    Review-I'll be the guinea pig for the new SD59225U-HNI PTZ.

    So, moved the camera from the test floor joist in the basement to the garage to capture the events of the weekend while I'm away at a crawfish boil. I'm not sure I like crawdads? They are a lot of work for a little reward! The veteran mudbug eaters suck the juice from the heads. That looks...

    Trying to locate IP cameras

    Not sure how familiar you are with networking so please forgive me if this is basic to you? Download and use the Config tool Tools The default LAN segment for the NVR switch is 10.1.1.x. When you plugged in the new camera, the NVR reset the IP address of the camera to something on its...

    Dahua NVR Reboots during the day

    I couldn't chance it so I just went with (4x) NVR5216-16P-4KS2's. These are being "handed" off to family and friends once set up. I already provide all my friends and family with IT support constantly (you guys in the same boat know what I mean!). Don't want countless calls, which I'm already...

    Dahua NVR Reboots during the day

    I'll be keeping track of this as I have two on the way. As Ryan mentioned his above, I have the 5208-8P-4KS2 (POE) version that has been solid for 33 days now. Interesting. Hopefully something simple & straightforward SD

    Buying Dahua Junction Boxes locally... just DON'T do it

    Same experience here with B&H. J-Box & Corner Mount. Two different orders. Showed in stock, and arrived next day. I'm in NY though, 4 hours away. SD

    Review-I'll be the guinea pig for the new SD59225U-HNI PTZ.

    Frank, I'm not in front of my cameras, but there is an option somewhere for the intrusion box activation to "cross" or 'appear". I have the best tracking results with this setting set to "APPEAR" SD

    Buying From AliExpress

    I will chime in. From my communication, he doesn't invoice until he has the stock, or knows he can get it from Dahua, which he will tell you it takes an extra 3 days. My 1st purchase was exactly the same time frame as your experience. Lately, as @hmjgriffon posted, it takes 48-36 hours for a...

    SD42212T-HN have onboard microphone?

    Another piece of info to pass along. I was getting a "ground loop" when connected to the POE switch. This didn't happen when I was using a split 12v power supply (Itself was grounded). My switch has a grounding post. I will hook it up to my grounding block in the basement and retest. It was...

    Than you @mat200 for taking the time to type that response. It was very well thought out, and I appreciate you took the time to do it. I am awaiting a quote from Andy for 3 NVR's, 10x 5231's and a couple SD59's. That's half of us, with the others to follow shortly. We were actually doing 3-4...

    Thank you both for your support. I fully understand your extremely important points, and agree wholeheartedly. I like to consider myself an educated, rational adult and know I would never do anything to jeopardize my family or my well being. I've been hunting since I was old enough to get my...

    Toying with mounting cameras inside on upper window casing

    Thank you @looney2ns, and I understand your point. $20k (each, 140k total.) is not a lot of money to us and our neighbors. We would have to weigh the pros and cons of such an action. First would need a conviction on the original felonies before even considering, and there is a chance they...

    We had a neighborhood meeting Friday night. All 7 families are banding together in a united front. We will rise up and squash this prick like a bug. I don't care how much $$ he thinks he has. It is now one against 12. We want him to move, but not sure that will happen. SD

    Review-I'll be the guinea pig for the new SD59225U-HNI PTZ.

    Frank, try an intrusion box. I've had the best tracking results with one. Tripwire works less reliably. The saturation is phenomenal in the videos. Great color. SD PS. How are you uploading to YouTube? Are you using H.264 or H.265? YouTube does not like any of my formats exported from...

    Dahua NVR5216-4KS2 / NVR5216-16P-4KS2

    Same exact thing happening here. Whenever IVS trips, I lose 1 to 1.5 seconds. Exporting from a timeclip exports the exact same thing. Thinking of switching and trying H.264. Cannot upload to Youtube with H.265. Free Converting Software all garbage and looks like shite. Maybe me and my noob...

    SD42212T-HN have onboard microphone?

    I am rescinding my recommendation of the POE splitter. They do NOT pass the current from the switch through the RJ45, so your POE device will not have power. To add to that, when connected to the POE switch, I checked the output with a multi meter. The voltage pulses/fluctuates from 0 -12 v...

    I agree 1000%. The first step would remove his weapons, whether he liked it or not. My neighbor has asked his company not to do anything. His company is aware and at his request, is leaving it alone. I don't agree. I have 3 videos total. 5 minutes in all. Two are from the 1080P Nest...

    Frank, Last he stated here and from my conversations with him, he was checking all the included brackets for trueness that had not shipped. If they were straight from Dahua, that's what was coming. He was sending the others (PFB303W) to people who had already received crooked mounts. If the...

    No, not me. This camera is a future install at a friends house temporarily setup covering my neighbor's driveway. He's pissed at the company my neighbor works at because they won't come out at 11:00 at night. The guy is drunk out of his mind (stumbling, but it got cut out) and I have the...

    It's all recorded. I was trying to pick the time segment to export a 55 second clip of the cap. You choose the little scissors on the bottom. It defaults to an hour so you have to slide the right slider, which is usually off the screen to make it 55 seconds. Hit the scissors again, choose...
