    IPC-HFW5442E-ZE Factory Reset now NVR will not find the camera.

    Of course not. When you did a FR it reset the camera's IP address to the out-of-the-box default: 192.168.1.108.

    Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus

    I doubt simply changing the User-Agent would address the problem, as I suspect the problem is incompatibility between JavaScript, which is used by everything except IE, and JScript, which is used only by IE. JScript is highly compatible with JavaScript, but, since JScript is reverse-engineered...

    "Affordable" PTZ Starlight Cam?

    Hard pass Thanks again for the tips, everyone, but I'm done with this idea and will no longer be following this thread.

    Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus

    Not. Acceptable. Even if I had an MS-Win box upon which to run it: MS Internet Explorer was EOL'd on Nov. 30, 2020. Ah, well: I didn't really want to spend money on another surveillance cam right now, anyway. It's just that I got networking to the µBarn (a spur-of-the-moment project) and...

    "Affordable" PTZ Starlight Cam?

    I guess not: Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus That made for an easy decision.

    Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus

    Ah. Ok, thanks. I can stop reading the thread at page 32, then :( That's appalling. Dahua should line their software engineers up against a wall and hire at least marginally competent replacements

    Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus

    Has this been fixed? Is it possible to have all camera features, settings, etc. work properly using Firefox, Chrome, or a Chrome derivative (e.g.: Brave)? IE and Edge are out-of-the-question, being as I don't have an MS-Win machine.

    "Affordable" PTZ Starlight Cam?

    Thanks for the tip, @wittaj! Yeah, that one would certainly fill the bill, but it would be tough to get it by the family CFO :rofl:

    "Affordable" PTZ Starlight Cam?

    I'm wondering if Dahua makes a relatively capable PTZ camera that would give me capabilities similar to, say, a SD5A445XA-HN, that's more affordable? We have a large shed (or very small barn, depending upon one's perspective) about 100 ft. back of the SW corner of the house. The front of the...

    IPC-HDW5231R-ZE Rhea V2.800.0000016.0.R.200430 Latest new firmware

    So v13 is the most stable of what's been released to date?

    IPC-HDW5231R-ZE Rhea V2.800.0000016.0.R.200430 Latest new firmware

    Is v15 even more stable than 13? I believe Andy has taken v16 down. IIRC, he announced that a couple weeks ago or more?

    IPC-HDW5231R-ZE Rhea V2.800.0000016.0.R.200430 Latest new firmware

    My 4231 and 5231s all have 05. I've upgraded one 5231, when I started reading of people having spontaneous rebooting problems with theirs' with the 16 version, so I stopped upgrading. Now I know not what to do. I do have a copy of 13. Maybe I'll try upgrading one to that. The only problem I...

    Great :( I have one of those. Thanks for the follow-up. Do you recall what firmware version your had in it before 16?

    @EMPIRETECANDY: Will there be another firmware update for these cameras, or was 16 the last? Holding off updating the rest of my cameras as I had thought you'd written there'd be another update. Thanks!

    IPC-HDW5231R-ZE Rhea V2.800.0000016.0.R.200430 Latest new firmware

    I've only installed it on one, so far, and it has not given me any problems, either. But now I'm reluctant to install it anywhere else. The rest of my cameras are running V2.800.0000005.0.R, Build Date: 2019-03-25. Other than occasionally rebooting since I added tripwire/intrusion to them...

    If we're talking about bugs in V2.800.0000016.0.R.200605: When I upgraded one of my 5231's (the only one so far) I did this: Saved running configuration Cleared camera to defaults "except network IP address, user management and so on" Installed upgrade Uploaded saved configuration Upon Step 4...

    Those download links get posted in a really weird manner. I don't understand why he does it that way. You have to download the MS-Word doc, open it, then open the link from there--IIRC.

    IPC-HDW5231R-ZE Rhea V2.800.0000016.0.R.200430 Latest new firmware

    I had cameras spontaneously going off-line. Since it was all of them I assumed it was a common denominator: Either the NVR or the PoE switch. I eliminated the NVR as being the problem. Replaced the switch. Problems continued. Then it hit me: These problems started about the time I started...

    Is there a Blue Iris equivalent for Linux?

    Yeah... about that. I don't know about these days, but, once-upon-a-time everything running on MS-Windows insisted on installing itself with Administrator rights. This used to be one of my many concerns about the OS. To be clear: That wasn't Microsoft's fault, but that of the applications'...

    Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE's Going Off-Line

    Well, so far it's looking like my suspicion, that's it's a firmware bug, may have been correct. The camera I upgraded last Sunday has not gone off-line since, and it had been the camera that had been going off-line most frequently. Not certain, yet, because there were times of up to a week or...

    Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE's Going Off-Line

    Yes, I know, @looney2ns. I'm hopeful it was, as I suspected, a firmware bug. As I noted in my OP: The only recent change was beginning to use IVS. Coincidentally, it was only the IVS config that failed to restore when I reloaded the config after the update. If this update stops the problem...

    Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE's Going Off-Line

    sigh So the firmware upgrade went w/o issue, but the verkakte thing won't reload the configuration backup I saved, even after a second, manual reboot. So now I have to re-configure everything from scratch This is special: It restored part of the configuration, but not all of it In fact...

    Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE's Going Off-Line

    BTDT, @sebastiantombs :) What I'd more likely do is swap a camera that isn't exhibiting the problem with one that is. They are physically identical, it's just that the re-labeled Dahua doesn't have sound and a couple other features (I don't use) that the 5231's do have.

    Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE's Going Off-Line

    Thanks for the follow-up, @looney2ns. Water intrusion is so unlikely in this case that I'm confident that is surely not the case. All three are mounted directly under deep soffits, well back from the edge. New roof three summers ago, with high-tech Mylar "felt", plus snow & ice shield going...

    Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE's Going Off-Line

    Thanks for the followup. Wasn't looking for troubleshooting help, but more wondering if anybody else had experienced anything like this. The network switch has been replaced with an entirely different model from an entirely different manufacturer--power supply and all. In the process, of...

    Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE's Going Off-Line

    I guess nobody's got any ideas, so I guess I'll just update one of the guilty parties to 16, and see what happens. Wish me luck.

    Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE's Going Off-Line

    For a couple months or more I've had a problem with my Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE cams going briefly off-line for a minute to a minute-and-a-half on an irregular, but fairly frequent basis. Having eliminated the NAS and Surveillance Station software running upon it as the culprit, I assumed it was...
