    Looking for an IP cam with automatic sensor light built-in

    The problem is that only her face would be visible above the fence, so detecting a dog would also be a failsafe in case the AI detection misses her.

    Looking for an IP cam with automatic sensor light built-in

    He's mostly an inside dog, so the light would ostensibly only come on while he's outside at night (not that often).

    Looking for an IP cam with automatic sensor light built-in

    Motion Detection is out of the question, sorry. It will be placed in a backyard with lots of bushes/trees, ie. As soon as there is a strong breeze or rain event, it will spit notifications. His NVR doesn't have pet detection built in, so it has to be on the camera.

    Looking for an IP cam with automatic sensor light built-in

    Hey guys, I'm looking for a good low light 5MP/4K PoE camera (either bullet or turret) which has a built in light which can be set to turn on/off based on AI detection of humans or pets. My dad has a unique situation where his neighbour -- who is an elderly lady with schizophrenia -- routinely...

    Dahua NVR -- where to set pre-recording seconds for IVS rule

    Almost one year later and still not fixed. This is really frustrating because it means I'm forced to disable general recording (which I want at a lower resolution), just to be able to see in full res what happened a few seconds earlier. Has anyone come up with a workaround or solution? Or do you...

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    The video Andy linked said specifically that SMD is a 'filter' for MD. Whenever I enable IVS, it triggers the alarm sound on my cameras for some reason, even though I have it unchecked as per my screenshot in the OP.

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    Thanks, I've followed this entire video, and turned acupick off and enabling AI mode, but even though I have enabled motion detection and SMD on all channels for humans, I still don't see any 'blue' intelligence recordings, it's all just green for general recording. What am I doing wrong?

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    The camera unfortunately only has 720p for SS 3. SS 1 and 2 only have up to 480p :-\

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    Ok I can confirm it doesn't. There doesn't seem to be any recording info under SS for that channel now. Damn. Is there any other way to have the NVR pick up on this feed? It's a Dahua varifocal cam.

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    Done. I have one camera that only has mainstream and substream 3 enabled (SS 3 is the only way to get 720p recording out of it). Will this still pick it up?

    Does this look right? This is for all cameras and 7 days.

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    Another question: Should the PoE indicators be red? I'm getting live feeds successfully from all cameras, and they're all plugged into the inbuilt PoE ports.

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    Thanks! I'll give it a go. I've already tried that trick with enabling IE in Win 11, but the performance is SLOW. Just navigating different pages within the NVR UI is incredibly laggy, and even when viewing video previous in the IVS screen for example, scrolling down requires that the browser...

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    Hey guys, So I bought my mother a NVR16CH-16P-2AI with 5 Dahua cameras. I'm running it headless as I'll be managing it from her workstation in her study. There is an 8TB WD Purple installed. I got it working to the point where I have initialized the cameras and I can see the live feeds, but I'm...

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    Oh my bad. I didn't realize you meant that they're running two parallel systems.
