  1. This is why you don’t trust reviews…… posting crap on every site you visit is not a review and if this is how a company does business then it can’t be trusted
  2. Would the mp4 be a downloaded file ? NDAA publicity stunt ??? it is now compliant and a legal requiment worldwide dahua is now cheap crap … not changed its format in years sellers are doing everything to get shut of it before there stuck with it at the moment sellers are buy nvr get 4 cameras free NDAA comparable systems you will find are $100 less than a dahua and more reliable and much more functions 100% better apps
  3. The reason why dahua and hikvision are not NDAA approved is to do with there software and what could be passed on when inserting into GOVERMENT pc (police-courts-) just google is dahua NDAA approved you will see all info required there are much better systems out there than the outdated dahua and hik. there is also a few US court cases now going on we’re companies have sold dahua under a different brand name and the other thing about dahua equipment is the price … it’s well over priced take a 4K iP camera USA $180 any other country $60
  4. The problem with home use is still the same say you have a problem we’re you need to give police or courts your footage it can’t be downloaded on there computers
  5. Problem with using dahua is you could land yourself or buiness in hot water always look for NDAA equipment especially if installing into a business … Dahua is not NDAA approved in the UK they have already closed there offices

    Close up ip camera & lens needed

    Hi a standard 2mp full colour turret camera will work fine for you. which nvr are you using and we’re are you located
  7. Hi before you buy anything I would do a little more homework yes the viper is one of the best systems out I have over 80 out. the one you quoted is a bit pricey are you only looking for a 4 channel ? also the camera you currently have is 8 years old and is a Samsung.. Samsung don’t play nice with other systems as far as connecting a ring doorbell yes it can be done BUT again may not play well but the viper does now have an add on which will control all smart devices from ring to garage/ door control. And doing this way keeps the nvr under the new NDAA regulations …. Is this for home use

    can't get video on my phone question

    Some phones it works some don’t and that to do with the app …. It’s not been updated for years why do you use tinycam ? It’s a 3rd party China server app ….. do you use a dvr or nvr
  9. Hi. It looks like smart record is enabled. This is used to save space on hard drive.. basically your recording is lower res when no motion is detected and switches to high on motion detection as you can see in your video when the little Bunny 🐰 moves it’s high res. mare you recording 24/7 ? also you might want to turn up your pre and post record time … it looks like you have both set to 0 in your video

    New Dahua XVR5116H HDD alarm

    Hi. 34ford i think your problem is your hard drive…. If it’s been used for 8 years then it is at the end of its life with your new recorder …Ai -H265-audio-4K it’s a lot of data …. A hard drive of 8 years will look as if a format cleans it up we’re the fact is it does not ….. it only passes by the bad sectors and the more bad sectors make it hard to wright to. You can’t put a hard drive back to original it will always have data on it
  16. Hi. Can you give your location so as links given can be in your area also is your system used for domestic or a business

    Hi. Can you list the baluns you used and how many pairs for power and video used also type of power supply and amp size …. And how many cameras on the power supply power supplies can start to degrade over time and get weak
  18. Hi it’s over priced and it’s cheaper to buy two cameras to do the same job two separate cameras gives a little more protection were as the dahua dull cam one problem and both cameras go down at same time seperate cameras at least one will still be working and you save money

    Powerline CCTV.

    Something like this … but you will need a power supply for camera or use a Poe switch at camera end ( switch will power 4 cameras) https://www.amazon.co.uk/NETGEAR-PL1000-100UKS-Powerline-Ethernet-Homeplug/dp/B01BD9TFI4/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=2U4QPD997NOCT&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.qvm_gQ5Qeh4zIWqKJzeCuHkCulZ3PqCLnHGXSA1Ehc3C5P-t_FIXo1YEHJWYqO8_r1BMyuf-31Jqkri7rAEfzIij5RuXp7-OGvTdGoMUSVedYV2xRuh7Ji_bZHnYdFGAnNMr_ksy3u78YupWNhEnuf-JwPdw65F8bYS-6Pz6lcshNyAHGaFGGdLIyfclX2pknuglHxzdz4YxcqTkBXp4rw.dbe8pGwa4i5i7AseQMVb4DnjrBA6-dUudpqvZU0EXVg&dib_tag=se&keywords=netgear+powerline+1000&qid=1712609155&sprefix=netegear+power%2Caps%2C93&sr=8-3

    Powerline CCTV.

    Hi when an over priced company lies to you then it’s a hint they have no clue powerline adapters have been around for years and IS NOT NEW TECHNOLOGY by them just buy a set of netgear powerline adapters and you have the same and work on any iP camera and don’t buy anything from that company they have listed 1 cam 1 nvr for £1.200 ($1.800) that has to be the most expensive one cam system in the world and that’s not fitted

    Recommendations for AI based NVR?

    Hi. As you can see from posts over 10 years ago I am not a fan of hikvision it’s always been clunky and out of date. where are you based ??? what functions of Ai are you looking at using with your system ? most Ai nvrs also need Ai comparable cameras so just swapping out your nvr is not going to help what is your budget ? I have been using TVT for over 8 years and I have not seen anything better as of yet and the Ai side works well and no extra costs
  25. Hi axis updated there app yesterday have you updated it yet
