I was tinkering last night and saw that I can connect individually to 2 out of my 3 dahua cameras through my dahua NVR5216. A nice feature that allows some of the finer settings not available through the nvr itself. I was able to delete and add the third camera, and then was able to connect to that one as well.
The problem is it threw my cameras out of order. On my screen they came up as d1, d2, and d4. I deleted all of them through the camera registration screen, and added them in the order I wanted (1, 2, and 3). Once I did that, I lost the capability to connect to the cameras individually, however the camera feed was still working. Duplicates of the 3 cameras then came up and self registered as d4, d5, and d6.
I went ahead and tried changing the IP addresses of the cameras to try and "forget" them, so I can then add them in the order I want to no avail. The IP address of each camera actually reverted back to its original IP at some point as well, I have no idea how.
I've tried researching this and can't find a solution. Right now I have no feed on d1 and d2, and a camera on d3, d4, and d5. I can still connect to these cameras individually, however I actually made my numbering worse.
Is there a way to change the camera channel? Sorry for the long post, trying to give as much detail as I can. Hoping to straighten this out without resetting the nvr. Seems like this should be a simple task.
