Supply&nbsp;<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the camera system isn\u2019t getting sufficient power of data it will never display on DVR\/ NVR. so, you should check the all power and data cables connected to the camera.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, you can check the power source using a voltage meter checker to ensure it provides proper power.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can also use another power source to power up your camera and get it working back perfectly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Check_the_Cable\"><\/span><strong>Check the Cable&nbsp;<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You should also check the cables you are using to connect the camera system. Because a faulty wire might be the reason for your camera to not display.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are limitations of wire length that can cause the video feed or loose connection error.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reset_the_Camera\"><\/span><strong>Reset the Camera&nbsp;<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason for your camera display problem will be a software malfunction which you can resolve by performing a factory reset.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resetting the camera is a method to restore it back to its factory default settings. Also, a factory reset will remove the software bugs\/glitches and resolve the problem.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are steps you can reset your Dahua camera:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Log in to your NVR<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. And then go to the Main Menu.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Click on the Advanced option.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. And select the Restore option.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>5. Select all and then tap Ok.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Change_Video_Resolution\"><\/span><strong>Change Video Resolution<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the end, if your camera display is still not fixed you should look into the camera\/ DVR\/ NVR video settings.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes the video settings might be changed while you are playing with your camera settings or customized to incompatible by default.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So, here are steps you can take to fix the camera video settings:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. log in to NVR and then go to the Settings page.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. At the settings page select ENCODE mode.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. Select the right channel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>4. From here you should reduce camera resolution and bit rate.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If reducing the video quality and bit rate does not resolve the problem you can use another resolution option to ensure if it works.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe title=\"Dahua IP camera camera not displaying (streaming) \u2013 bandwidth exceeded on NVR.\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TS-66nAD9T8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Contact_Customer_Support\"><\/span><strong>Contact Customer Support&nbsp;<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If none of the above solutions has resolved your camera display error you should contact the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dahuasecurity.com\/Support\/Contact\">Dahua customer support<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The customer support team will look deeply into this matter and help you in resolving your device to work back.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Wrapping_Up\"><\/span><strong>Wrapping Up<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You should try these possible solutions when facing display issues with your Dahua camera:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Check Power Supply&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Check Coax Connection&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Check the Cable&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Change Menu Settings&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Change Video Resolution<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Now I\u2019d like to hear from you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Trying which method has resolved your Dahua camera?
