    Dahua / DMSS playback issues

    Maybe it’s a coincidence but I’ve noticed that on my other cameras on HomeKit scrubbing isn’t available… only live view. Is it possible it can only stream to one service ? That’s strange though because it has that other sub streams . ?

    Dahua / DMSS playback issues

    Is there a tutorial on properly setting up 24/7 NVR recording?

    Dahua / DMSS playback issues

    Hello. I've noticed a strange problem. I have been getting notifications of motion from my Homekit (via scrypted) but not DMSS. When i log into DMSS to check why, i am noting no events for that time period and when i try to play, it literally jumps over it and goes back 30+ minutes... like the...

    8MP System

    Adding to this old thread. It seems like Luminys is coming out with a full NightColor 4k camera. It seems interesting. I don’t know how they are going to compensate for lack of light without so much noise. I have seen the 4MP as being the same as the Dahua wizmind night color. But I didn’t know...

    New Dahua UI motion / VCA setup question

    For the newer Dahua cameras with the updated UI, i have a quesiton regarding motion detection. With the old Dahua UI I have IVR setup with trip wire and all of that. I have that as well this time although the settings are labeled a little different. It's under VCA settings (under smart...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua - IPC-Color4K-X / DH-IPC-HFW5849T1-ASE-LED - Full Color 4K Camera

    AGAIN, I have had this conversation on here before. My 1/6 shutter is great for MY needs - which is general visibility. If you find that funny, I suggest doing something more productive than flexing your camera superiority on a forum. And yes, I HAVE tried walking in front of it and waving...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua - IPC-Color4K-X / DH-IPC-HFW5849T1-ASE-LED - Full Color 4K Camera

    It’s not that cut and dry. I have 4 of those N45 cameras -the pool was just one example since that’s the brightest but I have them in 3 other places. There is slight illumination in all the areas but it comes down to ground landscaping lights. I’m happy to show you the other cameras with no...

    Worlds First Review - Dahua - IPC-Color4K-X / DH-IPC-HFW5849T1-ASE-LED - Full Color 4K Camera

    I'd like to bring this back to a discussion on sensor size regarding the 4k and nightcolor cameras. I bring this up because i currently have Dahua N45EJN2 cameras which have a 1/1.8- sensor and they look great with almost no light. Full color. If i move to a 4k camera, the picture is going to...

    Dahua NVR5208-XI (WizMind) — worth it or better options?

    Wait, seriously? N82B3P = NVR5216-16P-EI ? why do you think that. That's crazy.

    Dahua NVR5208-XI (WizMind) — worth it or better options?

    yeah so just following up on this. there are NO floods in that image. i turn the illuminators OFF. That's the awesome part. Its just ambient light.

    Dahua v5 upgrade questions / Empiretech Taurus

    I can tell you that the dahua cameras that I am replacing look like full color without those extra camera white lights being on. I keep those off because they are extremely bright and annoying when I have people over.

    Dahua v5 upgrade questions / Empiretech Taurus

    I think I figured out the core of my problems. The EmpireTech cam is NOT a nightcolor camera. It’s just regular 4k-color but doesn’t have the same nightcolor features as those dahua cameras. I guess I read the specs wrong.

    How do i factory reset the IPC-Color4K-T ?

    Yeah I opened a different one up and noticed that. This hasn’t been a great shipment so far from empire. I’m wondering if they got a bad batch.
