    Cameras Go Offline Randomly, Changing On Each Restart

    I'm having somewhat similar issues with my Blue Iris 5.x install (5.0.1.0 to be exact). It runs as a service but I do sometimes connect via RDP and run the app as well to monitor the feeds. I don't normally use the web interface. From time to time, maybe after 24-30 hours of uptime, about half...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    I mangled together some code changes to include a box for channel # and included that in the URL passed to the camera. As you mentioned, I just had to add each camera with channel 0 and 1. Since the dual cam doesn't have focus or zoom there were no changes to those features. It's just a handful...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    By the way, if you have a spiffy Dahua with 2 cameras in a single body, this program will only adjust the first one (channel zero). You can manually switch profiles on the 2nd camera (channel one) with URLs like...
