Dahua NVR 5216-16P-4KS2

What is the advised upgrade procedure for NVRs and cams? Factory reset and upgrade? Or is it ok to upgrade in place with existing settings?

So is this the update that blocks the Chinese cameras?? @Crazykiller you said your Chinese camera doesn't work properly anymore? Could you elaborate?

I also had issues with this specific cam with NAND flash firmware in the past and won't say it's especially for Chinese domestic cameras. I also have other Chinese models (look into my signature) which are working properly. Seems only to be the -ZS cam.
For me it isn't a real big deal that IVS is not configurable for this specific cam from the NVR WebUI. Since the 2017-04 firmware it is possible to get the cams WebUI through the NVR WebUI. So i could configure IVS there if needed.

It's possible since Firmware starting from 2017-04-18. There is a link for cams which are registered in the NVR. The search function doesn't work for me right now... just try the search yourself, i did a post for this...

Maybe not blocked, but just the cameras firmware can't updated, so can't work well with the new firmware of the NVR. This is a important thing to be careful, as i know some guys even sell Chinese NVRs, much cheaper, but i always don't recommend those cheap ones, Original english also have cheap ones too. No need to buy the cheap and can't be updated devices.

I updated to this firmware without a factory reset and it retained all of my settings. I did need to clear my browser cache before getting back into the WebUI for it to look right though. All seems to work well and I was able to subscribe to IVS push notifications in iDMSS Plus finally. I am not getting any IVS notifications - but at least the push notification setup is not erroring anymore.

DH is with Dahua logo in WebUI.
General is for OEM manufacturers.
Your decision if u wanna Dahua logo or not

Eng = English
EngSpnFrn = English, Spanish, French

So Eng & EngSpnFrn is only for the system language and has nothing to do with PAL or NTSC? Is PAL & NTSC only a setting for the camera?
 
Going through my NVR with the new firmware - I have never figured out what the IVS/Global tab was for, but on this firmware I notice I cannot select a Channel at the top to define a global area anymore. This area seems like it might be broken unless it is a browser issue for me.
 
Thanks a lot for the link
To upgrade the nvr 5216-4ks2 to use EngSpnFrn, do i need to install firstDH_NVR5XXX-4K_Eng_V3.215.0000000.0.R.20170814.bin then DH_NVR5XXX-4K_EngSpnFrn_V3.215.0000000.0.R.20170814.bin or directly install DH_NVR5XXX-4K_EngSpnFrn_V3.215.0000000.0.R.20170814.bin ?

The global IVS tab was for calibration, they have done away with that on the new NVR and camera firmware.
