    Panoramic PTZ

    Those lines are still terrible, I'm surprised you capture anyone. It will probably miss people not on the pavement nearest and even then I'm surprised it triggered on those. If they can pass behind the lines, they won't trigger it. They need to be grounded. You're still thinking 2D. eg. I'd...

    Should I remove my front gate?

    Awkward when Amazon deliver a sofa........ In all seriousness, it will look better without. IT just depends on your neighbourhood which only you know. As I posted previously on here it is possible to get some very high security "oridnary" doors with ultra strong multipoint shoot bolts, steel...

    Blue Iris Windows 11 or Windows Server?

    No key appears locked into Windows hardware anymore. Windows Keys have been universal for some time. Only difference is between the version ie pro etc. ie each version has it's own key. Millions of people appear to have the same key therefore.

    Can I use my wireless solar cams with BI?

    You can do that anyway by setting up remote access to BI via a VPN (not the paid for type but the type built into a router).

    Electric Utility removes camera

    What happened to the camera? Have you got another one, or was it trash? :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: Imagine the irony, their own camera re-appears 4 doors away watching THEIR home.

    That camera must be right on the runway.

    Getting JPG from fast moving object

    You do realise that CCTV cameras don't produce pictures you can zoom into well? (A PTZ can but only because it optically zooms in before the capture not into the final picture). If you take a picture using a regular wide angle camera, then there's virtually no chance of it ever being anything...

    New 5MP Starvis 2 sensor announced

    Only issue is it's not 4k. 5mp almost certainly means it's going to be 1080P (4mp after binning).

    Orllo z10 cam- Blue iris

    Have you manually selected the stream profiles from the drop down? In the 1st screenshot they don't look right and in the 2nd screenshot no address is selected at all.

    Struggling to know what to look for!

    Maybe buy 2 decent cameras from the recommended list, and save up the difference to replace the 3rd later down the line. Sometimes it's buy cheap regret later.

    Struggling to know what to look for!

    IP Cam talk has a store which is Empire Tech. Empire Tech also has a store on Amazon. Empire Tech is mostly re-branded Dahua (I think he stocks the odd Hikvision) if you wanted to do the Dahua route instead - even then they sell a range of cameras so you might want to bear in mind the commentary...

    Networking Gurus - getting around a lack of a VPN

    Thanks I'll make a note of that. I thought VPN's were banned in the UK but apparently the ban hasn't gone through yet and is being altered all the time. I couldn't understand how Tailscale was going to get through my hardware router's firewall being sat behind it and I didn't want it opening...

    Networking Gurus - getting around a lack of a VPN

    Thanks and sorry for this question as a lot to try and read on Tailscale's web page. Is this a VPN using an external server and VPN network? The client sits on the PC, communicates with a VPN server which then helps encrypt the traffic and route it? If so it's probably illegal in the UK as the...

    Networking Gurus - getting around a lack of a VPN

    I changed a while ago to Fibre to the Premises due to a deal that made it cheaper than my regular Broadband. However, I have to use the ISP's Router as they won't offer any tech support to anyone using their own router. The trouble is, as with all ISP's, they're cut down even by basic standards...

    UK Heat Wave Often Rubbished but...

    Not hard to disprove it's not propoganda when the thermometer says 40 C. In fact it's so hot the gritters are out spreading granite dust on the roads as the tarmac is becoming liquid as road temperatures are hitting over 155F: Kids captured this on video next to an excavation cover:

    Amazon Driver Throws My Package

    Probably the product of allowing your mail man / paper delivery boy to throw the newspapers / mail. Over here, they have to walk up to your front door and put it in your letter box. I just hope the parcel wasn't breakable.

    Is thermal right for me?

    Just be aware, thermal will only serve to let you know someone is there. It's useless for identification. It needs to be paried with either an IR or Colour Night camera depending on the amount of light available to enable identification should the person come closer in. The OP showed that full...

    UK Heat Wave Often Rubbished but...

    I think the trouble is UK homes are designed to keep heat in. They're made of brick that absorbs and then gives heat back later like an oven, a typical loft has to have 11 inches of low emission insulation by law trapping the heat in. A house used to be built with cavity walls - 2 layers of...

    UK Heat Wave Often Rubbished but...

    Thought I'd post this as we're currently in a 40 C heat wave and many from other hot countries rubbish it and say they have this every week. Well hear it from a few people who've moved to the UK: From an Indian Citizen (Interesting as I work with 3 Indians from different parts of the Indian...

    Dahua Camera Times - How close from Cam to Cam?

    With not date or time at all, how do you prove the offence? The accused could just say it was me but on another day. Then the evidence doesn't relate to the offence in question so there's no evidence as he's been charged with the wrong offence. (It might result in them later being re-arrested...

    Dahua Camera Times - How close from Cam to Cam?

    Surely not having the time and date is equally a problem in proving the video relates to the offence in question. I guess you'd have to ask an Attorney as to what's best. Personally, I always get BI to overlay any information as then it's uniform over all cameras. You're never going to get...

    Putting two new cameras online soon... settings question

    A simple tip: If you're worried about not being able to remember thje settings, screenshot every setting page and save the screenshots then you have a reference manual. If the picture or something else isn't great, you can always tweak from there. It gives you the backup you're looking for...
