Hi

If someone get caught with my cameras (5231r-z), I wanted to know if it is possible to use the dahua HTTP API to select part of a video recording then send it to a ftp/nas server ?

Any helps ?

Thanks
 
You can use this for downloading a certain part of the recording from a NVR:

Code: 
Syntax:

http://<server>/cgi-bin/loadfile.cgi?action=startLoad&channel=<ChannelNo>&startTime=<starttime>&endTime=<endtime>[&subtype=<typeNo>]

Example:

http://192.168.1.108/cgi-bin/loadfile.cgi?action=startLoad&channel=1&startTime=2012-10-8%2013:00:01&endTime=2012-10-8%2014:00:01&subtype=0


However the format is .DAV and you need to convert it to .MP4 or something else. That's kinda tricky.

Hi
I use command
http://192.168.0.15/cgi-bin/loadfile.cgi?action=startLoad&channel=1&startTime=2018-07-30 11:17:00&endTime=2018-07-30 11:20:00&subtype=0
But the file that is loaded does not match the time on the team. Always download a full hour video for any other day except the specified one

any helps ?

Can you check your DST time settings? Others have reporting "searching issues" (eg. skipping 1 hour forward/backward) on the NVR too when the DST is wrongly set.
 
I should use getcurrenttime and getlocalesconfig to check DST?

And what about media file finding. Before I'll start loadfile, it's need to send StartFind(Create, StartFind,Destroy)
