    Daylight Savings. How did everyone's cameras do?

    Thanks that was real helpful and I was unaware of these issues (have been pretty absent here lately) I managed to get the PTZ working by switch from ONVIF XML to Dahua New V4

    Daylight Savings. How did everyone's cameras do?

    I had one camera misconfigured and didn't do the shift. All the others made the change fine. My big PTZ SD8C845FG-HNF did the change fine, but has locked up and won't accept PTZ commands through the web interface. This happened the last DST also, so I am guessing it is a bug. I had to...

    Crappy footage of a Meteorite and explosion last night, now I need FOVs for the sky...

    I did one of these as a weathercam and there is now are burn in arcs where the sun travels through the sky. They are only seen at night best with a new moon.

    Discovered more fried devices: Lost a Sonos speaker plugged in at the kitchen which was close to the tree. Speaker will not power on at all. This was plugged into a TPlink wifi switch which is fine. Other speakers closer to the tree are fine Also lost one of two Dakota driveway sensors which...

    Update: That lightning arced about 300 feet across the street and hit a tree in our front yard. Lost a port on the router and an outdoor outdoor motion detector. Cameras survived.

    Lightning hit our neighbors roof last night. She said they were sitting around the fireplace when they heard an explosion that knocked one of their family members literally across the room. He couldn't hear anything after. Started a fire which was quickly put out due to quick response from...

    Review: IDahua DH-ITC-437-PW6M-IZ-GN / LPR-437 - ALPR/ANPR - Traffic & Access Control Camera

    I was wondering the same thing. The 437 is now back online. I did notice entire dahua site was offline for over a day about a week ago. I suspect they had lost data and are slowly trying to restore their website. No word from andy despite tagging him here...

    People can mask USPS AI detections

    Thanks for the pointers. I've got it set up the way I like it. Learning curve on how to implement sqlite queries to get what I wanted. Had to use curl to create the png image of the grafana panel to place into HomeSeer.

    People can mask USPS AI detections

    Getting closer. I was not smart enough to use my existing database to create the chart, so I redid it with time columns of each hour. I have HomeSeer increment the count for each vehicle passing. I still need to add daily, weekly and monthly totals. Haven't figured out how to add multiple...

    People can mask USPS AI detections

    I thought I'd try something similar. I setup vehicle counting on my street cam using ipcam-general model. This is working well. I then set up pushing data to HomeSeer via MQTT which is working well. I set up an sqlite database on the HomeSeer box and have Date and AI memo for each vehicle...

    IPC-Color4K-T is switching to "day" profile even without a "Time Plan Setting"

    There’s a bug on my PTZ. Won’t switch to night if camera set to 12 hr time. If you have that then set to 24 hr time.

    Review: IDahua DH-ITC-437-PW6M-IZ-GN / LPR-437 - ALPR/ANPR - Traffic & Access Control Camera

    Was trying to look at the manual and spec on Dahua site. Seems this camera has been pulled off their website. Is it discontinued? @EMPIRETECANDY can you post the spec sheet and manual?

    Change Day Schedule on Dahua IP Camera via Dahua API

    If you know vb.net take a look at my script. It creates three perfect blocks daily with no gaps and adjusts each according to sunrise and sunset. that pic was posted in July

    That is cool. I did not know about that directional thing. I have been experimenting with motion detection both on the camera and with BI and have not been happy with the results so far. I have not tried BI motion zones yet. Will have to give it a go. My driveway is at a 45 degree angle...

    Change Day Schedule on Dahua IP Camera via Dahua API

    I am interested how you got the username: password authentication to work with a single http statement. I tried using Http directly through Blue Iris, then tried VB.net script using HomeSeer without any luck. Didn't think to escape the blank or the &. Nice! I ended up having to use a more...

    Change Day Schedule on Dahua IP Camera via Dahua API

    @Alaska Country I think I know why you are seeing the error with the Night settings. It's partly my fault because I forgot to add that you MUST first set the number of time blocks you want each month in the time settings manually. Once they are set, then the api commands work. I assume you...

    This is my MQTT payload: { "plate":"&PLATE", "AlertImgPath":"&ALERT_PATH", "Alert_AI":"&MEMO", "Date":"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S","Camera":"&NAME" } Received message only has the NOW HIRING as the plate. I am not saving messages on my MQTT listener so I suppose there is the possibility that two were...

    I got two readings on this alert. Only sent one via MQTT. I received "NOW HIRING" alert not the plate. Any way to fix/avoid this?

    Ooops! Not Expecting that framing - help please!

    I’m guessing you couldn’t come straight down from the ceiling for some reason. You won’t even notice that conduit after a couple of months. Good job

    Reset camera vs Restart camera vs Reboot camera

    I am having connections issues on a PtP ubiquiti wireless connection. When the remote cameras lose contact for a minute and the connection comes back, one or two random cameras dont reset their connection with Blue Iris and I am seeing no video or only one stream connected with a yellow...
