    Dauha / Empire Traffic

    My attached images also don't work, however if I click the "insert image (Ctrl + P)" button above this dialogue box, it allows it to be attached. I'm still not 100% certain what is going on. It seems the cumulative traffic is being stored regardless if it's LAN or WAN traffic on that first...

    Dauha / Empire Traffic

    Looking at insights, if this is WAN traffic, the rates are too low to be video feed. Maybe just packet handshakes for the P2P service.

    Dauha / Empire Traffic

    P2P is running, I believe DMSS was added by SN and SmartPSS is local IP. Neither application is generally open or looked at - so neither DMSS or SmartPSS should be pulling data to a phone or PC more than once or twice a month if we have something to review or save. The screenshot is a snapshot...

    Dauha / Empire Traffic

    I do use DMSS and SmartPSS Lite to connect to these cameras over the web, but I suppose I'm not expecting to see traffic logged when I'm not using the service. Do the Empire/Dahua NVRs upload my camera footage to an external server or is this just traffic moving from the cameras to the NVR? It's...

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI Questions

    That is how mine is set up. The tree is a little different, but this is how I've been using it, exactly. For some reason though in SmartPSSLite with your advice of reaching to the far right to grab the slider, (rather than zooming out) the right hand slider doesn't stick to the right of the...

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI Questions

    Awesome, I'll practice that. BTW V1.003.0000002.4.R.230330 is working for me too... Huge thanks. Hopefully they acknowledge this bug.

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI Questions

    Agreed. Is it a standardized timeout before it fails and allows a retry? I initially thought it was a series of pause/start button presses but perhaps just waiting on the stalled out file works the same. To clarify the NVR web UI issue of low frame rate and low performance on this particular...

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI Questions

    Thanks for your efforts. I found the same. I should have followed up sooner with more detail, but I can at least say we're replicating the same issue. There is an older thread on this forum with complaints of the same issues in SmartPSS (2017 i think?), he had the same experience where the video...

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI Questions

    I'm catching up on the responses here. Yes, P2P is enabled on the NVR for DMSS support on our mobile phones. I have not setup conventional port forwarding on the router for the NVr ports, though I have enabled and disabled uPnP on the NVR to see if that was part of the issue. Nothing has...

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI Questions

    Is "Lite" a recent thing? Purchasing the 5442 series cams, I expected nearly everything to be completely ironed out with the entire system. It sounded like all of this stuff is multiple years old, with the IPC-Color4K stuff being the newer equivalent in visible light cams.

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI Questions

    ---Minor Update--- Found the installation file for the OLD SmartPSS (non-lite), and it works 100%... I can only hope they roll out a patched version of SmartPSSLite. Exports are fast and painless, the app even remembers the last video format requested. DMSS - still works 100% - better than...

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI Questions

    Yes, it's been redownloaded and installed multiple times. The problem to export playback exists on the intel computer too, which is running essentially a clean install of windows and UltiMaker Cura as it's just used for my 3D Printer. (Razer Blade 15 2020). SmartPSS is by far the most reliable...

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI Questions

    Building a PC doesn't seem like a feasible option for me after spending $600 on this thing that doesn't work for me. I have an older Intel Core 7 Gen 10 laptop downstairs with an RTX2060 that I've retired as my 3D Printer computer. It now has SmartPSSLite installed and has the same export...

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI Questions

    Can BlueIris work in place of SmartPSS, using this NVR, or is this a suggestion to build a PC based NVR?

    This clip perfectly sums up my experience with this NVR and the provided software(s). Infuriatingly poor so far.
