    Dahua - SD5A445XA-HN - PTZ From Andy

    Andy Can the SD6CE245U use the same mount as the SD49225T-HN? I may want to keep the old mount and not remove it and then stick the new SD6CE245U into it.

    Possible to change zoom on Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231-RP-Z with SmartPSS?

    The zoom feature on the iDMSS has been clunky for varifocal cameras. It works fantastically fine though for true PTZ cameras where it is designed to zoom in and out very fast like my 49225T-HN. I can very quickly zoom in and out by finger on iDMSS. Even when I'm in the browser mode for varifocal...

    Possible to change zoom on Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231-RP-Z with SmartPSS?

    You should be able to. I am able to change zoom with iDMSS Plus iOS app. This works for not only 5231R-ZE, but 2231, and the HFW-2831 bullet cam. Yes, we are talking optical zoom. All these cams are varifocal.

    Hacked Dahua cams with NVR5216-16P-4KS2E

    My Amcrest cameras work fine with Dahua NVR and Dahua NVR works fine with Amcrest cameras. I've tested this personally and no problems. Guess my setup isn't "hacked" setup. :)

    Anyone running a Intel NUC Kit (super micro computer) for Blue Iris?

    Wait it decodes the byte stream? That's incredibly CPU intensive and resource intensive! My understanding was that Dahua's NVR receives the byte streams and writes it out to HDD. This is based on their "320Mbps" bandwidth. Then there is a separate rating for their decoding, usually only up to...

    Anyone running a Intel NUC Kit (super micro computer) for Blue Iris?

    Edit Looks like this thing is 2.70GHz base frequency and turbos out at 4.5Ghz... It may be good enough 16 channel @ 4K recording and maybe 2 channels of 4K decoding... I really won't use much of the decoding. It's meant for streaming to it and saving the footage on the byte level. Then I...

    Anyone running a Intel NUC Kit (super micro computer) for Blue Iris?

    I'm thinking soon about making a switch from Dahua NVR to a blue iris pc server. But I want something with an incredibly small footprint. It's basically the intel NUC8i7BEH computer and wondering if it is more than capable enough to power a Blue Iris server... It

    how many of you records in color at night when there's adequate back lights?

    Every single camera of mine records in color at night. That's because our street is very well lit. This includes two of my HFW-1831E 8 megapixels as well. They pick up so much light/color at night, there is no reason for them to be in B&W

    Problem with order from Andy (Empiretecandy) and need advice

    I hope the package was insured. $1800 is a big order. The package would be big, difficult to just "lose". DHL shouldn't have given it to USPS. If they couldn't deliver, they should've called you to come pick it up by hold for pick up. Also, you claimed that the USPS main office barged it over...

    How does Ring/Nest cam establish connection without port forwarding?

    I've been trying to search on this and it is not clear. My sister has Ring and I'm damn near positive none of them know how to set up port forwarding, let alone their router. So then how does the app on the phone know how to access the Ring/Nest cams? A quick search reveals that Nest and Ring...

    Just installed turret inside kitchen ceiling!

    I am installing a second one this weekend in my upstairs ceiling hallway. Same camera, circular gang box, and PFA200G. This install is going to be more tedious because I have to climb into the attic crawl space and then route the wiring (being very careful to not step onto drywall and only the...

    HDW2231R-ZS paired with the new "Lory Ta" PFA200G Gang Box adapter and a Home Depot Carlon "Old Work" Box that only cost $2 bucks. Everything fits like a glove. Wife said no more sexy time in the kitchen though....

    What happened to Live Cams Pro on iOS?

    I have this app running 24/7 for a year now on iPad. It's great. But I cannot get ahold of the developer/owner. The app is also gone from App Store.
