    Yeah, it's most likely some cust svc person with a script. I returned mine already. Hard to even say they are a good value. I mean for the money, they are less than the mainstream Swann or lorex in alot of cases, but what you get in return some could argue doesnt even justify the savings I...

    I cant fault people who dont just want a basic low cost setup for buying them. But apparently that's all you are getting. They arent going up against anything of high quality. The part of that whole process that drives me nuts is their tech support/cust svc. They are still emailing me almost...

    Will a Dahua IPC-T5442T-ZE send push notifications without an NVR or computer software like Blue Iris?

    You should be able to download whatever app dahua uses and set up push through there if it has a provision. You should not require an nvr or software

    Is that color 4x a dahua camera? I know I saw it reviewed here somewhere, but havent been able to find which one it is online. It seems to be highly regarded so might pick up a couple and try them out too

    Oh, that's situation for sure. Infinite baffles are so hard to pull off correctly, but I'll bet they sound amazing. I've been in the same house a while, and probably gonna be here a while longer. Wife doesnt mind my projects and hobbies as much a she minds that I cant finish one before I have...

    Jealous? Are you kidding me? That rack setup is bad ass. I've only got a small wall mount. And i see we share another fondness. My emotiva sits on a generic shelf in my dungeon though. Now you are going to make me want to go spend more money

    That's beautiful. Yeah these 12th gen alder lake intels are a huge step forward. I hooked up the 3 cameras, dont have a sub stream even set up yet, just all on main streams, and can't get it to tick past 1%. But let me tell ya, trying to stream 4k to an ultrawide or a 75" sony on uhd graphics...

    So, the default exposure is 1/30. I havent gotten that far to get into alot of those settings as of yet. Work has been a bit crazy the las few days. The distance from my house to the street isnt very far. I'm not covering a large area in general. Im in suburbs of chicago now, and the distance...

    Yeah, I figured I would try out a few, and decide on one. The led on the nc800 is no different than any other I looked at. It's only on if you set it to come on. The axis is a very well built camera, plenty of features, great overall quality. But like you said it's expensive. I dont care...

    Another reolink headache

    Yeah, I've got enough ambient light around that the nc800 is very clear in color to be able to view neighbor across the street after dark. It does a rather good job even identifying people in cars and plates after dark. Which surprised me a bit. I hadnt taken into consideration the issue with...

    No, i actually took some time to look into them. My wife bought the reolink cameras as kind of a surprise since i was building a pc for blue iris. Cant fault her, I had no knowledge about cameras myself. Picked up an axis 5525, an annke nc800, and a dahua cant remeber which model. May end up...

    Same here. I think they hope that most people will be connecting to a non 4k display and wont be able to tell the difference. I returned the reolink and picked up a few different cameras, so gonna see how they look and go from there.

    Another reolink headache

    Yeah, except the bigger problem now, is I couldnt even select clear as the option. If I tried to log into camera with clear selected, I would get error message saying device doesnt support, and need to reduce resolution to get any stream at all. Same in their app. Select high as the picture...

    Another reolink headache

    If they work for your use case, and are good enough for what you need them for, have at it. But im not buying a 4k camera that isnt 4k. Pretty much that simple to ne.
