I bought several Dahua IP cameras and after a few years I'm really dissapointed, especially when I was given Imou camera for free unexpected and comparing the software its like day and night.
I was never really able to configure having access from my phone to cameras with DMSS, sometimes it worked for a month, then it stopped. When using SD card two cameras didn't overwrite when running out of space, had to do it manually.
I got Dahua SD49225XA-HNR it was supposed to have auto tracking, it doesn't. And the software is as bad as with sub 100€ Dahua cameras. Yesterday DMSS was working, today its not.
At one location I'm using Blue Iris and the cameras are doing fine, but when compared to 30€ Imou that even does sound for my purpose Imou is superior in every way just because the software works (so far). I spent at least 50 hours trying to figure out Dahua and I'm far from tech unsavvy.
So in the end is Dahua ment just for enthusiasts and/or professional installers or am I missing something?
