Got it. Thanks.

I am trying to find out if this is possible in case it was wonky to have a really wide view on 16:9 screens. I would still get the advantage of only needing 1 cam and 1 cable run, then just separate the views from each other, but I can't find anything that says any of these cams have that...

Thanks. We tried some tools to fit that, but they didn't work. I have the one that came with it around here somewhere, will have to find and try.

Are you referring to the one at the front of the camera or the one set inside the body at the back?

How do you remove this camera from where it's mounted? I should have the manual around somewhere, but I don't know where and I can't find any. The links in the first post don't work.

I know some firmware is being released for the dahua. With that or anything before it, has this correct aspect ratio at full resolution issue ever been resolved?

I can work with that, but what if you are running Linux? Are you just screwed? My current Dahua's started working much better after a firmware update years ago with Chrome/etc, but what are the limitations on non IE browsers for this camera?

What if you don't have Internet Explorer?

That I do not know, but I can tell you it reads the button press instantly.

There is already an integration that can read the doorbell presses in HA. I use it. Works great.

I didn't mean it was completely unusable. It's just known to be problematic for many and not the best connection method to the cameras. You could be having issues and may not be noticing them, which means they may or may not matter much for you. Unless you are monitoring the feeds constantly...

My understanding of Reolink cameras is to never use RTSP, period, unless you have to. HTTP FLV over RTMP is the way to go with specific arguments in place if possible also.

Are you able to do HTTP FLV streams from within Blue Iris? I've read those are best with Reolink cams. That uses RTMP, although I am not sure what the difference is between regular RTMP and HTTP FLV using RTMP.

Regarding multiple streams to the camera, there is actually a piece of software called go2rtc that alleviates such issues. I don't know how everyone used their cameras or what things may or may not work well with it, but for my usage of it there isn't anything off hand that I'm aware of that...

Yea, it's as if they planned it, but didn't complete it. I read about it from someone who beta tested the integration here.
