    Did I Miss Something or Is Eco Savvy 4.0 (Pro AI) New ?

    That's a whooooole lot of new camera's to figure out. Interested in what the prices are going to be; most likely more expensive than current models. But definitely some interesting models. For example: IPC-HDW5241TM-AS 2MP, fixed focal en IR. | 0.01232Lux/F1.6 (Color,1/30s,30IRE) If price is...

    Help me choose between NVR4104HS-P-4KS2 and NVR4104-P-4KS2

    I had a similar question a week ago: NVR4104-4KS2 versus NVR4104HS-4KS2 (The same NVR just without the POE-ports on the back). The only difference I could find was the different housing (smaller white, versus bigger black housing) and Dahua moved 1 of the 2 USB ports to the front on the -HS...

    NVR4104-4KS2 versus NVR4104HS-4KS2

    Thanks guy's, so it wasn't just me. :rolleyes: I guess it's a matter of personal preference. Andy did mention the -HS version was the newer version.

    NVR4104-4KS2 versus NVR4104HS-4KS2

    Hi guys, These two NVR's seem identical apart from the housing; the -HS version is black and *slightly* bigger and they moved 1 USB2.0 port from the back to the front. Looking at the specs and the recent Q1 catalog from Andy (Dahua IP Catalog 201902 Q1) I can't find any other differences...

    Thanks. Apart from the physical (black versus white) housing of the NVR's; are there any more differences between the (old?) NVR4104-4KS2 and the newer NVR4108HS-4KS2?

    Hello Andy. If I remember correctly; you mentioned somewhere on this forum something about new Dahua products to come in/around April this year. Do you have any idea about possible new entry-level NVR's? (Let's say a successor or updated version of the NVR4104-4KS2 (and the 4108 and 4116) NVR's?

    Review-Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231R-ZE 800 meter capable ePOE

    So this happened again this morning. Exactly the same thing. So I think I'm finally convinced to get a NVR. @EMPIRETECANDY you mentioned somewhere on this forum that we could expect some more new Dahua products in April? Perhaps some new Dahua Lite NVRs? I'm inclined to order a NVR4104-4KS2 (or...

    Black or white outdoor cameras?

    This video might be of interest to you: I find the internet doorbell market (I refuse to call them 'smart' doorbells because they aren't) interesting, but so far each and every one of them has drawbacks. They either: - Depend on wifi - Depend on cloud - Depend on battery - Depend on (paid)...

    Black or white outdoor cameras?

    I think the only (somewhat affordable) options are the Doorbird S101 (~ €350) and the Doorsafe DS6600. (~€105) They tick all the boxes apart from the 2MP, since they shoot video in 720p. EDIT: wait, I think the Doorsafe doesn't support SIP.

    Review-Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231R-ZE 800 meter capable ePOE

    I think WDR was turned off and I believe I had that one (although at the lowest setting). I turned it on and now the image looks about the same again. Stupid me, it's scheduled to reboot at that time.:facepalm: So, the night image is repared, just weird the camera some how changed it during...

    Review-Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231R-ZE 800 meter capable ePOE

    I found something interesting today. I was reviewing the footage from last night (we have problems with stone martens). Around 01:00 in the night; a recording of a cat; all looks normal. Next recording is just after 03:00 of a stone marten; however the footage is much darker than usual; I...

    I don't know; this would mean the same if you would wanna watch the main stream on multiple PC's/laptops with (for example) VLC. I have a 5231 recording on a SD-card (no NVR) and I'm currently watching the main stream with VLC on a PC, my laptop and Tinycam. (and also the webpage with live view...

    The Raspberry PI thread - What do you do with yours?

    Review-Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231R-ZE 800 meter capable ePOE

    Hmm, recently I posted here about the camera not recording (or not recording on time) when using tripwire. (here) I can understand the camera has difficulty 'seeing' the movement at night sometimes, but recently it happend during the day. My father got the car out of the garage and went...

    Review-Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231R-ZE 800 meter capable ePOE

    I bumped the contrast to around 60 (I had it on 50). Let's see if it helps. Ok, I will look into that. Tripwire was very intuitive to setup; I don't know all the details about Intrusion Zone. Correct me if I'm wrong; if I were to setup a zone (for example the paved driveway) and check "Cross"...

    Review-Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231R-ZE 800 meter capable ePOE

    Quick question. I have 1 camera above the garage door covering the driveway. The camera starts recording via tripwire; I have 3 of them covering the entire driveway zigzagging all over the place. So if anything moves; it should record it. Most of the time it does; however I noticed more and...

    20180523 Firmware for DH_IPC-HX5X3X-Rhea

    Yes, it switched back to day mode in the morning. I don't know how often it switches back and forth then, but in the end; it switches to day mode. It's not really a solution; but I downloaded an older version of Pale Moon (randomly picked 27.0.0) and then the plugin works. Hopefully Dahua...

    20180523 Firmware for DH_IPC-HX5X3X-Rhea

    I forgot to look how often the camera switches back and forth between day and night the last several nights; but tonight I had the live view on in Pale Moon with my PC's audio turned up so I could hear it switching back and forth. I've set the camera Sensitivity to low and delay to 10s. Around...

    20180523 Firmware for DH_IPC-HX5X3X-Rhea

    The problem was the Pale Moon browser. Since it was telling me this: I removed it from my PC and installed an older version of the browser, (I randomly picked version 27.0.0 instead of the current 27.9.3) and all the problems I had are gone. Live view is back and playback is working fine again...

    20180523 Firmware for DH_IPC-HX5X3X-Rhea

    I just installed it on my IPC-HDW5231R-ZE. Both Chrome and PaleMoon are having trouble displaying the live image (again; I get this problem every time when upgrading firmware). Both give me this: This new firmware does give me the 4th option under Profile Management that says 'Day/Night'. I...

    Review-Dahua IPC-HDW2231RP-ZS Starlight Camera-Varifocal

    I know but if it had audio it would be a insta-buy instead of the 4231. Now it's a difficult decision between the audio and fixed lens of the 4231 or the missing audio but vari-focal lens of this 2231. ;)

    Review-Dahua IPC-HDW2231RP-ZS Starlight Camera-Varifocal

    This looks like a great camera. For a new system I was thinking about getting 2 IPC-HDW4231EM-ASE but this one is prices about the same (€3 difference) and has a vari-focal lens. Image quality is apparently about the same (this one, the 4231 and the famous 5231). I only use tripwire so the...

    New firmware for IPC-HX5X3X-Rhea NTSC and PAL 20180330

    Fair point. I upgrade the firmware. But what setting should I work with to have the camera switch between the day and night profiles? You have 'normal', 'full time' and 'schedule' but none seems to automatically change between the day settings and night settings.

    That's great, very welcome feature. But I'm hesitant on trying the new firmware, reading the comments in that topic about issues with the new firmware. Anyone here updated the ZE model with that firmware? Is it working ok?
