    Surveillance Station can´t find my Dahua cams

    I have been using a Dahua NVR for years but recently purchased a Synology NAS. I can´t seem to get Surveillance Station to find the Dahua cameras using the IP Cam Wizard. Everything including the NAS and cameras are plugged into an umanaged POE switch. My Dahua PTZ power ups just fine and I...

    How to view Dahua cameras without browser plugins

    Based on the advice from someone on this forum I started using Pale Moon. It works great.

    I agree! I have three of these and the autotracking and autozoom is well worth the price over fixed cameras.

    Thanks -- that exactly how I usually access the cameras. My problem with this is that Dahua has configuration parameters stored in the camera, not in the NVR. Totally bad architecture.

    Thanks for the Pale Moon suggestion. It worked like a charm! I am still concerned about Dahau's crappy support of modern browsers for their cameras. On a related note, why doesnt Dahua's NVR allowed me to access ALL setttings in my SD49225XA. It seems ridiculous that have to use a...

    How to view Dahua cameras without browser plugins

    Where is everyone getting IE 10 to connect to their cameras? I tried the IE settings in Edge but it is only working on my dome cameras, not my PTZs.

    Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus

    I just tried this and am getting inconsistent results with some cameras opening ok and others not. I am totally frustrated with Dahau right now and this insane "IE Only" interface. It wouldnt bother me if I could get to all my camera settings from my Dahau NVR but there appears to be some...

    Dahua - is there a proven security back door on these?

    Excellent list! And I agree its hard to see these vulnerabilities as intentional or some sort of government conspiracy.

    Dahua - is there a proven security back door on these?

    I tend to ignore the hysteria about the evil Chinese. As an electrical engineer I want to see the proof, otherwise this is nothing but political bs. Now of course there could be errors and bugs, but my understanding is the so called security issue is embedded in silicon. So where is this...

    Dahua - is there a proven security back door on these?

    So my company has to periodically certify that we don't use Hikvision or Dahua with our government contracts. I am sure this topic has been covered before and my search was getting too many results. So is there really a back door on these cameras? Seems like a lot of this concern is just...

    Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus

    I fixed the "Invalid Preset" problem I was having. Under Video Detection/Motion Detection there is a new setting for a PTZ that allows you to select a preset after motion detection. Somehow I had checked this box and it defaults to preset 1 (which I didn't have setup). Every motion detection...

    Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus

    One annoying thing is I keep getting this random "Preset Invalid" message. I only have one preset. I searched and this seems to be a problem but I didn't find an exact way to fix this

    Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus

    I just ordered a second SD49225XA from Andy (via AliExpress). The firmware in the one I have installed is from March 2020, so frankly I was surprised I could get Auto Tracking to work.

    Review - Dahua SD49225XA-HNR 2MP 25x Starlight + IR PTZ AI Camera with Deep IVS & SMD Plus

    I just got my first PTZ from Andy. It took me awhile but I finally have it working nicely -- I think. I have various Trip Lines set up and have the Alarm tracking time set to 300 seconds. It works perfectly and follows me around the yard. Since I am a newbie with PTZs, what exactly is the...
