Toys, toys, toys!!! I heard myself say to my wife a couple weeks ago that I think we have all the cameras we'll need. And then I bought another one. Followed by thinking of a couple other places to put more........ Really, I wasn't looking for another hobby...

That crossed my mind, but I succeeded before I got to that option. Thanks.

So I'm learning. Thanks.

I read this after I tried some other stuff. I unplugged the net cable from the POE switch - made no difference. I re-installed the version of FW I put everywhere - made no difference. I went to the device (with ladder, in the snow, cold tools, cold hands, whine, whine, whine...) and pushed the...

Now that I've reconfigured all my cameras, I notice that zoom will work on all but one - the one I commented on above where reconfiguring made no difference. Progress! On the one that behaves differently, the output from Find/Inspect is claiming "Bad response" after the "Requesting device...

Thanks. I'll reconfigure all my cameras with the results of Find/Inspect.

I did the "find inspect" originally, but since Make = Dahua was available, I decided to use that because I thought getting as specific to my actual camera as possible would be better then using the generic settings. I reran "find inspect" and accepted it's values this time. While the settings...

I've turned off the PTZ controls, and the larger images are quite nice. A single developer, very cool!

Thanks for taking the time to help, I greatly appreciate it! From where I'm sitting, the live audio issue sounds strange. But, at least there wasn't pilot error on my part... For one camera, I believe that I do not have motion rectangles selected either, but I still get them. I wonder what I...

I am still new to all this fun and the learning continues, but have hit a couple of issues with Blue Iris (5.3.8.5 x64 - 1/16/2021) that are befuddling me. I’d appreciate any insight that you might provide. Additional background that might be relevant: 5 IPC-T5442T-ZE cameras running...

I used the Find/Inspect button in BI and ended up with the Generic model. Zoom/audio worked, just not at the best video resolution. Changing the model finally gave me the full resolution. I thought about the sub-stream angle, but the camera claims that the sub-stream is 704x480. Things seem...

Solved it - silly pilot error, BI detected that make was simply ONVIF. Once I changed that to Duhua, all seems to be behaving the way I thought. Thanks.

Hello! I’m a rookie to all this fun stuff and after trying a Lorex system (I really didn’t need another hobby and was hoping that turn-key would work for me), I returned it and decided I really wanted to have more control & options than what they provided. So, based on advice from this forum...
