Hello I have a DAHUA NVR 5216-16P-4KS2 which I bought from Andy back in 2018. It has become unreliable during the last few months with multiple problems, crashes, and having to wait forever to select items and failures to record being just a few! So I want to purchase a new up to date unit. I...

Hello everybody, got a quick question to ask everyone cos somebody I’m sure has done this already… and hello moderators, please feel free to move my post to somewhere more suitable if necessary. I would like to take out my peep hole or my spy hole and replace it with a peep hole camera that...

Hello to everyone reading this, I wrote this 2 weeks ago and submitted my problem under NVR’s. However nobody has replied so I thought I would put my request for a solution here where seemingly more people might read it as cameras attract more people than maybe NVR’s do? A problem has now...

Hello and greetings to everyone reading this, haven’t written a post for absolutely ages, I guess that’s because when everything is going well, you just leave the system to do it’s job which it’s being doing brilliantly for a couple of years now, until now! A problem has now occurred with the...
