    Almost had my submission for dash cam video tragedies.

    Overall happy I didn't have to stop and render assistance after a possible three way crash but I sure was getting excited about having a possible submission. All it would have taken is an oncoming tractor-trailer just as dumbshit works on passing a car on near the crest of a hill of which there...

    Close but no cigar

    Thought I was about to have my first dashcam video to submit to one of those car crash video aggregators. Oh well, better luck next time.

    Wood Storks fattening up

    No rain and low water in the creek means fish are easy to pluck without getting your pants wet. Mostly Wood Storks and a Great Egret or two sharing the space. In my backyard and taken via a Dahua 4MP SD49425XB-HNR at about 90 feet not fully zoomed in.

    Spring Break in the creek

    This is Florida's dry season. The rainy season typically starts around the 3rd week of May so 8 weeks before that you can see the creek has really gotten low and the fish are easy to snag. Looks like a mix of mostly Great Egrets with Wood Storks and I think I spotted a couple of Whooping Cranes...

    Rat Fink gets kicked out by robbers

    This possum is a nightly visitor who often triggers the cameras several times every night. He such a frequent visitor that I gave him the name "Rat Fink" like the cartoon character since to me he looks like a giant rat. In this video he gets kicked out of his kingdom. :( I like how the big...

    Barred Owl

    This is a common owl in Florida where there are woods and water (my backyard). It has a very distinct call that sounds like "Who, Who, Who cooks for you?" Captured by a 4MP Dahua SD49425XB-HNR at max zoom from about 80 feet away and overcast skies.

    Hey mon, nice dreads but how rude!

    Sam's Club delivery guy just puts your delivery on the ground. Do they realize that people wipe the bottom of their disgusting shoes on that door mat? All out of plastic bags or boxes? Weird because they always would deliver in a box and thing like the tube of ground beef would be in a plastic...

    Year 2026 - What's the sweet spot these days for a used eBay computer for Blue Iris

    Was just curious what's recommended these days for a used HP or Dell computer to run Blue Iris. I'm still going strong with my Dell Optiplex 7040 i7-6700 that I've had running BI since 2018 with 13 cams. Wondering what most would go with now if they had to buy a used PC on eBay. Also, curious...

    Yes, I could probably do better with camera settings.

    I have them (T54IR-ZE-S3) on AI mode. The IR hotspot is annoying.

    Any way to add a WiFi cam directly to BI server without a WiFi router?

    You can see my network configuration below. Basically, all my POE cams are sitting on a separate NIC behind the BI server (green). The BI server has a NIC on the front end to connect to the router of the home network side (red). (1) I take it there is no easy way to add WiFi capability to my BI...

    Zombie smells brains then checks it out

    What's up with this zombie showing up at the house? Looks like he could not cross that line of salt I put down across the end of the walkway. p.s. The date/clock is wrong on this cam. It was on 12/02/2025 about 30 minutes after sunset. Not sure why it will no longer take updates from the time...

    Zooz ZSE70 Outdoor Motion Sensor

    Anyone have any experience with this product? I'm getting tired of dicking around with my WiFi motion sensor floodlight that doesn't seem to stay connected to my network. Was thinking about going with a dumb floodlight connected to a Shelly WiFi switch then using some form of ITTT with my...

    Is someone trying to break into my home network?

    I see my router continually reporting these login attempts all the time. Any idea who it is and what additional precautions should I take? And, anyone recognized those IP addresses? The IP address 193.46.255.51 belongs to the netblock 193.46.255.0/24, which is managed by Bunea TELECOM SRL...

    Blue Iris Tools - the AUTO IP/PORT keeps changing the IP address

    I was messing around with ZeroTier for the fun of it the other day and messed something up. I'm already setup with OpenVPN and I'm happy with it but was just checking to see if the grass is greener on the other side by playing with ZeroTier. Anyhow, I decided I'm good with OpenVPN so ditched the...

    Before you replace that old dishwasher

    Pro tip: Read the manual :rofl: My dishwasher was installed when I had the house built in 1992 making it now over 33 years old. It's a KitchenAid and it was always a great appliance and back in the day it was one of the quieter dishwashers you could buy. This last year I started to notice it...

    I bet a lot of you belong to the "HVAC crapped out at the worst time" club.

    This time it crapped out at the official worst time. Died Saturday afternoon and it's 90+ degrees and sunny outside. I called the installer to take a look but they are all booked up today. I think it's the blower motor (again) so I'm going to risk $300 and change it out myself since the 10 year...

    Dahua T54IR-ZE-S3 - wow, what a contrast difference

    I'm amazed at the contrast difference between two different T5442T-ZE with the same exact settings. Both cams are in the backyard (the east side of house) and it's very cloudy today with no direct sun this time of day but you can see the difference. The first pic the cam is on the north side...

    BI changed my LAN address - how'd that happen?

    A few days ago I notice my Pushover links created in a curl command were not working as expected and I determined that the LAN variable had changed. Sure enough the LAN address changed from 192.168.1.200 (BI computer IP address) to 192.168.0.200 (Camera network IP address). Odd since it's been...

    Does this mean the HD for BI storage is kaput?

    Doesn't appear to have anything stored on it. I see the DS alert videos but when you try to play them on BI it says "cannot be found". Also, REPAIR DB is moving at a crawl...after 10 mins only 3%. Finally, I don't see a drive E anymore.

    SD49425XB-HNR 2MP PTZ - how to tell it to go to home position if nothing detected

    I've got some spotter cams that direct this PTZ to move to a preset location when they detect human/animal/vehicle. What is the best way to command this PTZ to go to it's home position if it doesn't detect anything in the areas the spotter cams commanded it to? Is there a built in command within...

    YouTubeTV and streaming prices

    They've completely lost sight of what they started out to be. Now just as bad as any cable TV service. Adding in all these channels that no one wants or watches then jacking up prices. What I paid when I started off with YTTV in 2018: Then a little more than a year later: The about a year...
