    Setting up my new Dahua system and I can't see the cameras on the network

    Based on your client list, the item that starts out with DESKTOP-9D9.... is most likely a Windows 10 computer. It would help to shut off some of your hardware, full power down with the cord pulled from the outlet, to free up some of the IP addresses until you get your camera static IP's assigned.

    trouble with webplugin.exe in Firefox & Chrome, but works in IE

    This is the link to the most recent. I just installed it and it appears to work fine. The language options are English or Chinese. Recommend you do not install the computer based NVR until you get the main program installed, configured, and running...

    Yes, I did switch from PAL to NTSC without any problems. That was not the primary reason for the update. The factory shipped firmware had undergone two upgrades due to security concerns. Here is my current firmware and I believe it is the most recent. 2.460.0000.7.R, Build Date 2017-03-06.

    Always disable auto reboot on cameras

    That worked for me. Turned off IVS and upon reboot it returns to the selected preset. Based on other comments on this thread I have shut off auto reboot. Thanks to all.

    Always disable auto reboot on cameras

    I just checked and IVS was enabled. Not something I use so I shut it off. For a test I will turn auto reboot back on and see if it will go to a preset.

    Always disable auto reboot on cameras

    Yes. I have tried any one of four or five presets. Upon reboot it always points full up full clockwise. If I do a PTZ restart from Setup>PTZ>Function it will point at any of the presets I select.

    Always disable auto reboot on cameras

    I have three of the new Starlight Varifocal Turrets (DH-IPC-HDW5231R-Z) and an older PTZ (DH-SD22204T-GN) and caught the title statement in the long Starlight Varifocal Turret thread. Out of the box the PTZ was set to reboot once a week. To my irritation I have never been able to get it to...

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    Yes I have been through the process with @EMPIRETECANDY . I paid via PayPal and received a DHL tracking number from PayPal. There was quite a bit of time between payment and shipment because he was waiting on the junction box mounts so they could all be in one shipment.

    The order was placed several weeks ago. He had the cameras and wall mounts in hand but had to wait for the junction box (one at the top). I am in the Seattle area. The order was picked up by DHL last Sunday night in Hong Kong and was on my doorstep Tuesday afternoon. The DHL online tracking...

    ...when it comes to recording simultaneous data streams from video cameras. A good quality modern NVR has an incoming bandwidth in the range of 300+ Mbps. A consumer grade NAS, if the rating is even listed on the spec sheet, is lucky to have 10 percent of that.

    Dahua Starlight Varifocal Turret (IPC-HDW5231R-Z)

    I own a white box (unbranded) DH-SD22204T-GN that came from Ali Express a year ago. Is there any way to determine in advance of attempting to update if it was originally the English version or a Chinese hacked version?

    Firefox to kill all NPAPI Plugins: March 7th 2017

    By design, Waterfox is a 64 bit browser. I made a couple of attempts to install NPAPI plugins and was not successful. Possibly because the plugins are 32 bit and the browser is 64 bit? Maybe I am missing something.

    Dahua Smart PSS Question

    I am going to have to think through some other hardware changes besides the cameras. A NVR was on my wish list and I need POE+ for current/future cameras. Max number of cameras at this location is 3. Whether to look for a NVR/POE+ switch in one piece of equipment or two is the current question.

    Dahua Smart PSS Question

    I have successfully installed Dahua Smart PSS version 2.00 on a Win 7 computer. Configuration of Dahua cameras was straight forward.
