Yes, literally everything in this price bracket that isn't Hikvision is made by Dahua, The difference e is the software.

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32905690146.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.56114c4difWKYL These are the cameras I've been using, the 720p 48v one, covers about as much area in IR light as the 150w security light I used to have to use with my PTZ cameras. The ad says these are 720p but they are...

Bringing back an old thread to inject my 2 cents. I ran into this problem with my PTZ cameras, none of them came with IR LEDs built in. I was going to do the 12v converter method with a 12v illimunator, but then I remembered, I had bought a junk 1MP $17 camera off aliexpress one time that had...

Amazon doubled its profit during a pandemic They seem to be doing alright.

In his defence, that tree is wearing a ghillie suit.

Most of my cameras only have i-frame intervals measured in seconds from 1 to 5 seconds, playing around with it does have an effect, for example if I set the i-frame interval to 5s and I set to h.254, HD, 2048 Kbps, CBR, 5 fps, I only see a pulse about every 5 seconds, but if I keep everything...

Did you do all this on each camera or do you have a way to set the encoding on the recorded video separately on your DVR?

I've tried every combo of bitrate, framerate and encoding available on the cameras, it doesn't seem to matter. I can't find anything to modify on the NVR that would apply to the recorded streams.

Ok thanks, this video is crystal clear in the live view of it though, both in ivms-4200 and browsing with chrome. I guess the processor is just losing something in the writing to hard disk. I think this started happening after I added the last couple of cameras to that machine.

You don't see what looks like noise in the entire frame once per second at 1080p?

If you select 1080p on vimeo it looks just like the original

I tried that but the youtube processor mostly removed the effect.

Here is a sample of what it looks like. https://www.dropbox.com/s/hqj6dnq8s80v539/192.168.112.89_03_20200214135210661.mp4?dl=0

Hi everyone, I hope someone has run into this before. I've noticed that on playback of recordings of cameras in my Hikvision DS-9632NI-i8, the video is not as good as the original stream was, it appears to pixelate/pulsate every second on the keyframe. I can't see anywhere in the NVR settings...

I built out with hikvision so I'm mostly stuck with it, but I have recently been trying out a Watchnet 4 camera system, and I have to say their software seems much cleaner and their tech support got back to me right away by email when I had a question.
