    PTZ for the win

    I may be moving so no more cameras for now. I may not have a spot for the PTZ if the new place works out, so definitely going to dive into the alpr scene to give me something to tinker with.

    PTZ for the win

    Got some good facial rec. of a neighborhood vandal. Couldn’t get plate due to glare of IR on plate. (PTZ5A4M)

    Blue Iris with DMSS

    I’m not using it with BI. I just wanted to connect my cameras to DMSS in conjunction with my bi system to familiarize my self with the app before I help a friend set their system up that will not be going the BI route

    Blue Iris with DMSS

    So you would have to have a Dahua NVR in order to get the app working on a phone?

    Blue Iris with DMSS

    With my BI machine being the actual local storage. I'd get alerts through DMSS but no clipped playback only live viewing correct?

    Blue Iris with DMSS

    I currently run blue iris along with its mobile app and it works fine. I have a friend who likes my system and wants help upgrading his business's cameras. He isnt as tech savvy or willing to tinker so will likely be going with an empire tech/dahua NVR. I'll be helping him set it up but am...

    VLAN setup confusion

    So just change the IP to match the VLAN in the camera GUI and then find/inspect with the new IP in BI? Will changing the IP's in BI change any of the current camera's settings in BI?

    VLAN setup confusion

    I have a managed switch now and would like to organize my network as well as utilize the etherlighting on the ports. I want to start by putting my cameras on their own network/VLAN but am a little confused. My default gateway is 192.168.0.1 and the cam's are 192.168.0.(60-70), with the IP's...

    Switching Ecosystems confustion

    I currently have 1gbs Fiber with an Adtran ONT connected to a Eero 6+ that feeds my POE switch running my cams and what ever else is plugged into it. The Cameras are set to static IP and my eero's DHCP is set to auto. When changing to Adtran ONT > UI Cloud Gateway Ultra > TP-Link switch...

    Hi, trying to adjust the PTZ5A4M-25X bit rate

    Do you run IR at night or are you able to keep it in color with the amount of street lighting?

    PTZ recommendation

    It comes with the 305 and I ordered the 303 that was mounted on the pfa126 junction box. My soffit protrudes 21’’ and that was ample but wanted a little better view down the street. The 310 mounted to the 2x8 gives me about 17”. I ordered it from Orbita Digital out of Spain, I think I paid...

    PTZ recommendation

    Took a lot of fidgeting with the tracking size but seem to have found the sweet spot. Have a PFB310W mount on the way that will poke the cam out an extra 4” to clear the soffit for a better view down the street.

    PTZ recommendation

    Pretty satisfied with the quality of footage and tracking capabilities. Wittaj & Bigredfish were of much help. Here's a little clip of some tracking.
