Smart Motion so far appears to be doing well.

Okay well that was a bust, SMD did pretty well during the daylight hours, as soon as it got dark it started triggering on every little bug that flew by the camera even 10-15 ft away.
I'll now turn off the smart motion detection, and use IVs intrusion zone see how that works.

I had the same thing happening, to stop the triggers I turned down the Sensitivity and turned up the the Threshold. Now I will see if I still get the human triggers.

Smart IR is working very well.
IVS Intrusion is working well, even tho I've not calibrated Global Setup yet.
I will have to play with the Motion settings (didn't need to do that previously) to see if SMD works better.

One of my camera's that I am running in color 24x7 SMD was able to spot a human at about 100 feet away

I have been playing with the new 2D NR slider and are finding if you turn it way down to 15 and then reduce the 3D NR to a point where you start to have noise this greatly reduces motion haze. Also I am finding if you turndown the sharpness to 25 it also reduces noise .
Testing this new FW on 4 different cams. Want to make sure that the SMD + the SmartIR fixes I put forward into this release work well.
Ok thx Andy. I just installed FW u recommended and smart ir doesnt work i have to set manually so it doesnt white out face up close. SMDZ human/ vehicle seems to be working as well as IVS. I will wait till wildcat does his tests!
which version not work? The firmware on 1st page can work well. Most guys here use that one, the new one mainly for SMD 3.0 UPDATE.
2.820.150G001.0.R,2021-05-2
i did not default after updating. Do i ho back on web gui or can i default from nvr? Thx.
All, I just completed my tests of the new 7/29 FW and can confirm this does NOT include the SmartIR fixes I provided and that I validated on the final 5/24 test FW and gave the thumbs up on. I’ve contacted Dahua and @EMPIRETECANDY to let them know this version did not include these and that the final SMD 3.0 FW needs to have those in as it fixed the large SmartIR issues I demonstrated before, were fixed and ready to incorporate into the final branch after the SMD algorithms were also corrected.
Therefore in summary, the SMD fixes I mentioned are now in place in this FW and pretty rock solid BUT SmartIR fixes still need to be incorporated. Will update you as soon as I see next test FW.
Thanks Andy for also helping drive my fixes into the final ASAP
Updated as I should have mentioned this in my initial post here. Specifically the SmartIR fixes should be implemented across all 5442's (turret, bullet cam etc) and across versions (v1 and v2) which the 05-24 addressed but this one is not. Therefore while you may see some improvements in SmartIR depending on model, my fixes were to address this for all and all versions. HTH clarify
