Anyone? Is the only way to watch through all the material to find the interesting point where the motion happens?

Currently I have my Dahua IP camera recording 24/7 to SD card. Is there any way to have the motion events displayed in different color in the timeline so I could easily skip to them, while keeping the 24/7 recording on.

Yes. E-mail Andy for a price quote.

So the Mac is basically acting as a SMB server, but the camera does not connect to it. How could I try to troubleshoot this? The schedule tab is not so clear, if I mark everything green, does it record all the time? And what's the difference between motion and alarm? Is there any recommended...

Anyone?

How to configure this camera to continuously record to Mac SMB share? I tried with no luck, no errors but the camera doesn't connect. And additionally: what is the correct way to configure it to record to SD card continously? No motion detection.

Thanks. I tried to find that kind of option but couldn't. If someone knows how this can be done, please tell here.

Thanks for the info... I restored to older version. Someone had emptied it.

If I don't need the varifocal, does there exist any cheaper model from Dahua? Why are so many people even wanting the varifocal, since it costs a lot extra?

I think the remote use should work fine , however, if you download large amount of files, that can be slow. But remote watching them should be okay.

Doesn't come as a surprise, but they didn't test Dahuas or Hikvisions. Foscam is mentioned... The Best Wireless Outdoor Home Security Camera

That's nice :) thx for advice again.

Okay, thanks... would I be fine running 5-6 4MP cameras recording 24/7 without motion detection with i5-3470? What would be a "maximum" amount of cameras for that processor? I know it's hard to say specific, but just a rough estimate would be nice =)

Thx to both again. :) yeah, sorry for not being specific. I just meant to ask, would it be fine with Ivy Bridge (i5-3470, which seems to support quick sync but not H264 which most Hikvision cameras use??) or would I really benefit from a Haswell one? I may not even be able find a ready-installed...
