    Idmss push notifications "failed to subscribe"

    I was talking about pushing the video clip. I've never messed with snapshots. Have no idea how/if they work.

    Idmss push notifications "failed to subscribe"

    You need an nvr to get the clips sent to DMSS. The phone app (DMSS) gets the IVS clip push that is recorded on the NVR. In my experience, the phone can get a notification that the IVS was triggered but you won't get a clip of it unless you have the NVR. And currently, nobody can get clips from...

    Which Dahua NVR for PC-HDW5231R-Z Cameras?

    I got this one (without the POE because it's cheaper and quieter and I knew I would want a couple POE switches at different locations so I didn't have to run each camera back to a single location) Dahua NVR 5216-16P-4KS2 Paid $260 shipped from @EMPIRETECANDY (again... For the non poe version...

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

    I'd suggest ordering from @EMPIRETECANDY. You can email him at [email protected] and he'll hook you up. Lots and lots of happy customers on this forum have ordered from him.

    POE Switch location advice/opinions

    I Wil say I did get an old 48port POE+ switch from CL and stuck it in the basement. I could almost hear it on the second floor because of the fans. Sold that and got fan less.

    POE Switch location advice/opinions

    My router /wifi are in my second floor office next to modem. A few things connected there (computer, NAS and NVR) then I've got a line going up to attic, then down a conduit to the basement and I've got a switch there. I have an unfinished basement so it was super easy to hardwire stuff on the...

    Idmss push notifications "failed to subscribe"

    You get pushes from the cameras, but can you actually see the recorded video clip? Or just the fact that it saw an IVS trip? Because when I had the cameras set up in gDMSS, it would say "record unavailable" or something like that when I tried to watch the event.

    HOA Approvals for camera installation

    That sucks. I'm assuming you can't just move it to the backyard? Might not be as useful there though idk

    HOA Approvals for camera installation

    That is kinda big and creepy haha. Probably too late now, but could you buy an identical light fixture as the one to the right of the door and modify it to fit the camera mount inside of it so that just the bottom black part of the camera sticks down and is visible? That way it would kinda look...

    Oh and one more very important thing.... Make sure that the screen overlay option is enabled in the cameras settings.

    Idmss push notifications "failed to subscribe"

    For the past 4 days my alerts have not been pushed to my phone. I checked and I am still subscribed and I even tried resuscribing but my phone is not getting the pushes. I messed around with the cameras a bit over the weekend, but that was just adding some scripts to Domoticz for auto changing...

    Dahua NVR 5216-16P-4KS2

    A better question is what do you expect from auto tracking and how well will it perform. I don't own any PTZ cameras, but some members on here have said multiple times that it's more of a selling gimmick than anything.

    Who knows networking? How can I keep my new NVR septate from personal network?

    Interesting about the phones heating up. I've got a Moto Z Play (android on Verizon) and I've watched the full resolution video for more than id say 5-10 minutes on a few occasions and my phone does not heat up any more than any other program that has the screen on constantly. Oh and I use...

    To Port Forward or Not To Port Forward?

    I don't know for sure because I haven't tried, but I would assume you could run a VPN server on your router to connect to your cameras, and then use the router as a client to a paid service to get the benefits of hiding your IP address and such. So it's not like you wasted your money exactly...

    Switch Dahua Day/Night Profile via IPC HTTP API

    Ok I've figured it out now. In Domoticz go to Setup --> More Options --> Events Then make a new Time event and input the code from @nayr's github. Then adjust what is needed for your specific situation like login's and IP addresses. Thanks for this @nayr Also the code from his second post...

    Idmss push notifications "failed to subscribe"

    Do you have your NVR scheduled to record snapshots? I don't use those, vid much better to me, but I would think you need to actually be recording the snapshots in order to have them pushed to your phone.

    Temperature Overlay in Dahua Cameras

    The following is for someone as new as me that wants to get this working. If you have domoticz, you can probably just use online weather if you wanted to get started. That was my plan but I didn't get my ass in gear till I got my temperature sensor hardware and put it all together. Ok so I...

    Who knows networking? How can I keep my new NVR septate from personal network?

    Not sure how much the router plays into it, but I would think any router in the past 5 years or so would work fine. I think upload internet speed is the biggest consideration. I've got 1Mbps upload and it's slow. But definitely not unusable. I stream music from my NAS all the time. And have no...

    Temperature Overlay in Dahua Cameras

    Well, after a lot of trial and error (still don't really know what I'm doing haha) I got it to work. Haven't figured out how to get rid of the decimal yet (these sensors aren't even accurate to the 1/10 of a degree anyway) but it's at least usable. All that's really left to do is actually mount...

    Who knows networking? How can I keep my new NVR septate from personal network?

    I would also block the NVR from the internet and use a VPN to securely connect and view cams from phone. It's really not that hard.... VPN Primer for Noobs

    Who knows networking? How can I keep my new NVR septate from personal network?

    I would actually block the cams from accessing the internet as well. No need for it if you have VPN and more secure.

    The only thing I edited out of that second set of code was the ['username: password'] in my setup I actually have my username and password there.

    Temperature Overlay in Dahua Cameras

    I finally got a temperature sensor reporting to Domoticz and I'm trying to get it to display on my camera feed. I tried stealing the lua script from @nayr from his git hub page and recreating it in my Domoticz -- Garage Temp OSD --GARtemp = (otherdevices_temperature['Garage'] * 9) / 5 + 32...
