    DaHua NVR5216-16P-4KS2 firmware upgrade questions.

    I prefer to do go that way indeed. However I see in previous posts to do a "system restore", that is something I counteradvice: if there are parameters that are redundant, obsolete or troublesome, you might run into possible issues on the new firmware.

    accessing BI through VPN hosted on VPS

    Don't have android (anymore), but ain't there a "terminal" app in the OS itself where you can simply execute a "ping"? I now re-read your opening post: so if you'd open the VPN from your android to the VPS, do you call this "split tunnel"? And you are able to access BI webpage? But the BI app...

    accessing BI through VPN hosted on VPS

    So to summarize your use case @tv1: your BI server is throwing an outbound VPN connection to your VPS. That seems to work, right? What IP's are you getting (local, vpn-internal etc) Secondly, you throw out an outbound VPN connection from your mobile to your VPS. That seems to work too, right...

    Hitting cameras web pages with a laptop in an NVR with POE

    Okay, I fully understand your pain here. It's indeed a hit&miss feeling, but once my NVR was on v4 many issues (eg plugin required) disappeared. And if you bought it through @EMPIRETECANDY ), he can tell you for sure if your device is compatible (or not). That red triangle is new for me, so...

    Hitting cameras web pages with a laptop in an NVR with POE

    Sorry, I don't see a red triangle on your screenshot? I only see green tickboxes? Any reason you are not on v4 firmware?

    Hitting cameras web pages with a laptop in an NVR with POE

    @Mlda : I had a spare moment to login to my webinterface of the NVR. So on top left menu, you enter Camera, what do you get? Then you should get something like this: Can you show us what YOU get on these screens? Thanks! CC

    Hitting cameras web pages with a laptop in an NVR with POE

    That's strange, but parts of it I recognize: I cannot upgrade the camera through the IE icon (local forward) in the GUI of the camera itself. However, in the "next" tabpane of "camera registration" of the NVR's UI, I can upload camera firmwares through the NVR webservices towards the camera's...

    Dahua PTZ Stuttering in Live View and Playback

    What I would try to do: go into the webinterface of your camera itself (under Camera's - registration - IE icon and poof login): go into live view: does that stutter too? +1 on @SouthernYankee : fps of 30 is way over the top, especially with an iFrame of 60. Do the same on the substream...

    Password forgotten on IPC-HDW5231R-ZE on nvr

    What you could have tried is to keep the POE connection plugged in to the cam, but holding the reset button for 15-20 seconds, this will forcibly factory reset the camera, and the NVR pushes its password back into the camera. Good job on your quick fix! CC

    Can DMSS synch multiple cams during playback?

    For this "complex reviewing", I'm falling back on SmartPSS on PC.... On a phone it is incredible difficult to watch & deep inspect 2 screens.

    Dahua NVR virtual host not working to access attached POE cameras

    Too many actions but not the "good" one :-) My advice: delete the cams in that camera registration screen (trashcan), then when still connected to the NVR, open up the back of the camera and press (and hold) the reset button for 10-15 seconds. You'll hear the camera reboot but keep the reset...

    this may slow down the vandalism

    Well done! And this proofs to me that any camera should be covered in sight by another camera, at least to trigger "recording" when the other cam goes offline. And automatic skunk dispensers. Pew! :-)

    dahua NVR, how to record general at lower quality and movement at high?

    That's what I tried to explain in post #2 but that didn't seem to work well?

    SmartPSS wont open

    Yes. Have a look in @EMPIRETECANDY firmware repository here on IPCT if you bought your NVR through him. Good luck! CC

    SmartPSS wont open

    I can only say that SmartPSS on Windows works like a charm. Now, if your NVR is on firmware version 4, the webinterface looks 100x better than before, even for playback it has ample features much more faster than SmartPSS. Even more: I only use SmartPSS when I am too lazy :cool:

    dahua intercom vth1550ch and vto2000 (sounds is not working to inside)

    Hello Den Haag! If you have "tried out" too many settings, VTO & VTH loose their pedals. My advice: on your VTH, go into settings, note down the ip address and simply delete your VTO device. Then open your browser, enter the IP of the VTO and choose under system - factory reset. That reboots...

    Is ONVIF universally compatible?

    Well ONVIF Device Manager is a "smart" ONVIF search&find stream reader. Now you can analyse the specifications of that camera. If you now go into the settings of your NVR (add ONVIF camera), can you enter "specifics" (eg ports/paths) of that ONVIF Device Manager into the add-camera-window?

    Is ONVIF universally compatible?

    Short answer: no Long answer: maybe, ONVIF standard should be standard across vendors, however many vendors "extended" their ONVIF interpretations which makes interoperability difficult. Which turns out, in reality, that Dahua NVRs should stick to Dahua cameras, and Amcrest with Amcrest...

    New House - What Doorbell & Camera System

    Thanks for the flowers @nickmroz, but I'm not a doorbird expert. From what I found on my google-list, is that Doorbird does support SIP, which means, if your VTO's and VTH's are already on SIP, you might have a good shot to hook them up alltogether...

    VPN Primer for Noobs

    The thing is: OpenVPN can run nearly everywhere, the TPlinks/Asus/Netgears of this world who provide them OOTB with a OpenVPN server is great for (inexperienced) home users, however depending on your backend solutions (eg synology nas): these may host this OpenVPN Service too. If you employ a BI...

    OpenALPR on a Raspberry Pi 4 and the Jetson Nano

    NVR firmware update limits PoE ports speed to 10Mbps?

    If you work with a managed switch, you can put your cams in a separate vlan, whereas you only let your NVR communicate to the outer world. Ample options IMO, but like @SouthernYankee wrote, you might run quickly into internal bottlenecks of this 4XXXX series.
