Okay I believe I have this working. @Timokreon I found the alarm bell is supposed to be red to get alerts. @bigredfish I was not getting email alerts even though I was set up to get them on the cameras until I went into the NVR settings itself and also checked the box there as well. The...

Thanks @bigredfish for the help. For anyone reading I unplugged all cameras and restarted the NVR prior to updating the firmware and added the cameras back one at a time. All went smoothly. I was able to get my new email "test succeeded" using the app password in gmail. I should have an idea...

Ok thanks for the help. I'll keep you posted - Do you remember if you had to reconfigure the tripwire you set up on the cameras or did they automatically carry over since they are setup on the cameras themselves?

I'm confused. You're suggesting I use Pale Moon to connect to the ip of my machine like I make changes now and upload the firmware from there? I thought I would lose connection this way during the process.

Thanks @bigredfish I'll give it a shot when I have some time. I'm going away at the end of December and really don't want to mess this up before then. What's the best way to update the firmware? I'm assuming a USB stick formatted to FAT32 plugged directly into the unit. Restart the NVR...

Thanks @bigredfish - - I'm wondering if I can go directly from 3.215.0000000.3 to that one. I thought I had to update to the original V4 first. Also I have HDW5231R-Z on firmware 2.622.0000000.18.R, Build Date: 2017-11-10 HDW5231R-ZE on firmware 2.460.0000.15.R, Build Date: 2017-09-07...

Okay just tried to app specific password but "test failed" as expected. I'll have to find the first firmware that fixed this issue.

Thanks wittaj. I can try that but I'm fairly confident that it's not Gmail that will be my problem. I'm pretty sure it's an issue on Dahua's end that was fixed in a firmware that I never upgraded to.

Hi, I have a Dahua NVR5216-16P-4KS2E and have never updated the firmware - I'm currently using System Version: 3.215.0000000.3 Build Date: 2017-12-11 For the last 4-5 years or so I have been using my own personal email server with camera triggers/alerts but with the prices increasing I...

I just noticed a problem with playback using DMSS 1.99.411 I'm hoping Dahua tech support knows about this and can resolve this soon. @EMPIRETECANDY

I think playback is finally fixed after 2.5 years of waiting.

In another thread @catcamstar opened up tcp 8888 instead of 2195 and got push notifications working. I’ll try it this weekend when I have some time.

No need to register - have you tried restarting the NVR and your phone? I always find that usually resets it when it get's messed up.

Got one at 5:54 AM EST today on DMSS. My iDMSS is old so it doesn’t trigger.

4.92.000 iDMSS just got pushed out. I thought it was dead and they were only updating DMSS. I wonder if playback is fixed for IVS events. If anyone grabs this please report your findings. Like I said in past posts I’m still on version 4.31.002 from what I believe is March 2019.
