Thanks!

@Pete_Repeat thank you! Which ptz are you using? Also, what do you put in the =cameraname field of the url?

@EMPIRETECANDY That isn't my email or city, so I'll WhatsApp you. Looks like mixed up with another customer.

I ordered directly from Andy, not via another platform. I won't post our WhatsApp chat, but he told me he was going to send the numbers later and I never received. I'm sure it will be worked out as I've been ordering from Andy for years.

I'm confused though. My ticket number 112 was a 3rd place winner you listed on your post. What were my ticket numbers for my 3 purchased cameras? I only see 112 and 113 for my two purchased tickets.

Hi @EMPIRETECANDY I purchased three cameras direct from you, but I don't know what the ticket numbers were for those so I can compare against the winner list. EMTEC59095 Thanks again!

I have one camera that does not have a built in microphone. So I connected an external mic to the "Mic in" RCA jack on the back of my NVR (Dahua NVR5208-4KS2 from Andy). My problem is, how do I have that mic apply to the feed of the mic-less camera? I went to Camera/"Encode", then More, but I...

This is very helpful, I'll try tonight. Out of curiosity, why does iris being fully open cause issues?

I'm still working on dialing in my SD49425XB-HNR PTZ after a few years. I can't seem to find the balance between avoiding motion ghosting, avoiding too much noise, and being able to see a little bit of beyond the sidewalk. I have three pretty big IR projectors covering the width of the sidewalk...

@EMPIRETECANDY Good to discuss at HQ for your visit. Mine is still fast right now, but it is late at night and likely not a lot of US traffic.

@Data1 my ptz control is fast again as of right now on two different cameras. Same version of DMSS, so they must have fixed some connection issue. I still don't quite understand why it needs anything to go outside the network if I'm on my home local network. Like why does PTZ control need to...

@Data1 @EMPIRETECANDY had Dahua test it and said they were making some updates. Andy, any new information when you checked in with them on status yesterday?

@Data1 agreed, seems to be getting worse in DMSS and gdmss seems okay for me. Hopefully they fix this soon as my system is essentially useless right now for controlling via phone.

Yes, exactly my experience. I have a Samsung Galaxy S21, what phone do you have? I gave Dahua temporary guest access, but this is clearly a recent app change issue. Gdmss app is working perfectly, but it's old and has other issues. @EMPIRETECANDY FYI for your discussions with Dahua

@Damon Yep, restarts didn't help and I've been using CBR for years. Weird that this happened out of the blue with no changes at all with my setup. @EMPIRETECANDY is looking into it with Dahua since others are having the same issue per Google Play app reviews.

On the latest android DMSS version 1.99.0000, the playback loading became unusable without any changes at all to my home network or cameras. I uninstalled and installed 1.98.0002 and still had somewhat slow playback loading, so I uninstalled and installed 1.98.0000 and playback speed got a bit...

Thanks for testing! Tonight the shutter speed setting was not lost upon night schedule switch. I did click save a couple times and restarted and hit save a couple more times yesterday, so I'll keep an eye on whether that sticks for more than a few days. The randomness of some of these issues is...

So far mine switched back to day based on normal schedule and didn't lose the shutter range today, so we'll see when it switches to night (night has been the main issue of losing the setting and going back to 40ms). I'm guessing your test rig was also fine going back to day and 35ms as well?

Thanks! Day is set to shutter priority range 0 to 35ms. Most of my cameras I set to manual, but I seem to remember this one had an issue during certain morning or sunset hours with sun angle and I switched to the range. When I did the default before and after fw update, I did the first one that...

Same lost settings issue on my fixed focus 5442 after looking tonight. So both my varifocus and fixed 5442s are losing the shutter range settings. It seems to hold the setting even upon reboot, but my hypothesis is maybe upon scheduled night to day to night is loses it.

Correct, this bug of not holding the shutter speed range setting only happened after this latest firmware. I updated to this firmware to fix the random rebooting problem and now I have blurry night video unless I manually fix the shutter speed each day when the setting is lost. None of my...

I think I found a bug for my 5442 turret with the new firmware. I have set my night exposure to shutter priority customized range 0 to 25ms multiple times and it keeps resetting to 0 to 40ms (and of course at 40ms it is blurry video). I think it may be resetting upon switch from day to night...

@Wildcat_1 @78suited I just updated Chrome on my laptop and closed a ton of tabs, and it seems okay now. I also had it happen a few times on my Android Chrome browser last night, but not today. Odd, but seems like maybe CPU usage might cause the issue when it's struggling to stream. So far, no...

Anyone else seeing an issue with the new firmware where the preview video in browser (chrome or palemoon) reloads every 15 to 20 seconds? @Wildcat_1 you've spent a lot of time testing, so also curious on your thoughts. I tried on both fixed and variable zoom 5442s and both have this issue...

It is connected to a POE switch since the NVR isn't POE. But get this, I updated the NVR firmware and playing back the same car footage that had issues now works perfectly with no dropped frames or time. Must have just been a weird NVR firmware bug for playback. Strange, but all set now.

It only seems to happen certain times. Other times it works perfectly. When I watch on gDMSS android app it sees every frame of the exact same car, but watching on the NVR it's like a frame was corrupted and skipped.

Also very strange is I just watched on gdmss mobile app and it's NOT skipping those seconds/frames when playing from the same NVR.

I'm stumped. When I review playback on my NVR ( NVR5208-4KS2) for my LPR (IPC-B5442E-Z4E), I click next frame button one click at a time to see frame by frame and look at the license plates. I am playing back directly on the NVR with connected monitor, not via phone or PC app. The problem is...

I think I've heard that there is an ability to use a http url to switch to ptz presets? Any idea the correct full url and variables for that action? I'm thinking of having my local network zwave hub do a http post? curl? action upon a trigger (e.g., door sensor opened). SD59225U-HNI

Thanks! I may try regular motion detection tonight because I don't use any alerts, so false positives aren't a huge deal.
