    PTZ control quit working with SD4A425DB-HNY

    Actually, you seem to have guessed right in 2023. This appears to not be the first time it has happened. This is what sparked my thought that it might be date related. https://ipcamtalk.com/threads/ptz-controls-suddenly-stopped-working.73085/post-808297

    Gunshot Detection?

    As someone said in a subsequent post, real bullets leaving a muzzle have a ultrasonic component that fireworks and blanks won't. Funny enough, at the range today, the guy in the next bay over had a suppressed AR. That made more of a thump noise than what is typical. Probably wasn't running...

    PTZ control quit working with SD4A425DB-HNY

    Setting the camera date to March 10 seems to correct the issue. I'm attaching a video of my screen showing the issue happening when the camera date is March 9. Appears that the problem begins at 00:00 UTC on March 9. Looking at a packet capture - attached - the time is expressed in UTC between...

    PTZ control quit working with SD4A425DB-HNY

    This is some sort of a weird bug related to date. I have two totally separate BI systems. One of them has a bunch of cameras including nine PTZs of different flavors. Two different types of Andy PTZs - the older ones and the current ones - and several different Axis cameras. PTZ quit working on...

    Periodic Blue Iris app crash upon opening RTSP stream from BI

    I've had this issue for a while. I've had Blue Iris support look into it, but they were unable to resolve it. Primarily because they couldn't duplicate it, though I would think that the fault offset being consistent would give a clue as to what is going wrong. What is happening is that...

    what would cause image to distort?

    That's a good catch. Get on the camera and try forcing B&W / Color along with IR cut a few times. See if the strip moves or goes away.

    PTZ4M-25X-PV camera PTZ resetting periodically - possible firmware bug

    Been running DH firmware since yesterday afternoon and no spontaneous resets. Got a message from Andy to try updating the PTZ FW. The link he sent for the updated FW actually appears to be the same version as WAS on the camera. The version from DH is slightly newer, and as I said seems to have...

    Reolink NVR - max cable length 260 ft?

    Maybe a little late, but... any legitimate network cable will be "pure" copper. What you have can be easily confirmed with multi-meter. If you have the whole box of 1000 ft, short one of the pairs on one end and measure the resistance of that pair from the other end. A 24 awg pair will be 51.34...

    PTZ4M-25X-PV camera PTZ resetting periodically - possible firmware bug

    I defaulted it a few times. That's why I couldn't show the logs from Tuesday into Wednesday. So.... I needed a camera that would not do the periodic PTZ reset, so I ordered a Valucam that looks very much like the prior one sold here. We'll see when that gets here. But, since this one was going...

    PTZ4M-25X-PV camera PTZ resetting periodically - possible firmware bug

    Yes... it did it at 13:53. Likely a bug of some kind. 2 Username: System Time: 2024-07-25 13:53:21 Type: PTZ Operation Contents: {Channel:0 No.:1 PTZ Function:PowerUp PTZ Operation Type:Go to Preset }

    PTZ4M-25X-PV camera PTZ resetting periodically - possible firmware bug

    Purchased a PTZ4M-25X-PV. I've had it outside testing prior to install on top of a tall building. I noticed over the past couple of days that it would periodically go to the power-up preset. Looking in the logs, it says "PowerUp PTZ Operation Type:Go to Preset". This is not the same set of...

    Image stabilization on PTZ4M-25X-PV not useful

    Thanks for that. I'll give that a try. As far as my clarification that I was talking about EIS, I absolutely understand that you know what EIS is. I was just making sure that that I didn't misstate what problem I was seeing. Also found something else on this camera that I'll make a separate...

    Image stabilization on PTZ4M-25X-PV not useful

    2D and 3D NR affects the EIS? What I am talking about is where the camera uses the extra image space around the edges to simulate holding the lens and sensor in the same place on the image. Imagine the camera on a pole. Wind blows the pole slightly back and forth, but the motion isn't visible on...

    Image stabilization on PTZ4M-25X-PV not useful

    Recently purchased a PTZ4M-25X-PV. This is the replacement for SD49425XB-HNR. I have a number of cameras scattered around cities and beaches. I've installed several SD49425XB-HNR cameras, and so far they are working well. Unfortunately, that's been discontinued, and the replacement is...
