    EmpireTech NVR8CH-8P-2AI - Setup Questions

    On 2 different laptops, both connnected to HDMI external monitors, it's timing out. Both are using the very common Firefox browser (in Linux). It's a real nuisance. @EMPIRETECANDY

    EmpireTech NVR8CH-8P-2AI - Setup Questions

    Sorry, but another question. According to the setup video, setting "Logout Time" to "0" means that the Empiretech NVR GUI never disconnects - but it times-out just the same. Do I need to change something elsewhere, please?

    EmpireTech NVR8CH-8P-2AI - Setup Questions

    While I fuss with the Reolink cameras I have a different question. When I open the Empiretech GUI using the Vanadium browser on my android (actually GrapheneOS - and alternative OS) on my phone - it pops up a message: "Please click here to download and install the plug-in." Does anyone know...

    Britain is Lost

    No genuine 'conservative' has 'been in charge' of the Executive or the Legislative branch of Britain since Maggie Thatcher. Also, the problem has increased by geometric proportions as the flood of anti-West immigrants has continued. Reality 101.

    Britain is Lost

    Who says that X tracks anyone? Also, if they do, how does that differ from any other social media platform ... including this one? You can't communicate much on the Internet without someone tracking you - X is hardly an outlier.

    Native birth rates are collapsing while hordes of anti-Western immigrants have huge families. Natives are prosecuted for minor crimes while foreign gangs receive slaps on the wrists for heinous crimes. Mentioning God (Christians) in the public square is shunned but taking over streets and...

    EmpireTech NVR8CH-8P-2AI - Setup Questions

    To change a Reolink Doorbell cam to the Empiretech NVR from the old NVR (the old NVR was using DHCP) can I change the Network Setup to Static (from DHCP) and the IP address to 10.1.1.xx then save? Also, do I need to change the DNS to Static DNS from Auto DNS - or leave it on Auto? EDIT: That...

    ONVIF Compatible, POE, 2k or 4k Doorbell?

    I have the Reolink wireless - but I have it wired & powered via an adapter. I need to find my notes to recall how and why ... OK ... I bypassed the PS leads because the actual doorbell side required 24v. Since the NVR autodetects POE and the POE lines are disconnected - it should be OK...

    OK, turns out it was a connector failure ... CAT7 is a little more challenging than CAT5.

    EmpireTech NVR8CH-8P-2AI - Setup Questions

    It seems that some labels may have changed over time "Camera Registration Screen" doesn't show up anywhere in the NVR app and "realtime monitoring status" appears to be unknown to the Search feature of the NVR. Is this the correct screenshot? (I'll be working on the other camera problem...

    EmpireTech NVR8CH-8P-2AI - Setup Questions

    Been there. The new camera, that I just connected, behaves fine there. I'm become suspicious of the cable. I ran some tests a little earlier. I'm going to replace the inside connector as pin 8 hints at intermittent.

    EmpireTech NVR8CH-8P-2AI - Setup Questions

    It doesn't appear to be showing anywere. Not in Remote Device, etc. I did just connect my newest EmpireTech camera and it works (see pic of PoE page). Interestingly, adding the second camera caused the wattage to the first to increase.

    EmpireTech NVR8CH-8P-2AI - Setup Questions

    Yup. Unmounted the camera, killed the black & white spider, opened the compartment, then leaned on the microswitch for 30 seconds. Tried 2x, in case I didn't have good contact with the micro-switch. Nada. I noticed that it was in "Not Auto Connected" and deleted it there. Tried again ... Nada...

    OK, well, the password I thought I'd set for admin ... isn't. (I've always accessed via a user account I created.) It timed out after I tried a few. Dahua wants email, SSN, etc just to reset the password. Nope. Is there a mechanical way (e.g. pinhole press?) to cause a factory reset? Just found...

    EmpireTech NVR8CH-8P-2AI - Setup Questions

    I have our EmpireTech NVR8CH-8P-2AI setup and and working and it does display already-networked cameras OK. We have a Loryta 4mp Starlight about 80' from the NVR (it was powered via a remote POE then data via a remote router in switch mode). It is just now directly connected via a CAT7 cable -...

    Dahua NVR, DMSS and P2P - How are they connected?

    Can you bypass the potential privacy and security concerns by firewalling the NVR IP and only accessing the NVR via VPN - using a web browser (on your phone) and not the app?

    Drone swarms in the northeast?

    Charlie Kirk is young ... he routinely gets things out of context, or simply wrong. I don't know Steven Greer's credentials - but this has persuaded me to not rely on him for good intel.

    Need good SFF PC for Blue Iris and HA

    Does BI require the use of the MS version of windows #11? Or, does it work with the far more hardware-efficient, and spyware-free, Linux OS? Also, apart from the forever-bloated MS hardware demands, is a BI user likely to observe the difference between a 7th or 8th generation Intel CPU - when...

    Need good SFF PC for Blue Iris and HA

    Our son just posted a refurbished Dell OptiPlex 7050 SFF that should be more than adequate. 64g ram, i5-7500 3.40ghz, 140g SSD (for the OS & apps), 1TB HDD for storage. He has it packaged with a monitor, keyboard, and mouse - for local pickup. Even using pirateship .com I'm not sure what the pc...
