    New Dahua SD52C432GB-HNR PTZ working with BI but not recording on local storage.....need help please

    The weird part is that when I check storage, there is definitely something being recorded as 151GB of the 256GB has been used up! But when I check Recordings, there is no data available.

    New Dahua SD52C432GB-HNR PTZ working with BI but not recording on local storage.....need help please

    Yes, before I inserted in camera & also reformatted while in camera. Recorded fine when I Enabled Smart Motion Detection > Humans. This is when I first tested it indoors before I installed the camera at our 2nd floor eave. As mentioned, I never tested recording using the Smart Plan > IVS option.

    Has my Hikvision ip camera been hacked?

    I reset my cablemodem to factory defaults. Turns out uPnP was enabled by default, so I disabled that. Was able to factory reset all ip cameras & disable uPnP on all of them except for Hikvision DS-2532F-IWS which I disconnected before, ever since I discovered the red text overlay. Tried to...

    I did go into BlueIris to double-check the login/pwd but couldn’t get in with it and yes, it’s connected to a Zyxel unmanaged switch & port forwarded.

    Is the NEW Dahua Mini-PTZ 52C432GBNR better than the SD4A425DB-HNY?

    Changed the thread title to compare with the most recent mini-PTZ everyone here is familiar with. I know there are no IR LEDs, but what if there is enough street lighting? Looking to replace the 2MP DH-SD52C225U-HNI as they are exactly the same form factor.

    Is this a good cable for an outdoor covert camera installation?

    I’ll have to do some reading up as I’m not well versed on fiber. My run is around 40’ (20’ inside; 20’ outside) through a PoE+ power injector, from a Zyxel PLA6456 powerline adapter.
