Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series
All options you mentioned are video processing options done in SOC (processor) - in mixed software & hardware solution. Not at image sensor level. The only image settings which change image sensor behavior are: shutter time, gain (aka ISO) and full WDR (>= 45 or 50 depending of camera model)... -
Dahua WizColor 5x59-PRO and SmartLight 5x59-IL new series
@bigredfish We don't know that.. SmartSense sensors were used for many years in non AI-ISP (classic video processing) Full Color cams (HIK vuColor and some Dahua Full Color) and they have comparable night color performance to 5442... For some reason they were used in Full Color cams - probably... -
T54 no sub snapshot SOLVED
Check your encoding settings for secondary stream in camera settings If I remember correctly this call CHANGE encoding for secondary stream from h264/h265 to mjpeg. -
URGENT!!! There will be new DMSS 2.0 and new cloud account mode & new cloud video streaming
There is always only one account which is true owner and admin of device (in Dahua cloud way). And it can give access for device to many more users. If company don’t have admin / device owner, then you can be that person / account in DMSS -
Has anyone tried Homey Pro?
Yes I used previous gen Lots of supported locally devices… also over zigbee and zwave IF you hate home assistant and want to use easy to configure local platform which integrates many different devices and protocols, homey is best what you can get on the market- steve1225

EOM (End of Marketing and Sales) for 5442-S3 announced
yes, they use the same SOC and firmware as 54PRO... But image sensor for 99% is different... Both HIK & Dahua have AI-ISP only for Smart Sense sensors. I don't know why - maybe some AI-ISP processing is simply done on image sensor and not on SOC... 5x59-PRO have 4/6/8 Mpx models on 1/1.8"... -
EOM (End of Marketing and Sales) for 5442-S3 announced
I strongly suspect (based on differences in specifications) that the 5x59-IL models are based on OmniVision sensors (the same as in the 5442-S3, or newer generations) and not Smart Sense sense (like TIOC-PRO / 5x59-PRO and HIK ColorVu cams). they have from beginning disabled WizColor / AI-ISP... -

And return to XX century? no... AI is and will be part of our life.. And it will progress in next models... Problem with AI on CCTV cameras is that CCTV cams are using cheap a few dollars SOCs (chips), which are very limited.. There is big difference on AI capabilities / performance / size...- steve1225

Dahua keeps dropping Frames Per SEcond (FPS) to around 5 - 6 even though it's programmed to do 25.
without some night video footage showing the problem with 6fps and some visible vehicle/human movement on it (to see what exposure time was used by camera and what light/IR situation was on scene) - it's hard to help you... you can try update firmware to latest one, try to downgrade encoder to... -
Dahua keeps dropping Frames Per SEcond (FPS) to around 5 - 6 even though it's programmed to do 25.
show Your camera image/video settings.. especially exposure settings... if the exposure is too long (like 1/6s) at night then you will get only 6 frames per second... Also what are IR settings.. if there is too low IR, then exposure will be slow.. it's dark PTZ camera with small sensor... -
Do you all agree with this statement regarding different focal lengths?
only full color (no IR) cams are history now... today you have IR only cams or hybrid light (IR + white) cams... market is changing...- steve1225

Problem with Dahua is that, they don't see Ubiquity as a competition.. They see HIK Vision as competition - so everything HIK is doing Dahua is copying and vice versa.. Also they more and more entering other industries like monitors or profesional big event LED displays or even drones (Yes they...- steve1225
