Maybe, I would certainly try!

Hi... I have a similar DS-2DE4A425IWG-E... same model but 4MP instead of 2MP, same series, same firmware... Looks like you have everything set correctly... mine stops auto-tracking once every few months or so... A simple reboot gets it working again... mine is connected to a Hik NVR, I reboot...

Another minor M series NVR firmware update V5.04.081 release 260112 is available on the UK, USA, and Global EN product pages for DS-7616NI-M2/16P. No release notes. Here's a link to the UK product page: DS-7616NI-M2/16P Loaded it with no issues... I don't see any obvious changes yet.

That's not good... wish I could keep up with you, but current geo-political realities seem to be creating inter-oceanic islands... hopefully this will pass and I'll be able to upgrade/catch up with ya!!!

It probably wouldn't matter which one, but here's a link to the UK product page for DS-7608NI-M2/8P... you will find the new firmware under "Resources"... DS-7608NI-M2/8P

Also, I don't think the firmware is the problem, but newer M series firmware was just released: M Series NVR - Firmware V5.04.080 Build Date 251226

Hi @Anton83 ... Maybe check this screen... turn off "Enable" on the unused PoE port(s)?

Similar to your other post... check that the "firmware version property" of this camera contains "R6"... it so, you should be fine upgrading straight to the latest version V5.5.82 release 190909 found on the link you posted.

That does look like the correct link since your current version is listed there before the new one... to be sure, look at the "firmware version property" of your camera... Does it contain "R0"? Here's an example from a "R7" series camera... There probably wouldn't have been a newer version...

Same here, installed and all good!

Hi @J273 ... this probably won't help because I have a DS-7616NI-M2/16P on V5 firmware... here is where an alarm host is setup on that model:

Here's an example of a goto preset 2 command run... ignore the ":65008" at the end of my IP address... that's there because I am accessing a camera on an NVR PoE port using virtual host:

A possible solution? Unfortunately, this assumes you have a PC running 24/7... You can use the following curl/ISAPI commands to send the camera to presets 1 and 2: curl.exe -u USERNAME:PASSWORD --digest -X PUT "http://IP_ADDRESS//ISAPI/PTZCtrl/channels/1/presets/1/goto curl.exe -u...

I checked the specs for your camera and I see there is no "Scheduled Task" capability listed :( ... like this... If the camera had "Scheduled Task" capability you would see this menu item:

I agree... and @trempa92 gives lots of help here... he does get a bit cranky sometimes though :) ... and I think this is the correct answer in a nutshell: If you check you will probably see the cameras are recording, you just can't live view them all due to the decoding capability. Merry...
