    No, Mike didn’t post anything yet. Factory beta firmware has many errors, they wait for newer one before post any review

    2025 New Arrivals From EmpireTech

    Dahua released spec sheets for those new WizColor 5xx9-PRO cams... And it looks like they bumped third digit in models names from 5x49 to 4x59 - to show that this is BIG UPGRADE in technology... As a reminder - the 3rd digit in the Dahua model number indicates the technology generation: xx0x...

    IPC-Color4M-TL

    Color4K is a toy with a lots of problems.. And it's old model.. You should look at TIOC-PRO and 54IR cams... TIOC-PRO have better color performance at night, is dual light (IR + white) but for now is only available in fixed lens config (2.8 and 3.6mm).. in a few weeks there should be varifocal...

    IPC-Color4M-TL

    more interesting is the same AI models used for detecting humans / vehicles can be used: for AI codec - to increase compression quality inside/around humans/vehicles (at a cost of background), for AcuPick 1.0 - to detect and report people/cars (even static ones) to NVR, which will analyze their...

    IPC-Color4M-TL

    SMD designation / versions tells how good AI models are in specific camera... if camera can do only SMD+ it means have very low powered AI accelerator which can do only smallest (most distilled) AI models... the same AI model used for SMD is used for IVS. Simply IVS just adds extra conditions...

    IPC-Color4M-TL

    this cam is from very low line (2449). it have very low spec SOC, which don't have power to support sensor full resolution - it does only 20fps.. to have full fps you must decrease resolution.. From spec sheet: Main stream: 2688 × 1520@(1–20 fps)/2560 × 1440@(1–25/30 fps) it have only white...

    I saw a few screenshots from new internal Dahua presentations about next generation WizSeek technology and new AI Search... they will be replacement (or more continuation) of AcuPick 2.0 and Video Meta Data in actual PRO NVR/cams generation... where we will simply ask Dahua AI NVR using a...

    Using the "experience database" in the 5442 s3 cams

    for recording 24/7 there is NVR / BI... I use camera sd-cards as BACKUP and they record only events... backup for situation that HDD in NVR will fail.. or someone will stole NVR (I usually mount them somewhere next to some TV).. there is no need to backup recording where nothing happens...

    Using the "experience database" in the 5442 s3 cams

    one more time: does they show when you FILTER THEM as type to tripwire or intrusion?

    Using the "experience database" in the 5442 s3 cams

    in the camera record / search menu, check when you select IVS type (tripwire or intrusion) as filter does it SHOWS your events? if not, something is not properly configured..

    Using the "experience database" in the 5442 s3 cams

    when I tried to use this feature, I did on NVR... You create experience database in IVS/Global config.. But populating this database is from AI -> view events -> IVS level.. When you select any event and view the recording, in view window (on NVR over HDMI and web) is icon (last one) which...

    [Help] Two-Way Audio with Dahua (DH-P5AE-PV) Camera via go2rtc & WebRTC – No Audio Output

    Dahua had in past separate brand / company called Imou Life. Which produced / distributed very cheap consumer based cams, designed to work with Imou Life mobile app and Imou Life cloud services and sold directly to consumers (without installers) as Imou Life brand. Those cams never had Dahua...

    [Help] Two-Way Audio with Dahua (DH-P5AE-PV) Camera via go2rtc & WebRTC – No Audio Output

    Check is this speaker and talkback feature simply works using Dahua mobile app (DMSS)? This camera is NOT a proper Dahua camera.. But rebrand of cheap consumer based Imou Life cam with some very cut Dahua firmware... We don't know how bad/good is Dahua / ONVIF API implemented here.. try to...

    NVR freezing (sometimes) Question?

    little strange.. you have external POE switch, so it can be also NVR<>switch cable problem... it's old NVR model - how many years it's used? you can try to replace with something new.. third possibility - HDD's are dying. And somehow blocks NVR.. you can try to check S.M.A.R.T. status od all...

    NVR freezing (sometimes) Question?

    if this is in live view over monitor connected to HDMI (that information should be in first post) and live view (not playback of old recordings!) freeze every now and then, then most probably cause of the problem is not NVR but bad network cables to cameras (especially badly made CAT5 plugs...

    What a Difference 10 Years Make in Camera Capability

    5442-S3 is almost 3 years old camera... You should try TIOC-PRO 3449, which use totally new AI-ISP video processing technology.. with this lighting it should give you bright colorful image... there is risk that darker parts will be noisy, but when city will fix that lamp it should be good...

    2025 New Arrivals From EmpireTech

    Andy, does Mike have not only 5442 but also TIOC-PRO / 3449 to compare? This picture above don't look like from WizColor cameras at all.. There is big risk, that firmware you have now don't have enabled WizColor and/or AI-ISP video processing... Like it was with TIOC-PRO in 3 first month of...

    Normally not... But AI NVR can add SECOND ai function to those AI cams... Like adding Face Detection & Recognition to camera with IVS... Of course there are AI / bandwith / decoding limits when You use AI on NVR - everything is in the spec sheet.

    HIK NVR is for HIK cameras, Dahua NVR is for Dahua cameras.. main difference is in what ecosystem you want to live (camera, NVR, UI/UX, mobile app).. this forum is mostly Dahua forum, so You will not find here big love for HIK.. HIK M-line is not AI NVR (like HIK Acusense or DeepinMind...
