    Alerts driving me insane

    Here's the steps I just tried to resolve my issues. Tips from previous posts in this thread, ran repair/regenerate, deleted the camera, imported settings from a working camera and now all is well. I have to tweak some motion detection settings to limit useless triggers but otherwise the issues...

    Alerts driving me insane

    The HDD that died was the os drive with BI on it. I replaced it with an SSD and installed BI on it again. I run a purple drive for all storage needs. The funny thing is, any time motion triggered, the same timestamped image/clip would be pushed and notified to our phones but it was a repeat...

    Alerts driving me insane

    I guess that isn't only my problem, the notifications are the same as you can see by the timestamps.

    Settings for continuous recording

    I installed a new WD purple 2tb to record continuously. (1 cam currently). I have it setup but more than likely incorrectly, as the new drive (New_S) is barely being used. I have attached screenshots of the settings I currently have in place. What kind of folders should I add to the WD purple...

    New camera, unable to access

    Great note for next time. I never used the config tool with my other dahuas so I had no clue what I was doing other than initializing the camera. I resetted via @biggen recommendation and now it's all good. Thank you all.

    New camera, unable to access

    I got to the login screen for the camera but the default. Username (admin) and password (admin) do not work. I sent a message to the seller and may just return it if i can't get into the camera .

    New camera, unable to access

    Looking at my old threads on this forum, i ran across this reply from Philip Gonzalez which worked for me last time: You may be able to change the IP address of these cams with the Dahua Config Tool, but I haven't had much luck or patience trying that method. The easiest way for me to change...

    New camera, unable to access

    What would be the safest way to do this? I read a guide on it but I'm unsure whether using the blue iris pc is a safe bet. I'd hate to screw up what i already have running.

    New camera, unable to access

    Hello, I bought an additional camera, the HDW4433. I downloaded the toolbox and initialized the camera, however i cannot access the camera in any way, not even the admin panel. The only thing i can come up with is the gateway is different (192.168.0 vs 192.168.1) . Upon trying the modify ip...

    Core 2 Duo died, rate these replacements

    Reinstalling Windows, I'm just simply going to reset this PC under system settings correct? I believe I read windows 10 is tied to the PC already so no Windows key is needed. Sent from my SM-G950U1 using Tapatalk

    Core 2 Duo died, rate these replacements

    Yeah I thought giving reason and using the other unit as an example ($199+$30ship) they'd bite but I guess not. I'll keep an eye out, I just wanted to make sure I was looking in to right place for the right product. Sent from my SM-G950U1 using Tapatalk

    Changed ISP, broke cameras in BI

    I got this figured out. About a week ago my ISP turned on ipv6, I had to disable ipv6 on the bi machine to get my ipv4 address back. Also had to reopen/forward my port. All is back to normal.

    Changed ISP, broke cameras in BI

    Well, something happened and my remote viewing has broken. I checked what is my IP on the machine and it's giving me an ipv6 address instead of the ipv4. It also broke chrome remote desktop. Any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

    Changed ISP, broke cameras in BI

    Thanks again! I took a break from this last night, but I did just setup the webserver without issues. Two things I'm curious about, can I set an auto logout (timeout?) for the BI Android app? Maybe there is one already but I noticed while testing, if I just hit home the BI server still shows...

    Changed ISP, broke cameras in BI

    I was able to get the indoor amcrest camera so show back up in BI, but my 2 exterior Dahua cams are still gone. Here's a view of my amcrest ip finder and the BI page that I got it working with. I attempted to ping those IPs but there's no response from them.
