    Annke FCD800 POE Dual Lens 180 degree 8MP $129 - Thoughts

    It definitely could be user error, as I've never used an annke brand camera before. Can you show me where the ivs line crossing option is? I posted the pic of what I see in the menu in my prior post. I also didn't see any online reviewers or the manual mention ivs. Thanks!

    Annke FCD800 POE Dual Lens 180 degree 8MP $129 - Thoughts

    Sorta disappointed in this camera, it lacks IVS and region crossing support. For a smart camera its pretty dumb, I havent found the FTP part of the config menu, maybe it doesnt exist. Its a fine camera for blue Iris if you just need the onvif stream and doing your own image processing. I prefer...

    Annke FCD800 POE Dual Lens 180 degree 8MP $129 - Thoughts

    Thanks for the quick response! I'm not able to upgrade mine, when I click on the folder icon through the camera web interface, no file windows pop up. Tried both Chrome and Edge browsers. Tried guarding vision SW and it says Not Upgradeable under the Firmware Upgrade section of the tool. Its...

    Annke FCD800 POE Dual Lens 180 degree 8MP $129 - Thoughts

    Hi, Where did you download the firmware from? When using your link to hikvision I don't see a firmware download link on that page. Also on the firmware pages I dont see them listing DS-2CD1T83G2P-LIUF . Thanks

    No rotate option for Hikvision DS-2CD2383G0-I

    Thanks, this got back the missing option. However, its annoying as you lose all the smart functions (IVS, intrusion detection areas, human/vehicle filtering etc.)

    That got me most of the way there. However, when looking at the stream or the recording I saw every few seconds the frames would blur and focus again. I don't have this issue on a fixed lens 5442 camera and noticed the only difference was the Smart Codec setting. Review your recordings and...

    Yes I saw that on Amazon, crazy I ordered Saturday night and delivered Sunday morning! The image quality was initially terrible for 2 reasons compared to my existing T5442s, 1. It was using VBR instead of CBR 2. It was not using smart codec. Surprised these 2 things made such a huge difference...

    Is Shinobi considered as an NVR software?

    I'm not sure where the idea Shinobi isn't lightweight or unstable has come from. I've been using it for more than a year and its been rock solid. It takes the H264 or H265 stream directly from the camera so its extremely efficient because its not doing any hardware processing unless you turn on...

    Thanks! I figured there must an obvious page I must've skipped. I didn't see it answer the other questions about alarm server or dav but I'll try some ipcamtalk search queries magic.

    So because of this thread I decided to buy this camera as an impulse purchase from Andy (love the Amazon ship speed!). I received this camera a few hours ago. I already have several Wyze, Amcrest, Reolink cameras ranging from $20 to $350 (PTZ) stuff. This was my first Dahua brand camera. This...
