    Bricked HDBW4421. Fixed firmware doesn't start (loops)

    I have the same camera and I'm also facing an issue where I also need to reflash the firmware ( Corvet35 or Chinese original). Unfortunately the link from Corvet35s thread isn't working. Can anyone provide this firmware file? Thanks in advance!

    Dahua Firmware Mod Kit + Modded Dahua Firmware

    Does anyone still have the above firmware for IPC-HX4X2X-Themis (the link isn't working for me)? My camera stopped working suddenly but does have port 23 and 3800 available, so I want to try a reflash.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Cool to know the db1 can work simultaneously with the mechanical AND wireless chime. Now the question is: which wireless chime is recommended? (The official ezviz chime...or a third party wireless chime)

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I have the db1 running for exactly one year in combination with a mechanical chime (using the power kit) just fine. Recently I've been looking at the wireless ezviz chime so I can have another chime on the second floor (the mechanical chime isn't that loud). My question: can the db1 work...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I purchased an ezvid db1 end of November (2 months ago) and got it working fine with the power kit and my existing mechanical chime. This week though I noticed the db1 is not always triggering the chime consistently anymore (but luckily it is always triggering the phone ring. Notifications also...

    Thank you for this great info! This explains how to enable/disable a certain rule by http api. Do you also know how to enable/disable the whole ivs feature on the camera by http api? (Instead of per rule)

    Dahua 4mp, 6mm turrets (IPC-HDW4421C)

    For the people who are using these (unmodified) chinese firmwares: How are you using the camera settings as I assume they are all in Chinese language? Or are you all able to read chinese? :)

    Dahua Web plugin has stopped working in Firefox

    I couldn't get the dahua cam webpage working with the latest ESR version (version 52) aswell (I got the exact same behaviour as GaryOkie). In the end I just installed an older ESR version (from Directory Listing: /pub/firefox/releases/ ) and disabled automatic updates. The dahua page is working...

    How to view Dahua cameras with SmartPhone

    Ofcourse, the blue iris functionality in tinycam was for live viewing only right?

    How to view Dahua cameras with SmartPhone

    Does push notifications on gDMSS (eg tripwire/IVS) also work with pc-nvr (bundled with smartpss)? Unfortunately tinycam cannot do this with dahua nvr (it does support blue iris playback i believe).

    software to view all my cameras in grid

    VLC seems to have a mosaic plugin to show multiple streams in a grid. I believe this is the perfect solution if you only want a viewer application and don't want to install big programs that come with unwanted functionalities such as recording, cam configurations etc Check out: RTSP mosaic...

    Dahua 4mp, 6mm turrets (IPC-HDW4421C)

    My camera did revert to Chinese after the firmware flash (in the Chrome browser. Strangely not in IE). I believe this was because I reverted my settings to default. After changing the language setting (in the general section) to English (the second entry, strangely there were two English entries...

    SmartPSS 2.001 keeps rebooting my cameras

    I went ahead and flashed cor35vets modified firmware for THEMIS and as I hoped, the crashes with SmartPSS 2 were solved! So if anyone has the problem of camera reboots/crashes in combination with the new smartPSS/PC-NVR,...give the new firmware a try as it solved my problem.

    Calling all modders: Custom D&N Sensitivity

    Most Dahua cams have the ability to automatically change between color mode and infrared based on the setting 'D&N sensitivity'. If you are unfamiliar with this, then see the excerpt from dahuawiki below. When I put D&N on auto with the sensitivity on low, my 4421c camera switches to infrared...

    Dahua Firmware Mod Kit + Modded Dahua Firmware

    I just flashed DH_IPC-HX4X2X-Themis.bin on my 4421c and I can confirm that it works! Thank you cor35vet!!! I just did a restore of default settings and then flashed the firmware through the WebUI. One minor detail is that the language after the flash was initially on Chinese (in Chrome, but not...

    Dahua 4mp, 6mm turrets (IPC-HDW4421C)

    Can anyone please verify if SmartPSS v2 is working with the 4421c? I'm trying it, but it keeps crashing my cams ( see herefor the thread ) . Is SmartPSS v2 maybe not for second gen Themis cameras? SmartPss 1.16 still works great btw.

    mini IPcam Gadinan 2MP vs Dahua 4431

    Thank you for this comparison. That is quite nice result from the Gadinan! I don't see major quality difference between the screenshots (maybe like 10% difference) while the price difference between the cams is ike 50%.

    SmartPSS 2.001 keeps rebooting my cameras

    I decided to try the new smartPSS version 2.00.1 after seeing the nice pictures from nayr. Unfortunately it keeps rebooting my four Dahua 4421c cameras (Chinese model, but bought with english language from Aliexpress). This happens once I add the cameras to PC-NVR 3.0 or once I go to the config...

    High CPU usage in BI demo with all settings off...

    That's interesting. I thought the demo had all functionalities and was only limited by a watermark and 15 days trial. I also didn't expect direct-to-disc to be the reason for the high cpu usage since recording and motion is disabled in my settings. Looks like it will be very difficult to...

    SmartPSS recording both streams

    Thanks for the reply fenderman. That's quite a powerfull feature! Can you select the profile in the blue iris android app (the official android app is probably necessary for this feature, or can tinycam also playback history recordings with the profile)? I assume the reencoding will be done...

    SmartPSS recording both streams

    This probably isn't possible with SmartPSS, but I wonder... I'm currently recording the main (high-res) stream of my Dahua cam 24/7 with SmartPSS. I want to keep recording this high-res stream so I can have the best picture in case of an emergency. I'd also like to record the second (lower-res)...

    Dahua Cameras... Firmware / Region Locks

    Thank you for the answer and amazing work. Looks like things are about to get very interesting in the Dahua-universe (thanks to your findings everything is now wide-open). I would have volunteered to experiment on my Themis camera (4421c) so we could get a modified themis-firmware too, but...

    Dahua Cameras... Firmware / Region Locks

    You are godlike for acquiring this information and sharing the firmware! One question out of curiosity: I understand from the above text that the checks are in the firmware and in the application server software (sonia). Does that mean that once your modified firmware is flashed (and so sonia...
