I've got two 8232s and one 5231. All have been upgraded to the latest NTSC firmware. When prompted to "Please click here to download and install the plug-in.", I am able to live view and playback on either the 8232s, or the 5231, but not both. Downloading the firmware for one, prevents live view on the other. I don't have any problem streaming with Blue Iris, but it would be nice to have the live view function when logged into the camera. Any thoughts?
 
I've run into the same thing, even between the same model of camera with different firmware versions. The web components is a bunch of files. One of the things on my "when there's time" list is to do a file compare on all of them to see if maybe swapping one file would allow me to switch between cameras. The other thing I was wondering is if the plugins are actually compatible except for a version ID code.
 
All of these cameras are current models and purchased in the last few months. I'm surprised (disappointed?) that Dahua doesn't have a single standard that they're using on their camera offerings.
