  1. Anyway to get the NVR to do viewing at higher fps then 60@fps. I don't mind that limitation for record but really want higher viewing fps. I tried turning off record for a couple of channels but that didn't seem to work. I don't necessarily need to record all channels so have flexibility there if I somehow can get better viewing.

    IT vs IP cameras

    work with your IT department to determine the best route. They will be able to tell you if in fact you are impacting the network with the camera traffic. They can do several things to prevent that. You surely don't need a dedicated network.
  3. Is there anyway to adjust the sensitivity on the Auto Day/Night mode. I am having a problem where one of my cameras is not switching out of Night mode unless the blinds are open. Its just a touch to dark still. Would be nice if I could change the light sensitivity one way or the other. I really don't want to use the Switch by period setting as that need changed all the time as sunrise/set changes. thanks.
  4. I changed my main feed to CBR 6144 and my sub stream to VBR/6 1024. That seems to look good and I don't see any network bottlenecks so I should be fine. Using 24Mb/s on a 100Mb switch. Let me know what else I should change.
  5. thanks for the feedback. Is there a general rule on bitrate per mexapixal or something I should follow?
  6. Have a couple questions on getting the best playback quality out of recorded video. 1. Should I use CBR or VBR? I played with these and CBR seems to be better. I am not worried about HDD space if it gives me better quality. 2. What does the LAN Download option do? Setting is under /System Config/Network. Manual says it processes the downloaded data first. Is that a pre record buffer of some sort? 3. At what bitrate should I record. Right now I have it set to 4096 and that seems OK. 4. What is the difference between H.264 and H.264B? 5. I have a couple 1.3MP cameras, in the specs for the 3208 it mentions playback for 720 and 1080. Does that mean I should not record at 960 or that I will just get less total cameras than I potentially could hook up if I record at 960 instead of 720 for the 1.3MP's. Any other tips for good playback?
  7. I tried that for user default but the unused channels still show up. Any other ideas? I removed all the unused from all users except admin. it wont let me modify that one for some reason. So the NVR uses the settings from "default" for the screen output?
  8. Add to trusted sites and turn down all your security settings for internet, local and trusted sites. Once you get all the Active X stuff installed and viewing is working. Turn your settings back to default.
  9. that did it... thank you! Anyway to omit the channels that don't have cameras hooked up. Would be nice when scrolling through to only rotate through active cams.
  10. I posted this in the DVR section as well. Remove that post if it should go here. Have the NVR setup and working well. The only part that doesn't seem right to me is the remote control that came with it. It doesn't work unless I hit the "Add" button on the top right of the remote. Then some of the keys work. The remote seems locked out from working unless hitting the "Add" button first. Anyone else experience this and is there a setting for it that I am missing. I want to be able to scroll through channels with the remote Thanks

  12. Just an update... the NVR was able to login into the camera, and I can view the came through gdmss relaying through the NVR. Not sure what's up with the direct connection but it works this way so I am good.
  13. I reset to default and a firmware upgrade.. same issue. I just ordered the NVR3208 so might be able to work around this with that.

    Dahua firmware

    What is that picture a procedure for. Are those the pins for resetting the device?

    awesome... thank you. If needed, how do you hard reset these cameras with the reset button? Any special procedures for that?
