Wondering if anyone knows how to trigger Alarm bell & Dual-light flash on the Dahua perimeter protection cameras via http API?

Considering they ~same price, why would I even look for anything else BUT dahua at that point? :)

I need 5 so ... that's 2000$++ :)

Loryta and EmpireTech are both similar in price to Dahua, so.. not something I'm interested in

The idea is to get a few cameras that won't "break the bank", considering the prices of the Dahua-branded PTZs....

Hey guys, Does anyone know a good off-brand PTZ camera that's compatible with Dahua NVRs? By compatible I mean Zoom in/out, Patrol, Follow, Presets, Alarms, Triggers, etc... Regards

Turns out I forgot to set the DST settings on the NVR... stupid mistake. I had the cameras before I purchased the NVR, so they had DST settings properly set-up, and were displaying the correct time on live view.

A day or so ago SmartPSS started showing "WindowX has no record!" message when I try to start Instant Playback on any of the live channels. Has anyone encountered such a problem? NVR is DHI-NVR5216-4KS2

Wondering if I should upgrade my DHI-NVR5216-4KS2, currently running V4.002.0000000.3.R, latest available is V4.002.0000000.6.R.221115.bin - do you guys have any issues with it, or, is it safe to upgrade?

Hey guys, I have the following cameras: 2x Dahua 4k HDW3549H-AS-PV-2080B 2x Dahua 4k HFW3549T1-AS-PV-2080B 2x Hikvision 1080p cameras (that I plan to connect to a Dahua NVR via onvif). Possibly 1 more HFW3549T1 in the future, but not 100% The question is - from what I understand reading the...

Hey guys.. Does anyone know how to disable all recordings in SmartPSS? Tried removing the pc-nvr however.. something still fills my HDD and have to periodically delete everything in C:/Users/Public/SmartPSS/Record which is super annoying If someone knows how to force SmartPSS to not record the...

Update firmware .... if there is one :) Dahua seem too lazy on the matter.

It did show up on one of them at least, but for some reason when I try to start the cameras, I get "Please log in first.", even tho I'm logged into the web interface ..... Any ideas?

Yes, no "Channel 0" .... there's again "View 1/4/whatever" but no Channel zero.. Most likely they've removed this on some NVRs ....

So, on some NVRs there's no channel 0 ?

That's not it. On my NVR these buttons are on the left, the one you point to says "View 1", the one next to it "View 4". I'm talking about Channel "Zero" - i.e. streaming all cameras as a single stream. Perhaps you're not familiar with what I'm talking about?

Hey guys, On the old web UIs there was option to enable channel zero, which as you know reduces the overall bandwidth required to view all the cameras at once. On the new UI (NVR 4.0) doesn't even mention the existence of channel 0. Does anyone know how to enable it? Is it even possible to do...

During the day is okay, now testing the night settings.

Adjusted the settings, will test in a day or two (I'm not at the location atm)

Here are 2 recent "Day" images:

The "Day" images are already available, I'll post the night time (with the LED on) Profile: Schedule Day: 07:00 - 18:00 Night - the rest Picture: - Day: -- Brightness 50% -- Contrast 58% -- Saturation: 44% -- Sharpness: 50% -- Gamma: 50% -Night: -- Brightness 50% -- Contrast 51% --...

Any tricks on how to improve the night-time performance? I'm barely getting any IVS detection. The cameras are: Device Type IPC-HFW3549T1-AS-PV-0280B System Version V2.820.0000000.5.R, Build Date: 2021-07-05 What's the correct installation height for these? Tried adding an external LED...

I'm talking about the rule(s) lines. They don't show up 99.999% of the time, even on expanded window. Is this a bug or something that's just always been like that? Is there any other way (or other software) to display the feed including the rules (other than watching it directly on the camera)?

So, I improved the detection during the day a little, but it still struggles during the night. Also, any ideas why IVS rules/detection show only some times in SmartPSS ? Anyone got success in making them appear every time ?

What about the max size? Is it okay to leave it as default (8191 * 8191), or should it be adjusted to something a bit larger than an average person as displayed on the camera's image?

Do min/max size have any positive effect on "target filter: human" ? I've set some values, which makes the camera recognize a walking raven as human :)

Does color overlay affect IVS in any way? There are several white columns in front of the camera, I'm covering them in black.

Okay so the Backlight is set to SSA not WDR. Does this affect IVS performance ?

Thanks for the input guys, I'll try tomorrow and let you know.

Hello, I'm trying to make appropriate rules to catch intruders on several angles, however, some rules work half the time, other don't even catch movement. All rules have: "target filter" "human" "min size" - not set (0) (I've tried setting min size to a small square but no luck..) "max size" -...
