    Opinion on cheap IP cameras from sites like AliExpress?

    I know there are starlight’s available for like $130 but where are you finding these cheap $80 starlights?? Could you please show me where I might find these? I would buy these in a heartbeat! I’ve tried looking for them but I can’t find them, even with slow shipping I can’t find these prices...

    Important! About dahua hacked Chinese cams and NVR issues

    *facepalm* of course! Yeah sorry I totally misinterpreted the bullet points. I thought this was something completely new that came up so Andy needed to make a post about it. I though the nvr firmwares had been blocking Chinese cams for many months now and that Andy was reporting a new change...

    Important! About dahua hacked Chinese cams and NVR issues

    I hope so. If not I’ll need to buy some more that are on old firmware ASAP. Andy’s post bullet point number 2 says So will buying new camera with brand new firmware block access to nvr from the camera side? Because it seems like Andy is saying that the camera will block off access to any nvr on...

    Important! About dahua hacked Chinese cams and NVR issues

    @EMPIRETECANDY So what you’re saying is if I have a nvr 5216 and a bunch of China region cams, I can’t buy anymore China region cams? The new ones with new firmware won’t work on my nvr and I must buy international versions. Any idea what the latest manufacture date on the box is that will...

    Dahua gDMSS / iDMSS Plus free in the app stores.

    Does anyone know how to make the push notifications show a snapshot of the IVS triggers? Whenever I select it it says “media not found” or something like that. I can get snapshots whenever I have the Nvr send me a email of IVS triggers but not in the app

    NVR5XXX-4KS2 latest new firmware.

    What is the second newest firmware that still allows for use of Chinese cameras? I just realized I haven’t updated my nvr in a really long time

    Dahua APP LeChange

    Thanks for checking. Idmss is the only app I regularly use that has not been updated for the iPhone X. Plus, I think Apple will stop accepting app updates that do not support iPhone X in a few months

    Dahua NVR5216-4KS2 / NVR5216-16P-4KS2

    I have the version 1 and mine already does this. When it’s 75 in my house the thing is loud as can be but when it’s 60 in my house the thing is near silent. The fan speed changes based on how hot it gets.

    Dahua APP LeChange

    That’s quite unfortunate. I figured that would happen since they dahua hasn’t bothered to update idmss for the iPhone X. I am wary of using this Lechange app. It ask for too many permission and you need an account to use the app? Why do we need a account to use this?

    Dahua APP LeChange

    Woah, can you clarify the meaning of this? Does this mean idmss and gdmss are being discontinued??

    Default Password for Camera?

    So I just received my IPC-hdw4433c-a. I’m trying to long into the camera directly. So here’s the weird thing, the default password and username: admin and admin does not work. I can’t log on. However, my nvm can view the camera and change settings etc. I know the NVR must log on to see cameras...

    Cheap system options

    I know this is the unpopular opinion here, but I would recommend you just get the cheap cameras. They work very well. Obviously they don’t work as well as the starlights at night, but they can still see stuff. I have 7 cheap Chinese cameras (6 4431c-a and 1 4431r-z) and they work flawlessly...
