    Switch Dahua Day/Night Profile via IPC HTTP API

    Have a look at my post up this page. The videooptions[channel] is the nvr command as that’s what I use (4104p)

    Just Got It. Plug it Into Ethernet?

    If you look for a 12v ac adapter, about 1a, with the right sized dc barrel and use the lan tail for lan, and dc tail for power, the camera should go enough for you to play with.

    How to handle DST changes on multiple cameras?

    Yeah different nvr/camera brands would be a pain especially if different api calls.

    How to handle DST changes on multiple cameras?

    With my Dahuas (who I block from accessing the internet - and the nvr), I use a script that sets the current time on each channel. SET_TIME = 'http://{0}/cgi-bin/global.cgi?action=setCurrentTime&time={1}'

    Returned camera - they can do English any more

    So I had a camera that’s gone back as it would respond to ping but nothing else. The shop tells me the don’t have the English firmware for it. So my questions are. Behind an nvr will I notice? If the nvr is controlling anything will it affect me? Method for updating firmware, or at a...

    Semi Driver vs Power Lines

    Ahh ok, but for why? So you have a list of all cars that passed in case something happens? Just curious is all.

    Semi Driver vs Power Lines

    What's that camera capturing in that location? ie what need is it filling? Looking down the street, or is there are behaviour it was put in for?

    Trigger alert through HTTP

    Probably needs digest authorisation rather than basic. How will you be calling that command? Curl, wget?

    Switch Dahua Day/Night Profile via IPC HTTP API

    I think it's the same GET_URL = 'http://{0}/cgi-bin/configManager.cgi?action=getConfig&name=VideoInOptions[{1}].NightOptions' But instead of only being one night option, there's 1 per channel.

    On a browser take out the user/password parts and see if it works manually.

    What's the best cloud backup for Blue Iris Alert images?

    I use google photos. Yes its slow, but great for going back through. Depends on your purpose. If you want immediate review, it's the wrong tool, but a long term storage and review site it's perfect (IMO).

    Dahua HDBW4421 - pings for a bit then seems to restart

    Thanks anyway. I'll have to see if I can fudge that account for the upgrade process.

    yeah, it was off for a couple of days and I've tried each day to reset it/play with it.

    Dahua HDBW4421 - pings for a bit then seems to restart

    Gould thought. But alas no. Same response. No account found. I get no lights when either pressing the reset button, or holding it for an extended period.

    Dahua HDBW4421 - pings for a bit then seems to restart

    Yeah so I tried admin/admin and when i look at the telnet connected console I see the following: Can't Open /mnt/mtd/Config/passwd Can't Open /mnt/mtd/Config/Account1, will use system password Account not exists. For some reason it's like the reset hasn't worked properly, and it hasn't...

    Dahua HDBW4421 - pings for a bit then seems to restart

    What credentials will it accept? I've tried the telnet user name (root). And when i try Admin/admin in the console log I see it talking about mnt/Mtd/config/passd not found and account not found. Looks like I need to get an account made in there somehow as it hasn't got to that state as part...

    Dahua HDBW4421 - pings for a bit then seems to restart

    The resets don't seem to be working for me, and I'm not really sure I want to play with serial cables, but I guess I will if I have to. Can I use this procedure? Dahua Firmware Mod Kit + Modded Dahua Firmware I'm getting into telnet ok (root/vizxv). And this upgraded seems to do soemthing...

    Dahua HDBW4421 - pings for a bit then seems to restart

    Any other options? I've pulled it down, connected a laptop on 192.168.1. Config tool can't see it, camera responds in 192.168.1.108. Sometime it starts failing to ping then recovers. No web site is accessible. Are there any telnet options I've tried reset button for 5 secs, longer. No...

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

    Ahh on, so that's why if I try the NVR address and a port directly it didn't work. But I tried the camera link and it just passed me to the cameras IP address, even though it's on the cameras subnet. It has to be something to do with me fixing the IP addresses of the cameras on the NVR...

    Dahua 4104p Snapshot url

    I've tried a bunch of the snap shot urls /cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi, /cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi/chn=1 /cgi-bin/snapshot.cgi/channel=1 from ispyconnect site, but cannot get the link for my nvr. Anyone have any pointers?

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

    This doesn't seem to work as advertised on my 4104p. I see the link, but when I click on the E link to go to the camera, it sends me to the internal ip address of the camera - internal from the NVR point of view. So my NVR is connected as 192.168.10.64, the internal lan of the nvr is...

    Dahua HDBW4421 - pings for a bit then seems to restart

    So on this one, the reset button is a small unmarked button near the sd card? I pressed it, for a good 60! econds and it seems to have reset it's ip back to 192.168.1.108 This one is behind a dahua nvr. But whenever I go looking for it, I can never find it. The lan side of the nvr is...

    Dahua HDBW4421 - pings for a bit then seems to restart

    I've got a camera that up until yesterday seemed to be going, but now I see it not responding. Its behind an NVR, so if I hook my laptop up to the nvr and put myself on the same subnet I can see the camera pinging for a bit, then it seem to stop. A couple of times I managed to telnet on to it...

    ISP changed my external IP on me. How to have BI notify me when that happens?

    noip is free, and generally most routers can update it for up. Effort is minimal IMO.

    Dahua 4104-p Upgraded firmware, can I get IVS

    I upgraded the firmware of my 4104 successfull. Putting down DH_NVR4xxx_Eng_P_V3.203.0000.0.R.20170612.bin Can I get IVS for the two cameras I have that support it? Trip wires seem to be a much better idea that motion detection.

    Dahua api auth? What's wrong?

    Some of the cameras have gone digest authentication rather than basic nowadays. This could be your option depending how you're accessing the API
