    Looking for an IP cam with automatic sensor light built-in

    The problem is that only her face would be visible above the fence, so detecting a dog would also be a failsafe in case the AI detection misses her.

    Looking for an IP cam with automatic sensor light built-in

    He's mostly an inside dog, so the light would ostensibly only come on while he's outside at night (not that often).

    Looking for an IP cam with automatic sensor light built-in

    Motion Detection is out of the question, sorry. It will be placed in a backyard with lots of bushes/trees, ie. As soon as there is a strong breeze or rain event, it will spit notifications. His NVR doesn't have pet detection built in, so it has to be on the camera.

    Looking for an IP cam with automatic sensor light built-in

    Hey guys, I'm looking for a good low light 5MP/4K PoE camera (either bullet or turret) which has a built in light which can be set to turn on/off based on AI detection of humans or pets. My dad has a unique situation where his neighbour -- who is an elderly lady with schizophrenia -- routinely...

    Dahua NVR -- where to set pre-recording seconds for IVS rule

    Almost one year later and still not fixed. This is really frustrating because it means I'm forced to disable general recording (which I want at a lower resolution), just to be able to see in full res what happened a few seconds earlier. Has anyone come up with a workaround or solution? Or do you...

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    The video Andy linked said specifically that SMD is a 'filter' for MD. Whenever I enable IVS, it triggers the alarm sound on my cameras for some reason, even though I have it unchecked as per my screenshot in the OP.

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    Thanks, I've followed this entire video, and turned acupick off and enabling AI mode, but even though I have enabled motion detection and SMD on all channels for humans, I still don't see any 'blue' intelligence recordings, it's all just green for general recording. What am I doing wrong?

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    The camera unfortunately only has 720p for SS 3. SS 1 and 2 only have up to 480p :-\

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    Ok I can confirm it doesn't. There doesn't seem to be any recording info under SS for that channel now. Damn. Is there any other way to have the NVR pick up on this feed? It's a Dahua varifocal cam.

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    Done. I have one camera that only has mainstream and substream 3 enabled (SS 3 is the only way to get 720p recording out of it). Will this still pick it up?

    Does this look right? This is for all cameras and 7 days.

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    Another question: Should the PoE indicators be red? I'm getting live feeds successfully from all cameras, and they're all plugged into the inbuilt PoE ports.

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    Thanks! I'll give it a go. I've already tried that trick with enabling IE in Win 11, but the performance is SLOW. Just navigating different pages within the NVR UI is incredibly laggy, and even when viewing video previous in the IVS screen for example, scrolling down requires that the browser...

    NVR16CH-16P-2AI - any tutorials?

    Hey guys, So I bought my mother a NVR16CH-16P-2AI with 5 Dahua cameras. I'm running it headless as I'll be managing it from her workstation in her study. There is an 8TB WD Purple installed. I got it working to the point where I have initialized the cameras and I can see the live feeds, but I'm...

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    Oh my bad. I didn't realize you meant that they're running two parallel systems.

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    Thanks, but you said you got your folks an Arlo system. Which Arlo system do you consider to have good enough low light performance? Can you share the one you got for them?

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    What also cameras/NVRs would you recommend? Can they also have a Eufy doorbell added?

    Definitely not running BI lol.

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    Wouldn't this defeat the purpose if those cameras are trash at taking identifiable images?

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    Sorry you misunderstand. Her BEDROOM is on the second floor. The camera will be located on top of the garage door on the ground floor, directly UNDER her bedroom window

    Thanks, but you'll probably get crucified for this post lol. What cameras did you buy?

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    All good points, thank you. However one of them is going directly below her bedroom window on the second floor. She doesn't want a constant light, and she likes to sleep with the window open on warm nights. Mothers, amirite? I know that the white LEDs are not meant to light up an area, but if...

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    Thanks. I might get a couple, but at a bare minimum, I do require the spotlight functionality in at least two locations.

    Which cams are these?

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    Damn. Deter, yes. but identify within ~ 6ft is critical, and the functionality to use it as a 'smart floodlight sensor' is important too. Are there maybe other brands of cams/NVRs that are worth looking into?

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    I really need these installed before Christmas. Are the 1/2.7" sensors bad low light performance at 4MP? There are street lamps and the cams themselves will be set up so that the white LED turns on when people are detected. My concern is that these models have a tiny white LED so I'm not sure if...

    Thanks buddy, very helpful! Just wondering when I'll be able to get my hands on some then.

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    Thank you. Shame it's currently sold out. Was hoping to take advantage of the sale :-\ @EMPIRETECANDY could you please tell me when you are getting more stock of these? Some questions about that model. We don't like the blue/red flashing lights. Can these be disabled? Also, can I set the cam...

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    Thanks. Where is the 4MP one on his store? Can't find anything using 'TIOC-PRO' in the search. Also, it looks like his cameras/NVRs only support SMD Plus, not SMD 4.0. Is this true?

    Need NVR + 7x IP cams + 1x doorbell cam. What would you do?

    It's a very simple set up. She doesn't have a large front yard. Maybe 26ft across including a single car driveway. I don't even necessarily want to get the street, just the sidewalk in front of her property. For all intents and purposes, the driveway is the front yard. Two cameras in this spot...
