Thanks, Malbers. ...never thought of it. I think I will find this very useful. Cheers. Jim

Thanks, bp... Very similar to Donuts ...and I understand 'dialing down the iris' type move. The license reference was an exaggeration, as we are lead to imagine these systems can nearly type the DNA of passers-by. I'd rather be able to watch the deer and fox wander the property ..and keep...

My camera is pointed to a curve in my lane back into my property. It is the first time we have had a surprise guest (wrong house..) in years. They drove in with their brights on and it was as if a tactical nuke went off on the property. There was no automatic adjustment/compensation...

Took the dog out - middle of the night. I wear a headlamp so I don't fall down the steps. There was a 'rain-fog' - neither quite. It photographs well, however. Skips were in the 2-4sec range. ...I have a problem: the Screech owl sleeps days: I will probably have to get my headlamp...

Copy - the 'so-called' WP connector seems to not be so much, even with the best 3M tape. I have one of those black, tubular thingys that is almost the size of the camera. Big rain sweeping the Eastcoast on Tues. should provide a clue. Thanks. Jim

Thanks, Fenderman... Sorry, for the delay - we don't have cable out in the bush. (<100mi from the Whitehouse). 'Understand - most. I don't understand 'main frame rate' - I only set the frame rate on the NVR menu with my mouse. I do not seem to have access to a menu for the camera itself...

I have one DH4631C attached to a Dahua NVR 4104 ... that stutters. The clock will march along, and then - skip 2-3 seconds during daylight ...perhaps 10-12 seconds after dark is the norm. Bugs look like shooting stars leaving a tail on screen. I set the bit rate to 25 (the max). I am not...

We had a Woody come visit during the day... My wife heard the tapping because this cam has a microphone. She snagged a couple of pics. Jim

Mole and D.... I am kind of a tool hound. I work in fabric, so I got LOTSA tools ...I dabble in wood and metal, so I have some of that stuff - saws, grinders, welders, etc ...and even a couple of electrical specific tools. ....but, I have found places like Amazon and Harbor Freight great...

I have been kind of rolling naked in cactus with my NVR, camera and cable issues. I've had lotsa 'No Link' (..or is it Data?) issues. I finally get a POE setup to work and a G-D mouse chews the cable. And of course - that's not the first thing you think of after having numerous other...

Bluebirds are cool, Tony. Mine few stay in the front pasture - too far to run cable. I was thinking about trying Martins again because a cam could be pretty active... 'Once you got them; you have them for life' ...I thought. The GD Starlings plagued the house I put up ...I got rid of...

Technically, this is a Wood Duck box. I mounted about 4 of them in my marsh a few years ago, but the DNR has done better on the other side of the creek; I repurposed the boxes. Previously, I had an HIK cam mounted just below the box but have gone thru two cams because of corrosion within the...

'Stupid idea', fenderman... reminds me of the MS-DOS guys making fun of us who simply wanted to use Photoshop and not get bogged down on 'command lines' (whatever they are). My first Mac was about 1985. We run about 6-8 iOS devices and basically never need to look under the hood. I'm pretty...

Mine are plenty exotic for me Mat. You are right, there are some interesting streams - an airport in the Canaries, some Owl or eagle cams, etc. but I simply want more 'windows' in my house. I can understand not wanting it if I lived in the City. I pretty much do this now with a single cam...

I simply want to see. I want a 'window' that is a 4K screen, or two, in my house hanging on a wall as you would a landscape painting. I have an open pasture to the front about 300m/1,000' ...and water views on a creek about 200m/650' to the side - with dense woods between. We have many...
