    SMTP Relay server issues?

    What settings are you using for Gmail? I could never get it to work. Nowadays the email providers are wanting OAuth2, and I don't see that option in the Dahua NVR. I was using Outlook.com for the longest time, but they just changed their requirements, and now I cannot use it. Mike

    I stand corrected. I verified, and I do have the NVR LAN port going to my router, and one of the NVR POE ports going to my POE switch. :) @steve1225, thank you for the suggestion. Deleting the NVR profile in DMSS and redoing was actually the fix. DMSS is working great now. Now to optimize...

    Thank you! I will give those settings a try. I realize it affects recording retention, but I am usually good with a week. I see that you are using h.264h rather than h.265; Is this just for better quality and your hardware will handle it? Kind of like your last sentence "but if you can...

    I have done a lot of reading/videos and created a reading list of different settings, but still need to go through them more. I notice that a lot of people have different theories, and that's where it gets confusing...

    NVR Model is NVR5216-16P-4KS2 As for overloading, it shows that I have plenty of bandwidth available, assuming I am reading this correctly... The stuttering/skipping is only on DMSS, when it works. It ran fine before this latest issue. All camera settings are made in the camera using a web...

    No, the POE Switch goes to the NVR's LAN port, and the POE port on the NVR goes to my router.

    Your post is very chaotic one.. Sorry about that... :) I also included screenshot of other screens just to show that things like sub-scream were active, what all the bitrates and other settings of cameras were, and anything else I thought might help. 1. does NVR over HDMI shows video feed...

    At a complete loss, literally...

    Hi all, So I had everything working fine on my setup, although after various updates (physical and firmware), my cameras started triggering on motion instead of triplines. Well I got that all fixed, and during some research on camera settings, I read a post of someone stating to put the...

    Need to turn off IR (New GUI)

    Oh, didn't know that about the brand. I have bought all my cameras from Eddy. :) My other 2 cameras that I just got were labeled EmpireTech. I didn't realize that they were one-in-the-same... As for the IR settings, thanks, found it. :)

    Need to turn off IR (New GUI)

    Hello all, I purchased 3 different cameras to test nighttime functionality, and I am trying to turn off IR on 2 of them to simulate real world conditions. These cameras have the fancy new UI, which I have never see before. How do I go about turning off the IR on 2 cameras? The cameras in...

    Wireless Nanny Cam to Dahua NVR?

    Oh cool... And could I just use a WAP placed near the NVR, or even the powerline ethernet adapters?

    Wireless Nanny Cam to Dahua NVR?

    Hi all. I looked, but I did not see anything relevent. Does anyone know if there are any wireless nanny cams that I can tie to and record to my Dahua NVR? Would I need to hook it to a wireless bridge or wireless access point? Also, any that I can assign a static IP to? TIA, Mike

    Intermittant Issues

    Hi there. So I attached a layout of my setup (generic). I am using VLANs (Virtual LAN) to separate the cameras from the rest of my network. On my NVR, In the Network > TCP/IP section, I have my NIC set to 10.0.50.101 and the gateway as 10.0.50.1. In the Network > Switch, the IP address is...

    Intermittant Issues

    Correct, I have 9 cameras, and they were previously plugged into the NVR, and now they are plugged into the switch, since I moved my NVR into my cooler office, and all my camera drops were in a hot garage. The Netgear switch has a total output of 183w for POE, and I think something like 30w max...

    Intermittant Issues

    Hello, I recently switched location of my NVR, and therefore purchased a POE switch for the cameras. The switch I am using is the Netgear GS316PP which is a POE+ switch. I was thrown for a loop for a while until I realized that the subnet that the cameras needed to be on was 10.1.1.1...

    How to setup a Dahua IP camera without NVR (and change camera ip)

    So, is this why Chrome is trying to get me to download a plugin, and then it tells me that it is no longer available? I have multiple cameras that dropped from the network after putting a POE switch between my NVR (POE) and cameras, due to reorganization, and now I am trying to log into the...

    Turn off Tripwire End Alarm

    Ha ha, I just went in to create the filter to delete it, and I noticed that there was a filter already there for Tripwire Clear. Looks like that is why I didn't get these emails before, and now Dahua changed the emails sent from Tripwire Clear to Tripwire End, and that is why the emails were...

    Turn off Tripwire End Alarm

    Yeah I read about email filtering. The reason I did the upgrade was to get the bridge mode as I am using a POE switch to power the cameras, and have a single cable going to one of the ports on my NVR. Now I have a random camera that drops in and ont consistently. Time to troubleshoot that one...

    Camera options with Dahua NVR

    Ok, cool. Thank you for your replies. So, when I originally bought my setup from Andy, it was through an Aliexpress.com site, and now it seems to be www.empiretech01.com. Are they one in the same, or is the Aliexpress.com site no longer used? Thanks again, Mike

    Camera options with Dahua NVR

    Hi all, I have the NVR5216-16P-4KS2 NVR. and I am wondering if other brands of cameras will work with this NVR, or do I have to purchase Dahua cameras only? I tried searching around the forum, and didn't find anything that met my needs, or maybe it is because I was looking for a list of...
