    @bigredfish I was using Firefox. I figured it’d be ok after initial setup. But I’ll go back to edge.

    Help with initialisation of empiretech cameras?

    Thanks @wittaj I encountered an error today that I’m not quite sure what to make of. The configuration page for each camera will not load. Sharpness , brightness and other tweaks to get the best picture settings is faulty. It will load the image settings, but not the actual picture. Is this...

    Hey guys. Just stopping by to say Thanks. I still have some questions but I’m really impressed with the cameras and not. I’m remote viewing via laptop and was wondering about the live view. It is delayed slightly and I was wondering if there’s a setting which I can get a live feed instead of a...

    Help with initialisation of empiretech cameras?

    I used a spare monitor to do the initial setup. I have both cameras added and have figured out remote viewing. But here’s something you might find hilarious, I’m not sure it’s actually storing the recording to the HD. If anyone has advice on how confirm this I’d appreciate it.

    HDD is already installed. I do not have a ‘monitor’ I do have both Mac and windows laptops. The NVR has a hdmi port which I believe I can connect to my tv and use that as a ‘monitor’

    Help with initialisation of empiretech cameras?

    Hey again guys. Again my apologies. Do I power the net and connect it to a router? or Do I power the nvr and connect it to my laptop? In my defence, the instructions jumps from power to setup which is why I’m uncertain. Please advise.

    Ok guys got the nvr yesterday on expedited shipping. Which means I’m a part of the Dhua owners group lol. My laptop is singing. So I’ll setup the nvr as soon as I get some advice/answer to the following. Is the nvr plug and play or do I need a router? If there’s a vid or guide already out there...

    Help with initialisation of empiretech cameras?

    Will I need anything in addition to this and also how is the installation I’m hoping it’s as plug and play as possible. Also this is 4 tb where as the one you posted earlier had 6tb. But required a @wittaj I’ve been taking your advice before I signed up. Which is why I got the cameras. I was...

    Help with initialisation of empiretech cameras?

    Hey guys. I snagged the empiretech cams and had them shipped over to the UK which took some time. The situation and the reason behind needing cams have been exasperated so I don’t have a choice and will have to purchase the nvr to be delivered asap. Any Amazon UK recommendations would be...

    Help with initialisation of empiretech cameras?

    Success. I’ve got a few days before it re-writes over existing storage. Thankfully the spare laptop suffices. In terms of the nvr I’d like to connect a laptop via Ethernet and review the footage in real time while the feed still records to the nvr storage. Is there a specific feature I need to...

    @bigredfish I plan on using iris or one of the other monitoring programs but as for now I’m storing the feeds to my laptop which has a few Tabs of storage. Sitting and waiting on info on how to give each cam its own ip. Before moving on to how to use the cams directly with the laptop without...

    Help with initialisation of empiretech cameras?

    I did not. And I feel apprehensive saying this as a newb and this being your field, I’m not exactly sure how to do that. As things stand I have both plugged into the router and powered but the router is only registering one.

    Help with initialisation of empiretech cameras?

    Hey guys. Got both up and running separately but once both are connected to the router I am only getting a single feed. Also I tried adding both cameras directly to the laptop but no joy. Is there a setting I’m missing? I am using two cameras by the way.

    Help with initialisation of empiretech cameras?

    @wittaj You mention internet explorer, specifically. However I can get that version for Mac, only edge. On windows 11 that’s also a problem unless, based on what I’m reading, I go back to w10 which Microsoft won’t allow because they want me on w10. Any advice?
