Getting the hang of it

I have tired ever setting in BI PTZ/Control for Dahua cameras none of them will control the PTZ. I have also tried ONIF (OXML)

The PTZ works fine in the Dahua GUI. The camera is a Dahua x-pans.

Maybe BI is sending the controls to the wrong camera? As both cams have the same IP, i don't know how you would separate the two.

Any suggestions?
 
Take a look in the camera settings on the Video Tab, click on Configure, look at the setting for Cam#: it is my understanding that might work to select a different cameras number on the same device, worth a try anyway!

So in theory you should be able to see both cameras separately by making a clone of the one camera and set the camera number differently for each one!

I've been using and change the channel# for the other cam.

/cam/realmonitor?channel=2&subtype=0
 
So you switch the camera view on one camera to use the other view, if so why no just create a second camera and you can see both at the same time!
 
^This.

Any camera with more than one "camera" can just be added with the same IP address and then select the appropriate Cam# in either the cam box or the main/sub stream dropdowns.
