    Switch Synology Surveillance Station to Dahua NVR?

    For 3: Look at the ZeroChannel. Its literally a mirror of the NVR interface. Edit, i cant attach images. Site says "Oops, we've ran into problems" I have multiple IVS rules per camera because I cant cover all with 1 and sometimes 1 wont trigger but the other does. I'd really like to figure...

    Switch Synology Surveillance Station to Dahua NVR?

    Ok. I have made the switch! Wasn't so bad except for the constant beeping at first. I have the basic setup done but there are a few things i need to figure out. 1. All of my cameras have multiple IVS rules for maximum detection. I seem to get many alerts if i cross say my backyard. Like 5...

    Switch Synology Surveillance Station to Dahua NVR?

    Thanks for the information! This is what i was looking for. I wish there were more reviews with the mobile apps on these NVR's. Sometimes you just have to dive in your self! I picked up a NVR5216-16P-EI2 and will pair it with a 4tb enterprise samsung ssd for best perf. I am hoping that it works...

    Switch Synology Surveillance Station to Dahua NVR?

    I have troubleshooted the problem for a long time. This is not a mobile connectivity issue, I'm talking about on wifi with full 1gb speeds. It's as if the session times out or something. It's just inconvenient when I want to see what's happening and I can't see any cameras and by the time it...

    Switch Synology Surveillance Station to Dahua NVR?

    I’ve been on Synology Surveillance Station for a while. It works, but mobile access is inconsistent, sometimes the app loads instantly, other times it takes ~50 seconds. My setup is solid (enterprise 4TB SSD for surveillance, Tailscale VPN, 1 Gb network), so I suspect Synology’s software...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua DH-IPC-HDW5849H-ASE-LED / IPC-Color4K-T - 2.8mm Turret

    Surveillance station will actually still trigger advanced ivs events, but at the same time motion events are triggered for ivs. So its easier to just get notifications for the motion event. You can see this happening when looking at the log if you have someone walk through a tripwire.

    IPC-HDW1430DT-STW "Human Detection" what does it do?

    EDIT* I went back and set the thresholds all to high and lowered the sensitivity. I set human detection on high and using onvif device manager i could see that it was triggering motion event. The cpu in these cameras is just barely good enough to handle the normal operation. The UI is very buggy...

    IPC-HDW1430DT-STW "Human Detection" what does it do?

    I have a friend who got a 3 pack of these cameras from AliExpress. They look decent and seem to have decent quality. I have 2 of them setup for him via cat6 and the garage is on wifi. No issues with that but one issue i am having is that the "Human Detection" doesn't seem to do anything? I still...

    SMD setup help

    Hello, I got a new camera and it has SMD with human and car detection which for me is great! I noticed that the smart motion detection works a little too well, picking up distant neighbors walking out of their houses etc. I was hoping that editing the motion detection area to exclude spots would...

    Dahua SMD car parked in driveway?

    Hey guys, Synology continually updates their surveillance station and now they support dahua SMD event detection for people and cars. I currently have an amcrest camera flashed with dahua fw and I have IVS tripwire setup and it detects about 85 - 90% of what I want. I am curious though if SMD...

    How To Upgrade Amcrest / Lorex to Dahua Firmware And Get All Dahua Features

    I got it to work! In the camera web interface, nothing happens when crossing the ivs zones.. But on my synology it actually triggers. So it is working. Really happy to have added this feature!
