Great, thank you!

Hi all, Can someone help me understand what is the current equivalent of the IPC-HDW5831R-ZE? It's an old Pro-Series Dahua Eyeball, 8MP, with a vari-focal eyeball camera. I have 4 of these, and one has failed due to water ingress which I've fixed. I have the wall mount already in place, so I'm...

Thats fine. I've a VPN in place to the LAN segment the NVR is on. Can you let me know how to find the IPs published by the NVR and how to enable the Camera Proxy?

ok - this is starting to make sense. I might try a direct connection to the camera. Am I right in thinking there is a way for the NVR to expose the camera directly, through like a proxy IP? [I'm a long way from the physical install]

Thanks for coming back to me. So both the camera and NVR support AI detections, the camera calls out People Identification, and the NVR people counting. I'm getting Motion alerts, but if I try and search recording history by detection - say face, I get nothing back.

Hi folks, I'm looking for firmware files for 3 x DH-IPC-HDW3541TP-ZAS, currently on firmware v2.800.0000000.30.R,2021-08-20. These are hooked into an NVR, model DHI-NVR4104HS-P-4KS2/L, currently on V4.001.0000001.1, Build Date: 20-08-2021. I have an issue with Human Detection not working, and...

Hi all, I hope you are well? I'm looking for a bit of validation if thats ok? I've been asked to deploy a camera setup for a bike track. This is for a local club, and they are budget constrained (<1,300 USD for the hardware). First up, there are two shipping containers, stacked on on top of...

Thanks for the responses all. I have shifted down to H.264H encoding, as well as moving to VBR from CBR. The stuttering has improved a lot, and CPU load is reduced. It's still not 'smooth' video - but is enough for our needs right now. thanks again.

The CPU does ramp up heavily. I will try and switch to VBR and see if that improves things.

Thanks. Smart codec cannot be enabled on the other channels. This is the only setting that is different from the other channels, it seems to only allow SmartCodec on D1. I really want to retain the resolution, I bought them because I wanted to have this res on the recordings and live view...

Hi there, Can I ask for some guidance. I have the following setup: 4 x IPC-HDW5831R-ZE (plugged directly into the NVR) 1 x NVR5208-8P-4KS2 The NVR LAN port is wired into a Unifi Gigabit switch, and I have smartPSS running on my mac-mini which is also hardwired into the same switch. Whenever...

I want to compare the current firmware level I have vs. the latest firmware available. With that (hopefully) review the release notes to see what bugs/features are addressed. All my equipment is kept up to date in terms of software releases (NAS / WiFi kit / Switches etc). I would prefer to keep...

Hi there, I'm struggling to check my firmware updates. I have bought the following from @EMPIRETECANDY: 4 x IPC-HDW5831R-ZE 1 x NVR5208-8P-4KS2 The NVR is on: 3.216.0000000.0Build Date:2018-05-30 The cameras are on: 2.622.0000000.23.R,2018-03-30 I've grabbed what I thought was the latest...

Hi there, I have a Dahua NVR5208-8P-4KS2 NVR. From what I have read in the manual, this supports two internal disks, but not using a RAID configuration. I have 4 x IPC-HDW5831R-ZE Cameras (8MP) plugged into the NVR and need to make a decision around the hard drives for this NVR. Assuming...

thanks again all!
