuh notifications (say you have 12 of them and just dismiss them) are the clips going to the messages area of the application (if you don't actively have the app open when they come in)

    DMSS and DMSSHD on Ipad on iphone notifications

    I tried both of the iphone apps. Push notifications will show up from the app IF you use a cloud account. So I can get push notifications, however those notifications do not add the video clips to the messages section. So if you swipe them away instead of opening ever one of them one by one the...

    DMSS and DMSSHD on Ipad on iphone notifications

    I have not heard back from him in a few weeks regarding these issues. I too have no issues on the Android app, but iOS fails to add the notification/push videos to the messages section. Very disappointed and the person I set these up for is not happy either since they don't have a good way to...

    DMSS and DMSSHD on Ipad on iphone notifications

    I have this exact same problem and have been working with empire Andy since July and we have yet to have any success in getting messages to actually appear. Going through the timeline is not a great option either as it constantly flips back to the beginning of the day after watching a clip or...

    DMSS IVS Notifications

    Sorry on the slow Reply. The neighbor i set these camears up for was on vacation and then came down with Covid so i haven't been able to assist them. Well I have followed the suggestions in this thread and still have not had success. I setup an online account and added the cameras to it. Now...

    DMSS IVS Notifications

    That's a bit disheartening. I went with Dahua cameras because of their good performance and reputation around here. Had I known that the application wouldn't correctly report and display alerts I would have tried something else. I still have yet to try the cloud account "fix". But that doesn't...

    DMSS IVS Notifications

    I'm in the united states'. Makes sense. Don't wanna tweak the system that you're actively testing/troubleshooting. I might give a different dahua OEM vendors app a try. Didn't know maybe if anyone had tried other apps as options,or even if they were compatible.

    DMSS IVS Notifications

    One other thought... Do you think we could use a 3rd party/resellers app instead of the dahua DMSS app. Maybe Amcrest or Lorex or something... At least in the intermediary time while we wait for a fix or sorts?

    How does one find a local dahua tech support. I'll happily start a case and report my findings as well.

    DMSS IVS Notifications

    I am not using a DMSS account on the system that I setup. Just added the cameras to the app and expected them to work and get proper notifications and messages. Which as mentioned is not happening. I wasn't even aware that was an option or even necessary for cameras that use SD to store the...

    DMSS IVS Notifications

    I just set up 2 cameras for my neighbor friend and he and his wife.have the same issue. Alerts push all the time but if he clicks on them, or opens the app there are no new "messages" in the section where new motion alerts/video clips appear. But if I manually go to video playback I can see...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I was logged into the camera via Batch Config tool as I had just updated the firmware successfully and was able to verify that the FW version number had changed. And i was closely following PeteC's suggested steps... I'm not sure i know what you mean when you are asking if the camera...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Just an update to my question/issues: I was finally able to reset my camera, Just not via the main screen > Restore > Complete Restoration. That continually failed. I was able to open the Remote Configuration, go to the System Maintenance Section, then choose Restore Default Settings. After...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Well as mentioned previously I couldn't craft a mount out of shims due to my specialty siding. Not only was it double Dutch lap,but apparently the siding projections are different between brands (1/2”, 5/8” 3/4” etc) So finding someone with my similar siding was less likely. I asked around, and...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Well it was a good idea. Guess I never noticed but I have double lap 4.5" dutch siding which means each piece is approx 4.5" in tall. About 2.5" of that is totally flat, the problem is the other 2" is the part that contains the drop back against the wall so it's much less gradual than your...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Thanks for the suggestion. My wife wasn't pleased with the mounting block options available at Menards/Lowe's either. I found a person on Etsy who 3d prints a variety of diff mounts for siding. He didn't have one for any of these cameras though so I figured it was going to be mounting block or...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Just got the RCA version of this doorbell. Has anyone mounted it to vinyl siding? Anyone have any suggestions on which mount or block to use? Maybe something interchangeable with next/ring or any other brand?

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    That would make sense why I couldn't start with eth4 range and DHCP server and why I couldn't get back in after changing eth1 range. (Didn't manually set my up) I'll play around with it. And don't get me wrong, I dont have to change it, just figured why not give er' a whirl and see if I can...

    Ubiquity EdgeRouter X - Configuring to Isolate Surveillance Networks

    I'm just getting started building my network and camera solution. I started out thinking that I could get something similarly setup with my current Router equipment that i have. Not the case (i must have been thinking of an older router that i had w/ DD-WRT installed on it) Thankfully i saw...
