    Yes, the flower basket has a turret style camera IR is active although I do not use it. I installed low output LED lights so that I have color video.

    My wife is very picky so I had to come up with a good way to place my backyard cameras! The Owl has a Wyze camera and the flower basket has a Dahua camera. From a distance the lenses are not too visible, but of course close-up it is obvious.

    How To Upgrade Amcrest / Lorex to Dahua Firmware And Get All Dahua Features

    You are correct! I did not have the correct password. The only thing that does not work is the Trip wire setup (IVS?). I can not find a way to enable it.

    I have a few Amcrest IP5M-T11179EW-28MM cameras and want to use them with my Dahua NVR302A-08/4KS2 (NVR4208-8P-4KS2) but the NVR does not recognize the Amcrest cameras. Can I install Dahua firmware so that the NVR does recognize the cameras? If so, what Dahue firmware should I use and where...

    Need help with Tripwire function setup

    Thanks for all the information. I have been playing with the Blue Iris application and have found it to be much easier to use than the Dahua NVR GUI. Also, I am now able to record the video from a couple of Wyze cameras configured with RTSP firmware. Too bad I bought the NVR already, but it...

    Need help with Tripwire function setup

    I have looked into Blue Iris. What do you recommend as far are using a PC powerful enough to handle 4 each 4mp cameras and 2 each 8mp cameras? Also, which camera is preferred for low light conditions: HDW-2431 or HDW-2831T (both fixed lens models)?

    My mistake. I found the event recording page, but now I see no way of deleting the recordings. I must say, the Dahua NVR GUI is not intuitive at all.

    Tried that, but still nothing. I am going to try connecting (with a long) directly to the NVR. Perhaps that will show what causes it. I will let you know tomorrow.

    Need help with Tripwire function setup

    If needed, I could disconnect the camerars from the NVR and do a factory reset, then connect thru a power injecter switch to my network. If this is the way to go then I will do it. When I reconnect to the NVR, do I first select Static DNS on the cameras so that the NVR can not assign a new IP...
