    Version 6

    Well, got there... we're up and running After installing the version from December, I stopped the old service - launched the new one as a Admin. Once launched as admin, it prompted to install updates. Updates brought me up to the current version -- that refused to install otherwise...

    Version 6

    Okay, I just need to step away for a while before I really screw things up. Found a download of 6.0.0.1 from 12/16/25 sitting on my computer... had the crazy idea that I should try that... welp, it installed. Except when I try to launch 6 I get the fun error that the application and service...

    Version 6

    In any case, I'm a bit anxious about removing the existing installation before installing the new version. Even rebooted to make sure no other weirdness going on.... ruined my uptime record :D

    Version 6

    Well, I've held off on installing 6 for a while now.... downloaded the fresh installer from BI & went to install it.... however the installer is telling me to remove my existing installation before proceeding -- and from what I've gained in skimming this thread, that doesn't seem right...

    Issues with AI Not Responding & Error 500

    Review-SD4A425DB-HNY 1/2.8" CMOS 4MP 25x Starlight Auto-tracking MiniPTZ

    I had something weird happen with mine today. The presets all rotated their horizontal position about 45 degrees the same direction, the vertical axis was unchanged. Got everything reset and will see if it happens again. Really strange.

    Welp, for the first time in the history of construction it sounds like the stucco and styrofoam house is a plus. Waiting for the Amazon fairy to deliver a mount. Hope to have the new cam up this weekend. Ill need to spend some time figuring out how all this PTZ stuff works.

    Camera suggestions/words of wisdom - upgrading from "cheap" 4MP cameras

    Son of a... I know why. the 2 cameras in question are cloned/hidden for some stuff I was playing with a long time ago. The clones were attempting the old passwords!!! edit: 20 min later, issue is 100% resolved. For real this time.

    Camera suggestions/words of wisdom - upgrading from "cheap" 4MP cameras

    Nope. The cameras ARE assigned the same IP as the cameras they replaced... however those cameras were removed from service prior to the new cameras going online. The password for the new camera is different from the old camera. Even after establishing proper communication and receiving...

    Camera suggestions/words of wisdom - upgrading from "cheap" 4MP cameras

    Okay, I spoke too soon. Still getting lockout issues. if I time it when the lockout expires, I am able to get in and make changes to various settings that work. It's irritating, but workable. I'm not terribly concerned... the camera still does it's job .

    Camera suggestions/words of wisdom - upgrading from "cheap" 4MP cameras

    I do have a special character in my password (not an @). Maybe that has something to do with it... but then again, it works fine on the other cameras. Just bizarre

    <<<< Edit, I was 100% wrong in this post. See below, was caused by a camera/clone issue if anyone is reading this in the future >>>> Okay, likely discovered the contributing factor to my woes. The cameras that worked and were not getting locked out were configured in BI as Dahua cameras in...

    Looks like "something" is attempting to login to the camera and give it commands with a "System" account. Now to figure out what exactly that is

    Process (via memory, so I'm sure I forgot something) when I initially configured the cameras: Follow GUI process & set password (hasn't changed since my initial configuration -- all 3 of the cameras & LPR camera were set with this login/pass... 2 have problems) -set 264/264 -set NTP -some other...

    Camera suggestions/words of wisdom - upgrading from "cheap" 4MP cameras

    Odd, on 2 of the 3 cameras, the web interface is constantly locked out.... the cameras stream fine, take commands from BI for zoom correct, but for some reason can't log into the web interface. That leads me to believe it's not BI giving invalid credentials causing the lockout. Something else...

    Here we go. Still have a lot of configuring to do. It's not a 100% fair comparison, as the old camera's capture was from earlier in the morning with slightly lower light - but the crispness is incredible in the new one. I did mount the camera in this angle a few inches lower on the wall of...

    Camera suggestions/words of wisdom - upgrading from "cheap" 4MP cameras

    Installed the new cameras today... did a little cheating. I labeled the wires on each camera indicating their position and assigned them static IP's to match the cameras they were replacing. Had a little updating to do in BI as far as camera communication, but otherwise it was plug and play...

    I came here to say exactly what Scoobs posted. I have mine dump into a folder that's in my one drive account, offsite/cloud backup could prove nice to have one day.

    For what it’s worth, the car thieves in my area don’t seem to mind cameras and appreciate well lit driveways. Now I need an ai powered PTZ paintball gun with FaceID.

    Camera suggestions/words of wisdom - upgrading from "cheap" 4MP cameras

    Thats good to know. I just hope the angle of it doesn’t cause an over exposure for the other cameras facing that direction. Time/testing will tell.
