ouch! My auto door is pretty good about stopping for something like that. Nobody needs to see 45 min of chicken kill video. What camera are you using in the coop?

Mine didn't end so well....45 min of a fox in the run....and 6 dead chickens later.

I flashed a few times with no luck. So then I re-downloaded and flashed again and no luck. Then I reset to factory defaults AGAIN and now it's working. Just posting this here for others.

I just updated and having problems with the live view on latest version of chrome and edge. Also the old NACL plugin will not let me login. I was able to use internet explorer to see a live view though. Odd. EDIT: I had to do everything twice to get it to work. First time was attempt...

Apparently I'm going to be the Guinea pig on this one. Upgrade went very fast. However two small problems. 1. Live preview does NOT work for me in latest version of Chrome or Edge. 2. Using the old NACL plugin I can not login. I get an error message that says "Failed to login the plugin!"...

A little bit more work...but might make those 26 runs easier. Can you get a really good accurate measurement for the longest line you have to run? If so...pre cut all 26 and pull them all at once if you can. Or Beer/Pizza and friends :-)

1. No. It for centralization of those lines and a single management point. I don't see troubleshooting changing much. 2. Yes it would/should easily handle the traffic (That I could imagine one to have in a house) fine. If you have physical constraints to running the wire that's another story...

If it was me, homeruns for sure!! I'd also run twice as many as you think you'll need. Running cable in new builds is so easy and flexible...that for the cost of the cable do it now! Even if you don't wall plate/terminate them all...at least they are there. Just number/mark them. For your...

Is there any way to roll back to 2.623 from 2.8? I thought once you went to 2.8 there was no rolling back?

Mine is outside during our long and cold winters and has held up fine....I think. The only thing I swear is going on is the image is getting darker over time...but I don't have a good way to prove that. Mine is setup in the back field and generally only auto tracks deer and other animals in...

The technology that's available now is fun to mess around with. I did this with some python scripts and the sighthound API a few years ago. Had it tuned pretty good to then go through my home automation system to handle the alerts and tracking of the same vehicle. It worked great for eliminating...

So I think what I have been seeing is a gradual change. Meaning the image wasn't only like this and it didn't happen over night. I've thought it was looking dark but finally I can really tell. Yes plastic film is off. I've had this camera working great I might add for almost 2 years I think. I...

In addition to trying both those things I also played with other exposure settings and brightness. Turning up the brightness just washed everything out. I haven't changed these settings for over a year. Is it possible something is wrong with the camera?

Picture settings: style: standard All settings from Brightness to Gamma at factory 50 Exposure settings: Anti-flicker: Outdoor Mode: Auto exposure comp 25 Backlight WDR - 30 I'm using basically the same settings as my other 2mp starlights

I have a Dahua PTZ SD59225U-HNI . It's picture has been seemingly dark. Something I think I've noticed but not really paid much attention to until today. Even though most of the scene is snow. The image is very dark compared to my other cams (5231s).
