    If you had this set up what would you use ?

    What you just said there in turns of complete black I didn't know but I had read about the color situation - so this is the point of this thread really, you guys have experience and knowledge I'm not going to get to grips with or learn in just a few days or weeks. In this circumstance and given...

    If you had this set up what would you use ?

    I was looking at similar on the forum earlier and in the post I read someone mentioned they run hot. I'm assuming these are for the camera end of the chain and you split there ? - Vegas gets hot, like we hit over 120 degrees last summer hot so I have to take that into consideration too :)

    If you had this set up what would you use ?

    Yes I was just interested in what the camera was :) . I don't really need the plate id tbh, it's a gated community that has cameras reading every plate that comes in - but lets face it, most criminals (at least here in Vegas) are either taking plates off or using fake ones. I need to maximise...

    If you had this set up what would you use ?

    Yep, appreciate and am aware of the restrictions I have with the set-up tbh. Running more cabling up 3 floors is not something I can do so I'm trying to make the best of what I have available. Trust me, I've spent hours reading the wiki pages on here and have learned lots and it does seem that...

    If you had this set up what would you use ?

    Hi folks This house was pre-wired to 4 positions, not overly ideal from the previous owners but hey ho. You can see from my perfectly drawn world leading diagram where the POE positions are located. All are at 8ft. The back yard is small but we want to be able to see whoever jumps over the wall...

    Contemplating Blue Iris and have a question about PC location

    yep we have them in every room, I'll have to check the labels, surely they must be labelled !!! That would help massively if I could just do that. Thanks for the reply

    Contemplating Blue Iris and have a question about PC location

    ok makes sense. So I guess I then just remote into the PC via wifi as and when and if required then. OK, good info, super helpful. Thanks @wittaj

    Contemplating Blue Iris and have a question about PC location

    So, I have to go directly from the POE switch into the PC via ethernet rather than through the router ?

    Contemplating Blue Iris and have a question about PC location

    The PC gets used sparingly for other things so it's not practical. What do you mean by headless ? I'm a complete noob :wtf:

    Contemplating Blue Iris and have a question about PC location

    Hi Folks Brand new to the whole idea of cameras etc but I'm really interested in a B.I setup but have a question regarding set up. The house is pre-wired with the POE switch terminating in the walk in closet where the router is. Putting the PC in there is a non starter (I have an existing...
