    Profound

    It's funny how far they will go to make us forget about the Epstein List... I don't doubt what she is saying is true. Looking at everything we have found from ancient civilizations, before governments would gather and hide information, leans towards contact with beings not from Earth. To think...

    Hikvision as a brand

    You need to slow down. I would wait on committing to any cameras until you do more research and you need to read. You either need a camera that works for your install location, or an install location that works for your camera. Where are you wanting to capture license plates? In your driveway...

    Hikvision as a brand

    You need a specialized camera for license plates and an installation location that is appropriate to seeing plates at the right angle and distance.

    IPC-T2X5M-IL vs IP5M-T1179EW

    Being 5MP on too small of a sensor, they will both perform poorly at night.

    Bullet Camera recommendation for driveway

    The 12mm T54IR-ZE will have trouble throwing IR at 70'. I would go with the B54IR-Z4E suggested above. It has more IR on board and will also give you more zoom, which you will likely end up using.

    Bullet Camera recommendation for driveway

    30-70ft is a big range, especially with not knowing what you are wanting to accomplish with the camera. Seeing someone is one thing, but identifying someone is another. Below are captures from my 2MP B52IR-X3 that has 3.6mm, 12mm, and 25mm focal lengths. The three lenses in the camera all...

    PTZ5A4M-25X Tracking issues - Dahua SD5A425GA-HNR

    If you look in some of them, you can see other human boxes placed around other non-human items. The back of the white SUV across the street, branches in the tree, the fire hydrant (if that clip made it in). It wants really bad for that F-150 to be a person.

    PTZ5A4M-25X Tracking issues - Dahua SD5A425GA-HNR

    Here are some of my recent tracks after talking to JMCU and performing Global Config... Tracking a truck's tail light. Tracking a dog. Not tracking at all, after 5 triggers. Tracking another dog. Tracking the neighbor's lawn mower, again. Thinking the F-150 is a person. (It shows it...

    PTZ5A4M-25X Tracking issues - Dahua SD5A425GA-HNR

    Now that I have discovered I can attach and embed videos, this is much easier... My scene is different than the others in this thread because it is mostly Left <> Right, but these are some of the issues I am having: Losing tracking, target ratio seems to work in reverse (zooms out on target as...

    Review-EmpireTech IPC-B52IR-X3 1/2.8" CMOS 3 × 2 MP bullet cam

    How do you explain the disparity between the 25mm 3X and 32mm Z4E FOVs?

    Review-EmpireTech IPC-B52IR-X3 1/2.8" CMOS 3 × 2 MP bullet cam

    That’s why I didn’t want to admit to watching the video, but the chapter at 2:00 explains why the FOV is different between the 3X and the Z4E. Unfortunately, sometimes, he does present useful information.

    Review-EmpireTech IPC-B52IR-X3 1/2.8" CMOS 3 × 2 MP bullet cam

    I didn't want to admit to watching this video, but I guess here we are... His explanation makes sense. The sensor size will have an effect on the FOV of the scene, even with two cameras of the same focal length.

    Review-EmpireTech IPC-B52IR-X3 1/2.8" CMOS 3 × 2 MP bullet cam

    The angle of attack is slightly different, but it doesn't make any difference. In the 3X image it is zoomed past the trees. In the Z4E image, you can clearly see the trees, despite 7mm more focal length. 3X at 2MP and 25mm Z4E at 4MP and 32mm

    Does it matter if you use CAT5e for a long run?

    I was using Monoprice until it was hard to get on Amazon. I have most recently used True Cable.

    Review-EmpireTech IPC-B52IR-X3 1/2.8" CMOS 3 × 2 MP bullet cam

    The biggest draw back is the inability to adjust zoom or focus. I will post some pictures later, but the 25mm of this camera is actually longer than the 32mm of the Z4E, by quite a bit.

    PTZ5A4M-25X Tracking issues - Dahua SD5A425GA-HNR

    It looks like I screen recorded it as well, and I can't find any option to include the IVS stuff in the download. Even loading the .dav file doesn't show them. I used Loom previously. What are you using to screen record? I may just try the Snipping Tool.

    PTZ5A4M-25X Tracking issues - Dahua SD5A425GA-HNR

    It looks like you are doing a screen record to get your IVS rules and triggers in the capture, but how do I get them included in the downloaded file? I did this with my mini PTZ, but can't figure it out with the new one.

    My thought was that they also provided known photos of them, for reference, but that doesn't explain the image of the rando next to them.

    Why I hate phones...

    I started using LibreWolf as my home browser, but it's always slow to load and almost impossible to use with how locked down they have it. I am very tempted to just go back to Firefox. You need to watch The Social Dilemma on Netflix. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Social_Dilemma

    Can I use a spotter cam to trigger an LPR cam to analyze plate data?

    I don't think you would need to clone it unless you're wanting to sort your IVS triggers into certain BI camera rules that can't be done within the settings for one camera.
