    Need help choosing cameras - what's the current go to camera?

    Not sure what you mean, the bullet has extra led’s so is better at illuminating further? Is there something else about a bullet I’m missing? I’m aware you can get both bullet and turret models, just sometimes I thought I’d found a particular model wasn’t listed as available in either turret or...

    Need help choosing cameras - what's the current go to camera?

    Yes, I may, not sure yet. It's a bit of a learning process figuring out model numbers, specs etc. I think Adam's camera is using same sensor as the 3449's but has more LED's and fixed focal lens is faster so probably contributes to the excellent night footage he gets. But then, maybe the 3449...

    Need help choosing cameras - what's the current go to camera?

    @adamg - Adam, thanks for your link, I've been looking at the specs on the cameras you linked, and for some of the areas around the back of the property these may work better than the 3449's due to less ambient light, as these have the extra LED's. I've been trying to find footage of what...

    Need help choosing cameras - what's the current go to camera?

    Thanks bigredfish, think I'll stick with 3449 series for the time being and have a look for some more footage where there's only the camera's lighting available. It might be that for one or two locations I may need the bullet camera with the extra led's where there's no sensor lights and little...

    Need help choosing cameras - what's the current go to camera?

    Thanks fellas. I'm thinking I'd prefer the vari focal, makes setting up a bit easier, but if it came down to one giving better night time image over the other I might go fixed. Is the tioc pro a step up from the one adamg referenced, given they're both listed as wiz color (if that means...

    Need help choosing cameras - what's the current go to camera?

    About 8 or so years ago I installed an ip based home camera system with the 2mp starlight 5231R-ZE cameras which were considered best at that time based on information from this forum. Have been pretty happy with the system, however, I'm sure technology has progressed since then, so I have...

    Urgent Updating DH_IPC-HX2X3X-Rhea_MultiLang_PN_Stream2_V2.800.0000015.0.R.200430.zip

    @EMPIRETECANDY Andy, I can't download the dropbox firmware you have linked to, get an error 'file deleted' or similar. I am trying to update a IPC-HDW2231R-ZS I purchased a couple of years ago off you. I guess I need DH_IPC-HX2X3X-Rhea_MultiLang_PN_Stream2_V2.800.0000015.0.R.200430.bin?dl=0...

    Program for flipping cameras to day/night on Linux

    Update, I am wrong, the program does run, I just have to type the full path even when, in a terminal, I try to run sunwait from it's installed location. So I guess I have to update the path to include the directory. Thanks again biggen, you're a legend.

    Program for flipping cameras to day/night on Linux

    Thanks again biggen for your help, much appreciated. I didn't get any errors but when I attempt to run sunwait from terminal, it just says 'bash: sunwait: command not found'. After the make call which I had to do using sudo (make by itself gave a permission error when trying to create...

    Program for flipping cameras to day/night on Linux

    Thanks, this is exactly what I need to run on my multi camera system. I'm new to rasp. pi and Linux though and not sure how I get the sunwait on to it? The link takes me to github, but from there do I save all the files then run makefile on my pi? Also if I have multiple cameras, do I need to...

    IVS events not showing on timeline, Dahua NVR5216 4KS2 V2

    I seem to recall reading somewhere that IVS events should display on the timeline of playback on the NVR, yet it doesn't on mine, I'm using the web interface . Is the event markers on the timeline only for the native UI or should it be available on the web interface also? The only event I see in...
