    Is there a way to "arm" BI while "away"?

    I believe I'm overthinking this issue but i can't figure out an easy way to accomplish this. When I'm home, I don't need alerts pushed to my phone about someone being in the side yard or entering the garage. But when we leave for the weekend or the day, I'd like to be notified of that. Is...

    Pelco Cameras

    I used to work for Pelco in Clovis CA and left when Schneider bought them and made the environment suck. Good luck. They’re hardly a contender anymore.

    I’m just looking!

    My opinion is you’re a soft turd. I hate apologists for criminals. If someone rapes your mom or sister do they deserve to die? Yes/no? Where do you draw the line between the $50 camera and what YOU think is punishable by a forfeit of your life? Butter. You guys won’t last a week when shit...

    This is why you follow the speed limit signs

    Hey neighbor. Most of my stupidity was on 17 and bear creek rd. Although the idiots on 280 were trying to kill me on a regular basis. Bay Area drivers haven’t improved. I sold my bikes for my family as well. Glad I made it. I’m sure you made the right choice.

    Brutal. Some days I miss riding my crotch rockets. Most days I’m just grateful I survived my stupid phase

    How are you getting to BI remotely?

    I’m using port forwarding and the iOS app. I’m pretty sure that’s the worse thing I can possibly do based on what I’ve read on here so I’m hoping to use a more secure method soon. Just need the time one weekend to focus on that.

    Strange spot on the footage

    Interesting. Does it move in the same pattern or does it go randomly? Does it always stay in the same general area? Have you tried killing power to the garage but not the camera? Maybe run a long POE line to the cam from a different circuit. Since you only see it during night vision...

    Strange spot on the footage

    Joking aside, I would first try to find the direct of the light source. Keep lights off and move an object like a large disc or paper plate around it to see if you can somehow block the light and get it to shine on the plate and narrow it back to the source. Additionally, is there anything...

    Thoughts on his new amcrest cam…

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CVTM9JL/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_QE6M906BG8VGPJFQGQF9 looks like 1/1.8” @ 4MP. is this just a Dahua? Price looks ok. Any feedback appreciated.

    BI/Deepstack haven't alerted on a car pulling into driveway - need help answering "why?"

    If the sub stream resolution is .3 MP (640x480) and object MUST travel 100 pixels that’s almost 1/4 of the screen to detect. I believe….

    BI/Deepstack haven't alerted on a car pulling into driveway - need help answering "why?"

    The pros can weight in here but the sub frame resolution is pretty low and at 1fps I imagine it would be hard to calculate movement based on those configurations. The more experienced guys can answer but doesn’t the trigger events use subframe stream for movement trigger?

    What email service are you guys using for alerts?

    Push notifications from the app reach my phone within a second. Is that not an option for you ?

    Gmail as well but mostly rely on push notifications now for the iOS app

    Hikvision ColorVu + 4K (DS-2CD2087G2-L)

    Alright. Spent 2 hours messing with this. It was slightly harder than anticipated but hopefully I can help someone in the future. So as previously stated, getting the front end off is as easy as removing the faceplate and removing 4 Phillips head screws. Once you slide the face out, there...

    Amazon Sidewalk: what could possibly go wrong?

    I’ve never looked into it to the extent you have but there are some incredible coincidences that I’ve seen first hand. More notable- was having a conversation with a brother in law in his garage. He was showing me a tool bench he just purchased. Big sucker. Very proud of it. Told me the...

    Hikvision ColorVu + 4K (DS-2CD2087G2-L)

    Both likely. The two I received are both focused much differently in the exact same application so I’m leaning towards unintentional on these. But as you mentioned, fixable.
