    Milesight NVR RTSP url?

    My client has Milesight NVR MS-N5016-UT. How can we get RTSP stream out from the NVR? In the settings RTSP is mentioned and there is a port 554 for it as a default. I have tried with VLC but it just gives an error. When trying directly to all Milesight cameras connected with that NVR, RTSP...

    Hikvision DS-7608NI-K2/8P NVR with cameras connected via Ubiquity wireless bridge

    Well, in Dahua NVR4208-8P-4 it has 8 PoE ports for cameras and 1 port for LAN (non-PoE). So it has two subnets, default 10.1.1.x for PoE-switch and then for example 192.168.1.x for LAN. Dahua can find the cameras in both subnets, I don't know how it is with Hikvision.

    Hikvision DS-7608NI-K2/8P NVR with cameras connected via Ubiquity wireless bridge

    I just did this last week. 5 x Dahua cameras + 1 Hikvision PTZ. 3 buildings, 2 cameras in each building. Dahuas 4-port PoE switches in the 2 other buildings. First 2 Dahuas were easy, just connected in the NVR which is in the house. Then there is Ubiquiti LiteAP LAP-120 5GHz in the house and 2...

    What you need to know about iVMS-4200

    M.fielding, well, time has passed by and things seem to be changed. Originally back then, when I had problems with IVMS-4200 and Hiwatch DS-I-220 cameras, I contacted the dealer/importer and they told that all Hiwatch cameras do not work with ip/domain and IVMS. It sounds crazy, because there is...

    Zavio camera in Dahua NVR = auto exposure problems

    Sorry, did not find a fix. So probably it is the same when watching a h264 stream with VLC player from day to night and vice versa? I have 4 Zavios recording to a NAS (camera is pushing the video on the disk) and this seems to work ok. So it seems when the stream is "pulled" from camera the...

    SmartPSS version with windows 10/64

    Bigredfish, oh, also that. Sound not so good. I sell + install Dahua cameras and it is hard to instruct people to install SmartPSS if every 0.1 version is so different. Also now I am a bit worried what happens when they download newest version and it cannot connect the device anymore.

    SmartPSS version with windows 10/64

    Now there seems to be again new version of SmartPSS: SmartPSS_ChnEng_Win32_IS_V2.02.0.R.171124 And no older version available to download on Dahua website. I had 2.001 170225 installed and updated to version above. I chose English as language but after installation it was Spanish! Could not...

    What you need to know about iVMS-4200

    Thanks Marku, got my Hiwatch work with IVMS-4200. But originally I might have been barking wrong tree. It was IVMS-4500 Android app that was not working if trying to connect directly to Hiwatch camera with LAN ip when connected with wifi to same lan. It just says username or password is wrong...

    What you need to know about iVMS-4200

    Hiwatch - cameras are also made by Hikvision and IVMS-4200 comes with small CD with Hiwatch cameras. However, I have never succeeded to login Hiwatch cameras via local network with IVMS-4200. Always problem with credentials, which have been checked tens of times. Connecting to cloud camera...

    Zavio camera in Dahua NVR = auto exposure problems

    I have a client who has Zavio B5110 and B5210 cameras. There was NAS storage for them but it was difficult to use and sometimes offline, so I decided to put a Dahua NVR4104-P there. I knew it would work as I have myself B5110 connected to my NVR4116 and in past I had one B5210 also. And...

    Dahua NVR4208-8P-4K recording question

    Hmm, I have sometimes tested smart search but tought it is just to go thru MD records in a certain area. Does it work also when the whole timeline is green (no motion record on)? So the motion detection happens during play?

    Dahua NVR4208-8P-4K recording question

    You have to make a schedule for the motion recording too, and that has to be for every channel separately. In web ui: SETUP -> STORAGE > SCHEDULE, choose channel, click setup on sunday, tick MD (00-24 chosen by default), click All and then OK and OK again. You should be aware also of the...

    Dahua gDMSS and channel (camera) names

    Thanks Nayr and Vector18! This was just the case. When I have added devices, I never tapped "start live preview", but save icon. Tapping "start live preview" gives a feeling that settings are not saved, but gDMSS starts to preview the settings... After editing a device and tapping "start live...

    Dahua gDMSS and channel (camera) names

    17 Dahua NVR systems so far installed, and I can connect all of them with gDMSS. Some of them (oldest) are with domain names and port forwarding, but most p2p. From those systems, there is only one (1!) which shows camera channel names in gDMSS. Others show only channel 01, channel 02, etc...

    Dahua NVRs motion record with scheduled record skips frames

    Today tested also to save DAV files directly in NVR ui to USB stick. NVR saves continuous record and motion record in different files, but when played on PC with Armcrest SmartPlay, it goes flawlessly trough the motion, does not pause, does not skip, just nice!

    Dahua NVRs motion record with scheduled record skips frames

    Yes, that's what I think also, that it is the player which is faulty. By the way, same happens also when you download a clip from SmartPSS. My Web UI does the skipping also (Firefox), the only one doing only small pause is NVR.

    Dahua SmartPSS in Win8/10?

    I found the problem! SmartPSS user has to have "camera" right ticked! In factory default group "user" there is no "camera" selected, and this is the reason. And this seems to have nothing to do P2P, happens also with ip/domain, just if user does not have "camera" right. Now I will make a copy...

    Dahua SmartPSS in Win8/10?

    Could be something like that. However in gDMSS Android app user with non-admin rights can see tha camera list but if some camera is blocked from him/her, then streaming wont start. Anyway SmartPSS is a powerful tool if used with admin rights, you could mess the whole NVR.. Some of the systems...

    Dahua SmartPSS in Win8/10?

    Yes, it has nothing to do with Windows version. Tested in fresh Win7 install. Installed SmartPSS and tried to add P2P device with normal user (viewer) rights. It won't load channels. Then deleted id, added again and put admin user first. After that I can change user/pass to one which has less...

    Dahua SmartPSS in Win8/10?

    I found something. If I export the whole device list of 26 devices from my Win7 PC and import it to fresh Win10 installation of SmartPSS, everything is working. Then noticed, that if I change the login credentials (admin -> user) of some devices, they still work ok, as should. However, if I...

    Dahua SmartPSS in Win8/10?

    Something strange with Windows 10 and Dahua SmartPSS software. In my own PC it works fine with Win7 Home, connecting almost 20 devices (NVRs/cameras), some of them P2P, some with dyndns. Installed in Win8 laptop. P2P to my own NVR works fine, but another one - P2P too - seems to be online but...

    Dahua Smartpss zip's won't work

    There seems to have been many different ways to serve SmartPSS on Dahua website. I have downloaded 7-zipped files which include .zip file! So double extract work. Then I have seen also .rar files. It is difficult to instruct someone not good with PC just to download SmartPSS from Dahua and...

    Dahua NVR4108 too fast live stream and playback

    As addition to the another thread about abnormal reboots, these two NVRs who have most frequent reboots, have also an other issue with video speed. When viewed in internet, web UI, SmartPSS or gDMSS, live video (main and sub stream) is running too fast. To me it looks almost like 2 x speed when...

    Dahua NVR4108 0x01 Abnormal reboot

    So far I have installed 7 different kind of cctv systems with all NVR4108 recorders. Basically all is ok, but 4 of them suffer of random abnormal reboots. Sometimes there are 2-3 days they are running fine, sometimes days when they boot 2-4 / times a day. In the logs anything common cannot be...

    Dahua NVRs motion record with scheduled record skips frames

    Ok Anto, so there is something different here. I have same issue also with many systems I have installed for my clients, but will have to go on the site to check if the same happens also with NVR own UI. So far nobody of my clients have complained about the issue but it's good to prepare if that...

    Dahua NVRs motion record with scheduled record skips frames

    Thanks Anto for your investigations. Seems that the issue is really there and Dahua needs to check the NVR software. It was not stated in your post if you have continuous record running all the time and then motion detection over it? I assume this was the case? Have you tried playback with NVR...

    Dahua NVRs motion record with scheduled record skips frames

    Found something new! I noticed that I can see the gap only when I view the NVR playback with browser UI. I use Firefox, haven't tested IE yet. When viewing straight in the NVR with its own display and mouse, I see pause of 1-2 secs when motion is triggered, but to me it looks that no image...

    Dahua Motion Detect Question

    Hi Scalesr1, You have a separate NVR or a camera with SD card? You should select also recording schedule for the motion, in the NVR storage-schedule-and choose also motion for the period you want (usually 24/7). You can run continuous record and motion record same time and then motion is...

    Dahua NVRs motion record with scheduled record skips frames

    Thanks for your investigations Fastb, that is what I thought also: file procedures make sometimes delay. I'm recording only the main stream. I'll try to report this to Dahua also so they could update the FW to have "mark on the timeline" option so NVR should not stop regular record to get...
