    VPN problem

    Is it possible one of the certificates in the PKI infrastructure for OpenVPN, which you may have created when you set it up (you said it was a couple of years ago), has expired? Often with these certs you specify an expiry time when you create them, after this date they will cease to work. Need...

    PSA for those purchasing new Dahua NVRs NVR16CH-AI-S2

    That's fortunate, thanks for testing. When I do use DMSS, I never use P2P.

    PSA for those purchasing new Dahua NVRs NVR16CH-AI-S2

    In terms of this push to having a DMSS account for newer NVRs, does this affect adding via IP/Domain at all, or not? Can we continue to do this without an account?

    Anyone running the SD8X442FA-HNF?

    Anyone on the forum using the beastly SD8X442FA-HNF? (EmpireTech SD8X442FA-HNF 1/1.8”CMOS 4MP 42X Starlight Laser Nonred Net). I would be intrigued to see some sample footage, at various distances, and to see what the "laser" IR can do...

    If anyone needs a cheap, but good quality compact dome IP Camera, I present to you the $30 Hikvision DS-2CD2523G0-IS

    True - mainly because dome IR and dirt issues? Maybe in a sheltered porch by a door or something?

    If anyone needs a cheap, but good quality compact dome IP Camera, I present to you the $30 Hikvision DS-2CD2523G0-IS

    Yes, just trying to think of a variety of use-cases for this camera - close range stuff I suppose mostly.

    Be interested to see any sample footage people might have of this camera in operation, day, night, etc. I guess it might be useful in smaller spaces, as well as perhaps an overview camera of sorts?

    Rapid switching between IR and Color

    Yes, I had forgotten to setup the Day/Night mode properly within each profile... Changed to: And the opposite for Night profile. Imagine it will work fine now.

    Rapid switching between IR and Color

    Yes I don't think I'm going to be defaulting it... I think the issue might be that I configured it to switch between Day and Night profiles based on my schedule, but forgot to say "Force Color in day mode" and "Force BW in night mode" within each profile. I have not had time to check the...

    Rapid switching between IR and Color

    I definitely need to check my settings again. I thought I had them setup as above, but looking through the recording timeline, it's not behaving as expected... Today, the camera was still in IR mode at 11.55. It switched a few minutes later. Yesterday (11th Feb 2026) it switched around 11.05...

    Rapid switching between IR and Color

    I've got setup with 'Customized Scene' mode and a monthly schedule now. Its a great feature to be able to specify the schedule per month, but I will say, it was not too easy to configure :) Hopefully this works well. I am hoping it will handle DST properly with the current configuration too.

    Rapid switching between IR and Color

    Thanks. I would rather not have to remember to adjust it every couple of months, but I will look into the per-month schedule which my GUI apparently should have!

    Rapid switching between IR and Color

    Makes sense. Do you manually adjust the time schedule to match seasonal light variations?

    Blue Iris Version 6.0.1.24 Now Supports Custom Models

    Haven't had a chance to set it up to do anything useful, but I upgraded to 6.0.1.30, and used one of the YOLO models from the modelpack, and was able to get a sensible analysis (albeit very slow on CPU, in the region of 10,000msec. Perhaps I will try on GPU).

    Rapid switching between IR and Color

    I see. Obviously all I need to do is switch between Color / BW modes, and also adjust the image settings (mainly shutter) for nighttime, because I can run a much faster shutter in the day when there is more light. I suppose it makes sense to do the two changes (Color > BW and shutter) at the...
