Hi all,

I’m troubleshooting a Dahua NVR/DMSS issue after changing internet provider/router.

Setup:

  • Camera 1: connected directly to the NVR PoE port
  • Camera 2: connected via a separate switch/mesh point
What I fixed so far:

  • Camera 2 was still on the old network
  • Using the NVR “Modify IP” function, I changed camera 2
  • Camera 2 now works when added manually in DMSS, so the camera itself seems reachable. Thank you @bigredfish
Current problem:
  • Live view works.
  • Motion detection notifications are received in DMSS.
  • But when I tap the motion event, DMSS says: “Video not found”.
  • In playback, the NVR only shows recordings up to around <span>14:49</span>; nothing newer appears. (it is 16:43 here)
  • This problem is happening with camera 1, which was not moved to the new network. I only updated its firmware.
Settings checked:

  • Recording schedule for channel 1 appears enabled for General/Motion/IVS across the day.
  • Record control is set to Auto for main stream and sub stream.
  • HDD status is Normal and Read/Write.
  • HDD is full: <span>0 GB / 3.58 TB</span>.
  • “HDD full” is set to Overwrite.
  • Quota is disabled/off.
  • NVR date/time is correct.
  • IPC time synchronization is enabled.
Question:
What else should I check when live view and motion alerts work, but the NVR stops recording and playback only shows footage up to an earlier time?

Could this be a recording database/overwrite issue after firmware update? Should I reboot the NVR first, try manual recording, rebuild/repair the database, or format the HDD as a last resort?

Thanks in advance.
