    Amcrest IP5M-T1179EW-28MM vs Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE - angle of view comparison

    Amcrest IP5M-T1179EW-28MM vs Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-ZE I have both of these cameras. I couldn't pass up the Amazon deal for the Amcrest at $55 vs. $170 for the Dahua so I pulled the trigger on it. Overall, I have been pleased with it for my needs but the field of view seems to be seriously lacking...

    BI app does not connect within network. Connects outside of network fine.

    This problem seemed to pop up a couple weeks ago.

Credentials and log in info has not changed. I have triple checked IP...

    Samsung TV with Tizen Broswer viewing BI web page

    Any thoughts as to why I'm getting the undefined: MEDIA_ERR_DECODE message when trying to view the blue Iris web portal? See attached pictures. It works on my other browsers and hoping to get this Samsung TV working with this. Thanks

    Blue iris will not install? x64 System cannot find the file specified.

    Thanks all. Unfortunately, I can't tell you what the answer was because I changed two things at once. I reinstalled windows 10 and downloaded via IE instead of Chrome, which it then installed fine. I'm guessing it was likely the chrome download throwing something off. Hope this helps someone in...

    Running as administrator didn't work either. May try reinstalling windows here. I tried to run windows repair and it was unsuccessful for some reason.

    Setting up my first security system

    FYI - just following up for others that may see this post. I loaded a USB drive with Windows 10 via the windows creation tool and it installed windows 10 pro no problem. Didn't even have to enter the key - must have been on the bios of the motherboard. I don't get why the ebay seller (which...

    Setting up my first security system

    Thanks guys. I pulled the trigger on this one - has warranty until October 25, 2020 and has only be in use for a little over a year per the service tag.

    Setting up my first security system

    First post here.. I've probably spent 50-100 hours reading wikis and threads here. Have my first 5231R-ZE Dahua ready to go and started playing with it. Now need a computer to run blue iris. Looking at this one that looks good to me. Anybody see any red flags that I should consider a different...
