I need help setting up my Dahua HFW4300R-Z in Blue Iris (version 4.3.9.7). First of all, when I first registered the camera on the network ip config page -it showed up immediately in the camera window and worked just fine. I got 15fps, just as I configured in the camera interface. I then changed the default TCP port in the cam interface from 37777 to 37774 so that I can access the cam externally from my android IP Cam Viewer app. Each camera has to have a different tcp port -right (I have 3 other Dahua cams)?
I also forwarded this port on my router. After doing this, I can't get the camera working again properly.
When I now try registering the camera in the network ip configuration page, I can only get it to work with the following settings:
make- generic
model-jpg/gif/etc,image requests
path-cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi?1

The problem now is that I can't get more than 1 fps from the camera in Blue Iris -even when recording. The camera is set for 15 fps in the cam interface. I've tried different settings but nothing seems to work.

I have also tried the following:
reinstalling Blue Iris from scratch,
restarting my network,
reverting to the original TCP ports set in the camera interface
