    Dahua NVR5xxx-4K new firmware changes in NVR5XXX-4K_Eng_V3.210.0003.0.R.20170418

    FWIW, I updated to version 20170418 on my 5232-4KS2 yesterday, and playback is much smoother.

    I messed up...

    Deleted and reinstalled ConfigTool, then started a new IE window, typed in the NVR IP address, and got message saying windows was blocking the access, told it to allow access, and voila! Everything works, all settings were saved, and it works like before with new version installed. Whew! Think...

    I messed up...

    Can now access nvr from configtool, but most menu setting changes I try to input are not accepted. Network settings can't be changed, and hard drive, cams not recognized in web service. All settings, cams, etc. seem to be ok using native os, but not sure what setting to allow IE web service to...

    I messed up...

    Ok, I tried to upgrade firmware on my 5232 4k to the 20170418 firmware using the upgrade control in the nvr setup. I wanted to see if it would correct my skipped frames problem. However, after reboot the nvr is not accessible using the configtool, but is accessible using the IP address of the...

    Dahua IPC-HDBW4431R-ZS - Buy Log / Review

    I have 4 of these cameras, a 5232 NVR, and an AT&T RG cascaded to a Nighthawk R7000 router. The Nighthawk router handles all of my devices, with addresses 10.0.0.XX. When I hook up a new cam, using ConfigTool, I give the cam an available 10.0.0.xx IP address, and then immediately go into the...

    Strange things after NVR began to overwrite HDD

    Acccording to Nayr, the NVR setting that causes the NVR to set the time for the cams is: Setup>System>General>IPC Time Sync (check box). And for what it's worth, the Amcrest cams don't have any problems either way-it's the Dahuas.

    Strange things after NVR began to overwrite HDD

    Had time differences before, and yes it can be difficult. Some of my cams won't work correctly with DST enabled, some only work with DST enabled, etc. But lately, they had been working ok and holding time steady. I would rather just have NVR control time for all, but was never able to get them...

    Strange things after NVR began to overwrite HDD

    I have a 3TB WD Purple in my NVR 5232 4Ks2, and 6 cameras, 4 Dahua HDBW4431r-ZS and 2 Amcrest cams, all set to record MD, no IVS. Seemed ok until the WD filled up and began to overwrite. Now recordings have timestamps that randomlyjump time back and forth by one hour during playback, and...

    Dahua camera is ONVIF?

    In the NVR menu setup>Image>Remote Device> choose a camera and click on Modify>change manufacturer name to Private, click on Connect button, then OK. This should change it to Private, if the cams are Dahuas. My cams will operate as Private or ONVIF, and I don't really see any difference in...

    NVR Camera Channel Assignments

    In the NVR, according to the order you have them configured in Setup>Image>Remote Device. Add them one-at-a-time to get them in the order you want.

    Dahua NVR motion triggering simultaneous recording on all channels

    The fix for my lack of MD on one channel was to return NVR to factory defaults, and then, with no cameras added yet, was able to access motion detect for all channels on nvr, and made sure each channel was set to record only that channel. Then when I added my cameras back, all were able to get...

    Dahua NVR motion triggering simultaneous recording on all channels

    Continuous record doesn't fix it but just proves the nvr can record from the camera. Now to try to fix MD. Will let you know tomorrow-thanks again.

    Dahua NVR motion triggering simultaneous recording on all channels

    Ok, just went in to nvr and the camera and turned both to continuous record and that works... so must be a problem with my motion detection setting, whether in the camera or nvr, I can't figure out.

    Dahua NVR motion triggering simultaneous recording on all channels

    Camera live picture is viewable in nvr. Cannot go to "video detect">"record channel" in nvr because the screen as shown in your screen shot says "channel 6 cannot get configuration" Therefore don't know if the nvr "record channel" is correct, because features are grayed out. Hope you can follow...

    Dahua NVR motion triggering simultaneous recording on all channels

    Yes, both in nvr for channel 6 and on the camera. Both set for motion (yellow bars for every day).

    Dahua NVR motion triggering simultaneous recording on all channels

    Well, I guess I messed something up...thought I had my video detect record channel situation all fixed up but now channel 6 can't get configuration, and has quit recording, so I can't check record channel in nvr for that camera? Channel 6 camera shows in nvr live view, camera settings set to...

    Dahua NVR motion triggering simultaneous recording on all channels

    I'm really glad I saw this thread. After adding a new camera to my NVR5232-4KS2, I was getting the same problem. Thank you, Fastb, for the screen shot showing where the problem might be. Sure enough, I had clicked ALL on one channel and thus it was recording to all channels. It's been windy...

    A couple of questions on my Dahua NVR (HDD installation, fan noise )

    Or use a L.N.A. (low noise adapter) on the fan. Noctua makes some, and probably others. That's what I used on my NVR5232-SKS, and it quietened it down a lot, but still cools.

    POE switch

    You really should consider an 8-port PoE switch. I bought a decent one on Amazon, and I have the very NVR of which you speak. I have 5 cams, with one more to be added this week. All is working well. My PoE switch is in the attic, and so I needed only one ethernet drop to the router. Your NVR...

    Where is the best place to buy Dahua NVR5216-4KS2?

    Shenzhen Kingstar International Trade Co., Ltd. on Aliexpress. Just bought that very NVR, including DHL shipping for $252. Requested and received a Paypal invoice, and paid by Paypal. Very smooth, 6-day delivery. YMMV.

    Failed Aliexpress Transaction?

    Yeah, almost the same, but my NVR doesn't have PoE ports. I use a PoE switch in the attic, and so only had one ethernet run to the attic. Hope you get yours soon. DHL seems like the way to go.

    Failed Aliexpress Transaction?

    OK, glennd, I said I would report back about my Aliexpress purchase, and I received it yesterday, as scheduled by DHL. It was delivered about 4:30 pm. And instead of the 16 channel model, they sent the 32 channel model-NVR5232-4KS! Not complaining, and it works great, although I had to tweak the...

    Failed Aliexpress Transaction?

    My funds cleared my bank yesterday, and I messaged to seller. Seller has replied "will ship fast". I asked for tracking number. We will see. In the meantime, I have ordered a Paypal MasterCard prepaid debit card, which I can load at my local HEB grocery for no fee, and I will use that next...
