Dahua DVR motion events with no motion

[slopolytech 0]

Hello,

 

I have a Dahua DVR like this http://www.cctvsecuritypros.com/liteseriesdvr.html

 

I have set it to record on motion only, and set the sensitivity to 3 (1 lowest 6 highest) with anti-dither of 5 seconds.

 

The problem is there are tons and tons of "motion" events where there is NO noticeable motion at all, anyone have any ideas what might cause this? This is happening on all channels. All channels have same settings for motion recording.

 

Thanks!!

I did have a problem once with a rebranded Dahua unit which drove me crazy for a week trying to configure motion detection. It would either miss almost everything when seting the sensitivity too low; or give me way too many false positives when moving it up a little bit.

 

When I was about to send the unit back as defective, they sent me a firmware upgrade which solved everything. So you might want to contact your supplier and make sure you are running the latest firmware, in case you have a buggy one like I did.
