    hikvision nvr with xprotect essential+ help

    I'm running a Xprotect expert 2022r2 system with the Dahua X72A3A4 NVR version V4.001.0000000.15, Build Date: 2021-10-13 . Xprotect is set to connect via ONVIF Conformant Device, admin account. When I look in the NVR's config pages for users, I see an admin account in both Account and in ONVIF...

    Any way to Add USB Ethernet NIC to Dahua NVR??

    What if you were to add a second NVR? Connect it to the same cameras in parallel (if analog camera cables). Then each NVR has its own IP, physical network connection, and credentials.

    Possible to set a specific "folder view" in the smartclient from a web-application?

    I could be wrong, but I think in Milestone, in order to change the camera that appears in Milestone Smart Client tile rectangle, you have to utilize the 'Smart Wall' feature. I think Smart Wall content can be manipulated by things outside of the client viewing it.

    Interesting test of IPC-Color 4K-X

    My thoughts: At daytime, the 3.6mm has like 10% less FOV and everything in the view looks 10% bigger, but I don't really see any difference in quality/fidelity of the image. Things are bigger, tiny details are 10% more visible, but nothing more. At nighttime, the 3.6mm is making the dark areas...

    New cameras for new building

    Fisheyes are king of the '1 camera, 1 room, see everything' solution. The biggest challenge is dewarping the view so it is easy for a human to watch the video.

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

    Regarding the first video: That looks good! The fidelity of the people that make up such a small percentage of the view is impressive. Regarding the second video: It only lets me view in 360p. I assume it is still 'processing'.

    Need Advice on Software

    Milestone XProtect line of VMS has products that meet the needs you mentioned. My impression is that Milestone software is primarily focused on being a camera VMS, with add-ons to enable other types of hardware like access control, intercoms, video analytics. It can handle any number of cameras...

    The optimisitic answer is simple incompetance by people in the procurement departments of various car supplier and car assembly companies and transportation industries.

    Dahua ConfigTool - bug reports

    Old thread! The biggest change since I last posted was that it seems all the latest few years of Dahua firmware no longer allows an app like ConfigTool to activate a factory new camera. Instead a person has to go the camera's webUI and progress through the wizard. Which defeats one of the major...

    What camera for monitoring front of server racks

    Seems like a very odd choice, I don't see any benefits and I see a lot of disadvantages, compared to just using normal techniques provided by the server hardware like iDRAC/iLO/IPMI monitoring via SNMP/email alert.

    IPC-HDW5831R-ZE (2018) vs DH-IPC-HDW5842T-ZE-S2 (2021) - 2018 camera wins in image quality

    Sorry, my bad. I fixed the above post. It's too aggressive on the 2021 camera. There shouldn't be those bright white spots within the tree at the top of the view.

    IPC-HDW5831R-ZE (2018) vs DH-IPC-HDW5842T-ZE-S2 (2021) - 2018 camera wins in image quality

    The 2021 HDR looks too aggressive in your latest side by side. The contrast between dark and bright spots within the trees and dirt is too much. So far all indications confirm I was right years ago when I posted this: https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/is-this-peak-ip-camera.41137/

    Milestone hardware replacement

    You didn't mention which level of XProtect you are using. The top level product has a License page in Management Client app, where you check status of your license use and can command it to Activate License via a few methods.

    PTZ Camera with Monstrous zoom?

    The zoom specification isn't the most important for your request. You should be looking at the field of view angle number at max optical zoom, as that is the actual "how zoomed in is the view" specification.

    Dahua Login Bypass Tool - Chrome Extension

    bp2008, v2 doesn't get me into the XVR that I posted specs of above. Perhaps it's version is too new and not vulnerable. If you are on MS Teams I can probably do a screen share to demonstrate, PM me.

    Dahua Login Bypass Tool - Chrome Extension

    It should unzip like this. You unblocked the zip after downloading and before unpacking? There's also a chance a anti-virus app on your computer deleted the files soon after they were unpacked. Maybe check for logs in your AV software.

    Dahua Login Bypass Tool - Chrome Extension

    Very nice work bp2008. I tried it against two Dahua cameras I have, and it was able to log into both with Method 1. I tried it against a relatively recent DVR/NVR/XVR and it said 'not detected as a camera' and was unable to login. Once logged into the camera, is there a way to change the admin...

    Hubble Panoramic Camera

    Install 4 tall poles on the corners of the property, hang wires between them, install a motorized cable movement camera platform like they have at sporting venues.
