  1. The recorder will keep stop starting or only run short time is your fan on the side or over the cpu
  2. Hi then as expected you have a fan problem which is common with that type of dahua unplugging the fan is not going to help as it has a monitoring check on startup and run fan not turning = fault fan drawing to much amps= fault some dahua units have led lights on main board …. All 4 on good (green) any red will not stay running hard drive is grayed out as it can’t read it but just formatting is not going to help just use a hard drive that has not been in the recorder also another thing to check is the DVRs power supply check it’s 12v and 2amp output
  3. Hi if it’s been working for that amount of time you might also have a problem with cooling fans ….. have you checked if there spinning on startup other beeping problems can also be faulty hard drive … have you tried another are you using remote viewing or remote software …… I think your system is the dahua unit at least 12 years old DMSS for cell or PSS for pc means a dahua system

    That’s not the only costs your friend is going to have with court costs and costs watermark / signature will show if nvr was tampered with yes even power off and on and how long for ……. for upto a year you keep saying SAANCE ?????? they don’t make dvr/nvr or cameras so no point looking for saance support if they don’t make the equipment they are a rebadge company the police have cctv from a different system who sees your friend leaving his home …… this is also going to give investigators more information which your not taking into account for your friend it will show if your friends system went off at times said or your friend deleted files from that time …… the police will know from watching the other system

    Hi I have worked with many police video forensic teams all over uk the reason why I asked who has the recorder is important All recorders for years have two types of burn off (footage) which is burn off to a cd - pen drive … but these are Dav or Avi files converted by recorder to play back only on pc now there is also a native file ….. which is why the police take the recorder away the native file is footage data that has not had a player attached like dav and avi files do and this holds all information importantly the electronic signature and a watermark… this will show the police that the recorder was turned off or a file has been deleted it will even tell them time and date and duration watermarks and electronic signatures can’t be removed from native files so it gives forensics team all the info they need including removed files which can be recovered I don’t know what country you’re in but your friend needs to be careful…… depending on the type of crime committed is it just going to be a fine or is it jail ? as far as recorder faults yes there can be setup problems ….. motion set too low ….. a wrong schedule set up .. but this would show up same time same day on prior weeks …. But also show on signature or watermark as far as outside tampering or removal of footage …… someone would have to be watching his system 24/7 and if they see his crime delete the footage …. That does not happen ……. But again the forensics team will have also checked that in two ways again watermark and signature but also the police would of asked from your friends internet service provider for a log of activity in and outbound traffic now if the police have gone this far with him then they have more footage than what you have seen (native files) which can’t be removed….. this is why the police took the recorder …. Burnt off footage can be manipulated native files can’t with out showing up on watermark and signature again it depends on the crime if your friend wants to fight it ….. is it just a fine or prison? and also take into account costs around two years ago in Birmingham it was a news agents between 7am and 8 am the staff would switch off the recorder to sell tobacco to kids ( split packs of cigarettes up) to sell one or two to kids each morning Monday to Friday he tried to fight in court he never did the offences till watermark and electronic signature showed he did ……. 4 months prison and £400 fine …… and he also had to pay forensics time …. Over £32k

    Odd Camera Requirment from India

    For a PTZ …. POE camera ….. is that weekly or monthly
  8. Hi both cameras store offsite…. The black face camera is a dahua network camera …. It does not just run on a monitor outside it has to go into a nvr or server the other camera is a PT smart camera that moves and also records video and audio footage is saved on a China server …. Both camera companies are China government owned what did you expect after Japan just signed a security deal with China
  9. Codes only last till midnight same day 24hrs
  10. Hi what make are your DVRs and what app are you using ?
  11. QQRzyyRyz Try this one it’s case sensitive also there are two default administrator 1234 and admin 1234
  12. Hi I have sent you a link to a better app Once you have downloaded the app open it and you will see cloud login ignore that at the bottom on the page you will see a picture of a yellow tv … click on that ….. top right of screen you will see a + icon press that device ….. call home then scan the qr code on your dvr … then enter your DVRs admin and password click save at bottom all done
  13. Ok …… let’s get you off the xmeye app …. Please delete the app completely from your phone and other devices and I will pm you another app to use ….. what is your phone apple or android
  14. Hi the password the app is asking for is not the same as on recorder it has nothing to do with it it means your recorder has already been registered …… it could be a return to XM and then sold to you Aliexpress is the worst place to buy anything from ….. and in many cases it’s call a postage scam …… if you return YOU will pay for postage to have repaired then YOU pay for postage back it will cost you 100s for a $40 dvr were are you based
  15. Hi this is a problem with some DVRs……. P2P registration and password plus email is added to the remote side of the dvr so it sounds like you have bought a secondhand system. Or off a friend and you need the password or email of last owner

    Question re: Neighbor's Camera

    Hi. Ct has a one person consent law but this does not allow eavesdropping …. Which his camera is doing to you 24/7 Maldonado with the nest he can’t switch audio off so you need to read on your laws Connecticut recording law stipulates that at least one party’s consent is required to record an in-person conversation. Failure to comply with this law is regarded as eavesdropping.. as far as video there is no law unless you can prove he does not need the camera in the location he has it …. Purposely recording your private propert https://casetext.com/statute/general-statutes-of-connecticut/title-53a-penal-code/chapter-952-penal-code-offenses/part-xvii-tampering-with-private-communications-eavesdropping-voyeurism-and-unlawful-dissemination-of-intimate-images/section-53a-187-definitions-applicability/analysis?citingPage=1&sort=relevance https://www.security.org/privacy-guide/nest-cam-outdoor/

    Question re: Neighbor's Camera

    Hi. The dreaded nest camera … cheap nasty smart cam ….. not a cctv camera yes there is a lot you can do about it as it’s video and audio ….. the pictures you have taken and the middle one is taken from your property then you have the right to ask them to move it away from your property those nest are run by google and the video is saved by google unlike conventional cctv system we’re the owner owns the recordings on site if you don’t get on with next door then it might be best to get a lawyer to send him a letter all video and audio and saved onto google server is a breach of your privacy and you wish it removed you can also look up audio recording in your state on cctv audio recording …. In many states it is illegal nests own privacy statements also tells installer’s to not record into other’s property mill find some more information for you what state are you in

    Exacq V setup differences.

    Hi there is more to look at than amount of cameras but your looking at a large protection with a big cost you are investing in. retail parking Apartment complex and future cameras features I see you will benefit from for car park …… licence plate recognition and car colour face detection…. Also people counting while your looking at security for your property what also needs taking into account is members of the public ( food outlets … shopping…. Parking) who may need footage other than for security (the same for apartment complex your building….. car park monitoring and door / gate monitoring your in the position to spred the cost to all your shop renters and apartment renters so home work in choosing your system is important buy once. with having multiple locations calling everything back to a dedicated monitoring room makes sense Exacq Would not be my first choice there license is expensive Eagle eye is a good choice and have used myself but could do with better app it’s a bit like a toy … but there system offer all you need. but my choice would be a Avigilon system they are the best for your type of industry and best worldwide yes expensive but reliable upgradable and everything under one brand
  20. Hi do you still have access to internet explorer on your pc ? TVT sell one of the best systems on the market and use the best app that’s been developed An 8 way hybrid dvr is around £140 but will last you years on both your existing cameras and future hD and iP cameras
  21. So are you on a shared network ??? hik does do port forwarding its just automatic sets it’s self up P2P You will also need a video hosting for your website .. that is not cheap

    Exacq V setup differences.

    Hi. Is going with Exacq your only option ? how many cameras are you running ? what type of business are you protecting as well as looking for a new system your Panasonic has been free to run …. Going for a system that is licences controlled and ongoing
  23. Hi unfortunately with the wireless Floureon systems the cameras are paired at factory and you can not use other manufactures cameras wirelessly you can give them access if you connect to your home router and then call them back to the nvr just like adding an iP camera ….. this is not a wireless option but you can make them wireless by using eithernet over power adapters…. Something like the TP-link https://www.tp-link.com/uk/home-networking/powerline/tl-pa717-kit/
  24. Hi does the router belong to you ??? Why do you not have access to it …… is the iP camera connected to it. also it’s not that simple to live stream onto a webpage
