    New version of Smart PSS

    fyi new version of SmartPSS will allow you to download as .mp4 even if your older firmware does not have it supported. My NVR5216-16p-4ks2E is still on old firmware: 3.215.0000000.3, Build Date: 2017-12-11 and I can download as mp4 with SmartPSS.

    Review-Dahua IPC-K35A 3mp Cube Camera

    I just got it for $79 fast shipping to US vs. $68 slow 3-4 week shipping. It works well and is my first 2 way talk camera. I do wish it had a slimmer mount as it sticks out on my vertical wall it’s mounted to. If you plan to keep it on a table the mount works real well.

    New version of Smart PSS

    The new version appears (upon very quick inspection) to show my entire timeline for all my cameras on all days for all events.

    New iDMSS Plus ver 4.70.000 8/22/2019

    Really? They still can't get it right? It's been messed up since May. I was hoping this update would have fixed these issues.

    TinyCam Pro w/ 2019 Amazon Fire 7 and IPC-HFW5231E-Z & HDW5231R-Z

    The last picture I think you can select sub stream if you choose. I might be slightly different than you because I point each camera to my NVR IP address and then in advanced settings change the channel in the url it finds from channels 1-7 (I have 7 cameras).

    TinyCam Pro w/ 2019 Amazon Fire 7 and IPC-HFW5231E-Z & HDW5231R-Z

    I have no problem on my Fire 7 using TinyCam Pro with Dahua Cams. Are you using a Dahua NVR or Blue Iris? I use a Dahua NVR and can walk you through the settings if you're using one.

    120 volt IR light mounted next to my garage sensor light?

    Hi, I’m hoping someone out there is aware of a product. Above my garage like most, I have an outdoor motion sensor light connected via 120 volts in a junction box. I’m hoping to mount an IR light / Illuminator of some sort by popping the side cover out of the junction box and running a 2-3”...

    Newest iDMSS app 4.40.000 is borken

    I wonder why the connections defaulted to 5 on your newer firmware. I just checked my NVR firmware 3.215.0000000.3, Build Date: 2017-12-11 and under Network ----> Port (I don't have Connections) it shows 128 as default already.

    Dahua NVR - Wireless Mouse

    I have a wireless mouse plugged into the USB port on my NVR in my basement. I use it to navigate my OSD on my television in my living room where I ran a 50 foot HDMI wire to. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001DHECXA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Big update!! NVR5XXX-4KS2_MultiLang_V4.000.0000000.0.R.20190713

    Did you have to "initialize" the cameras at all? I'm asking because I have: NVR5216-16p-4ks2E on firmware 3.215.0000000.3, Build Date: 2017-12-11 HDW5231R-Z cameras on 2.622.0000000.18.R, Build Date: 2017-11-10 HDW5231R-ZE cameras on 2.460.0000.15.R, Build Date: 2017-09-07 I have never...

    email notify

    I’ve found that whenever the app is updated I won’t get alerts until I have restarted the NVR. I don’t recall whether I had to resubscribe after the restart.

    email notify

    Same question here although I think that once the NVR is updated there will be no need to update the cameras themselves if you're just looking to get the email functioning again. Either way I don't see it as that big of an inconvenience - you don't have to take the cameras down to update them...

    tool head broke off in set screw of Starlight Housing

    Try a thick rubber band between the tool and what’s left in the set screw. Apply pressure and you may be pleasantly surprised when it backs it out of the screw.

    5231R-ZE poor image at night!

    Your stills look awesome. I’d be super excited if I could get mine to look like that.

    IPC-HDW4831EM-ASE stops recording every day, overwrite not working??

    A few questions. 1. What version of SmartPss are you using? The newest one has an known issue. Go back to 2.002.0000007.0 and see if your video is there. 2. Have you tried logging into the WebGui using PaleMoom browser (32 bit) and checked for the video? I think you’ll be pleasantly...

    email notify

    I’m not sure how I can do that. I’m open to trying if there’s a way but I’m using a Dahua 5216 NVR and I’m pretty sure I don’t have the hardware required to check. My switch is unmanaged.

    email notify

    Agreed. New gmail account didn’t work even when trying 2 step and generate app specific pw ( Dahua documentation says this won’t work anyway) but either did less secure method. Used my web server account for my website without a problem. My problem began one day I had a contractor working...

    You know what? Mine is no longer working either since Friday night. Two days ago. Strange. I’m gonna get a new account.

    email notify

    Could you temporarily setup a new gmail account and try with the new one? Maybe google didn’t like the amount of emails and blocked your account from smtp access?

    Gmail use TLS on port 587. Allow less secure apps. It seems gmail changed this recently.

    Cannot use SMTP on my Dahua IPC-HDBW4331R-as

    Did this stop on May 1st? I had the same thing happen to me. Switched to TLS on 587 and back up and running.

    Dahua - Several newbie questions please - IVS/SmartPSS, iDMSS and SMTP.

    fyi strangely I just noticed my NVR would no longer send emails (and has not been sending since May 1st). I just had to change my encryption to TLS and the port to 587 to make it work. Prior to May 1st I had no issues using SSL on port 465. I find it highly coincidental that I had workers at...

    SmartPSS not showing entire day but WebGui is? What's up?

    You know what? I just used my laptop which is still on SmartPSS 2.02 and it shows the entire day. When I use my desktop on SmartPSS v2.002.0000007.0 I do not see the entire day. Looks like there is a bug with the update - great catch @tigerwillow1 - maybe Andy can submit a bug to Dahua...

    SmartPSS not showing entire day but WebGui is? What's up?

    Thanks for the reply. Yes I believe it's the same date because I can see the same video on each screen up until the video doesn't exist on SmartPSS. Strange man....

    SmartPSS not showing entire day but WebGui is? What's up?

    Hi, I have 7 Dahua 5231 cameras connected to a Dahua NVR set to record 24/7 Recently when I tried to pull up a stream on SmartPSS I was missing part of the day but when I use Pale Moon to login to the NVR directly and go to the playback tab my entire day is there (as I would expect it to be)...

    SmartPSS and Dahua NVR and 4K IP-Cam

    I’m sure others will chime in but in the meantime I’d try to drop the resolution first and see if anything changes. If no change I’d try disabling smart codec but I think dropping the resolution down might stop it. Perhaps your computer can’t handle 4 steams with that high resolution.
