    Latest New NVR4XXX-4KS2_MultiLang_V4.001.0000003.1.R.200813

Have tried resetting all default and same results...have...

    Review- OEM IPC-T2831T-ZS 4k varifocal starlight turret & PFB203W Wall Bracket.

    Excellent review Looney. Always love your reviews + videos. You're such an amazing person. Just wondering, can someone refresh my mind on 1/1.8 and 1/2.7 sensors? is the 1/1.8 sensor better for night shots? totally forgot how it works.

    Dahua 4K PTZ DH-SD8A820WA-HNF

    Nicely done. I haven't got a PTZ camera before but can anyone explain the idea behind PTZ cams? I assume the motion detection for PTZ cams are different to bullet/regular cams as it constantly rotates in 360 degrees to detect action?

    REVIEW: Budget 4MP Turret Comparison - IPC-T2431T-AS vs Chinese HDW4433C-A

    Nice review Biggie:cool: . Still unsure how I missed this review of yours haha. I love the images and test results. May I ask, during night, do the cameras get a glare? I notice "some" dome cameras can get glare/possible sun glare and slight distortion.

    [Help] - Cannot use SMTP on my HFW5442T-ASE (Loryta IPC-B5442T-ASE) but can use on my NVR...

    Hey guys, Good news: SMTP is now working. Looks like outlook is only the acceptable email (compared to Gmail and Yahoo),. However, I don't know how to get the Dahua NVR to send videos. It is currently only sending photos. May I get someone to help me on this? Thnx

    That's one way only. Into the cameras, but not out of the NVR. Either way, it doesn't fix his issue as the NVR should be sending the emails, not the camera. It's three easy steps: - correct.
