If you are swapping the location, I’m assuming each camera will use the existing wiring of the other camera.
If so then why not just swap the Ethernet cable at the back of the NVR As well?
Then nothing changes.
@gilders Yes I agree: Luckily for me I don’t care about the path behind the camera as it is covered by another camera down the side and the grassy area is also covered by another closer camera.
I have 2 off 4mm ColorVu cameras set up at opposite sides of my double garage (approx 5metres apart) and use the built in LEDs during the night when the Council turn off the street lights. They are positioned so that they are only just in each other’s field of view and I have no issues at that...
just out of interest and for completeness:
Does a value of 0 equal keep video until its overwritten by drive capacity limits?
I have now just put a value of 30 in there to keep for 30 days.
Think I’ve found the issue and what a fool am I !!!!!!
under the record schedule, advanced it’s got a value in the keep videos/pictures for 2 days!!!!
Don‘t remember editing it, but I suppose I must of.
So I’m forcing it to delete the videos.
arghhh I must win the idiot of the day award!!
Right, really odd.
the Start of available recording is moving before my very eyes
the start times have now moved to
1 - 15:27:42
2 - 15:29:27
3 - 15:29:41
4 - 15:15:16
From this it appears to be overwriting?????
that is odd. I’ve changed it to 10 as above, but assume from above info it would of defaulted to 1Gb.
Looking at the start of recordings and there is actually a discrepancy on the recordings starting between cameras.
1 - 15:09:59
2 - 15:11:47
3 - 15:12:03
4 - 15:15:16
Hi Phil,
only have markers on playback for 2,3 & 4th Dec.
All cameras recording only from 14:18 onwards from 2nd.
Both HDD health is ”healthy”. Under S.M.A.R.T all status OK. Drives are only a couple of months old, as is the entire system.
Looking at camera HDD storage use each 4MP camera is...
I have a DS-7608NI-I2/8P NVR fitted with 2 x 3TB (6TB storage).
Firmware V4.40.015, Build 200616
Just went to review some footage from 21st Nov (approx 13 days ago) due to an incident being investigated and there is no recording?
Looking at my playback, I only have 3 days worth of recordings.

@jbertrand
The problems you’ve linked to appear to be for a PTZ camera.
I’m using V5.6.5 build 20200316 on my G1 Colorvu cameras and am not having any issues.
Yours is also a G1 platform.
Although the Firmware numbering may be similar the firmware will be different as PTZ’s are a different...
@gilders
Yes, I had issues with both H265+ and H265: All related to HD playback on other devices within the same local network.
I have a thread on here about it.
Issues went away with H264, so that’s what I use.
@gilders
I have 3 ColorVu‘s covering the front of my property and a relatively well lit scene via street lights but the local authority do turn them off between fixed hrs, so that is when I enable the cameras own LEDs to turn on. I also have a porch light which is on from dawn to dusk.
Am very...
I have exactly the same firmware as you and I do have the enable audio under the advanced tab, so that is odd.
In fact I followed the exact same thread to sort my lack of recorded audio a while ago.
Are you logging into the NVR via a web browser?
@busterboy
If you don’t mind me asking: How do you configure the flashing strobes?
Assume it’s via the cameras own configuration? In the Smart Event Linkage Method area?
I’m running Firmware V5.6.5 Build 200316 and can’t see an option, so wonder if it’s been removed or I am looking in totally...
Hi @Emma Hedges & @Dan
Any further info available on when you will have 6mm DS-2CD2347’s arriving?
I noticed you have G2‘s with an expected Dec stock date. Will 6mm be a stocked option?
Ok, I’ve done some more testing
