    Mini-Review - 5442-ZE-S3 AKA T54IR-ZE-S3 - Replacement to 5442-ZE

    Do you know why the image settings on the live screen are different from the image settings on the camera tab? Does yours do this?

    Mini-Review - 5442-ZE-S3 AKA T54IR-ZE-S3 - Replacement to 5442-ZE

    Thanks @wittaj, I've had my T54IR-ZE-S3 up for a couple weeks and overall I like it. I'm disappointed in the IR. It seems very hot spot towards the bottom of the frame rather than dispersed. In the location I have the camera I can actually turn the IR off, customized scene, run 20ms, B/W, and...

    Recommendation for Equipment for 24 Simultaneous Cameras with Recording.

    Any mainstreams I pull are 2MP, any substream I pull (if the camera has the option) is 2MP or less. 12 cameras run 33% CPU of Intel Core i5 9600K. I just haven't gotten around to moving to BI5 yet.

    Recommendation for Equipment for 24 Simultaneous Cameras with Recording.

    @wittaj I don't want to hijack the thread, so just for clarification, your recommendation to turn off HA is applicable to Blue Iris 5 only, correct? Because it utilizes dual streams. What is your recommendation for Blue Iris 4 users?

    EmpireTech 2023 Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday Sales Nov.20-24th

    So this will be the first time I am interested in participating, I have purchased many cameras from Andy. Because of this, I do not need to purchase a camera to purchase tickets, correct? But if I purchase cameras, I will receive extra tickets. Am I reading this all correct?

    Firmware QCN8026B QSee IP HD Camera

    I won't attach to the post, I don't think that's allowed, but I will work on putting them someplace and DM you the link. I'll try to get this done in the next day or so. I'll leave that link active for a week.

    Firmware QCN8026B QSee IP HD Camera

    I have these files archived from my very first Costo Q-See kit system. I don't think the kit came with the 8026B, but I "upgraded" a couple times and know I owned a couple 8026b at one time, before moving to Dahua and Blue Iris. I know that Dahau was the OEM for Q-See cameras. I honestly do...

    Comparison between PTZs - the 49225 versus 49425 versus Mini-PTZ - mailbox checker

    If one were so inclined to move up to the $500-800 class device, would the SD5A425GA-HNR being 4MP on 1/1.8 sensor, be the go to option, as well as better IR distance?

    Best way to plug 5/8 inch holes from pre-terminated cat5 cable runs?

    I used these for the cable coming out of the soffit to the camera mount location. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000T13DBS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1
