    Mysterious camera IP address problem (fixed)

    Check that the subnet mask is exactly the same also. (Most likely 255.255.255.0 if it a standard class C ip range) and also that the gateway is nnn.nnn.nnn.1 in your example

    Hidden in plain sight

    Replaced one of my old outdoor HIKs with a 5442. Decided to get some more life out of the old one and placed it inside my garage. Painted it the same colour as my tool board. Nobody seem to notice it :)

    5442+ IPC-Color4K-T strange behaviour with Blue Iris

    Thanks, I'll look into that. I dont run dual NICs because I have several buildings with ip cameras on my property. It would be hard to run cables from all cameras between buildings. I run fiber between buildings and into managed switches with sfp uplinks. All my cameras are on a separate...

    5442+ IPC-Color4K-T strange behaviour with Blue Iris

    I have a 5442 and a IPC-color4k-t along with a couple of other cameras on Blue Iris. I have them set up as many others here with IVS doing the triggering and having Blue Iris sending http commands to change between day and night profiles according to sunrise/sunset. (Even the 4K-T is set up...

    Events: request 00000190

    Today I started getting the "Events subscription 00000190" error in my Bi system log. Continuously counting every second on both my 5442 and my IPC-color 4k-T. I also notice that the cameras IVS is currently not making BI trigger any motion. I tried the "find/inspect" feature in BI for both...

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    Found my old win7 laptop with IE11. Did a 4 times factory reset first, then "re-updated" with todays latest firmware, another 3 times factory default and configured the camera from scratch. Still no cigar regards the laggish picture. At least I got rid of the annoying "events requests" it...

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    I tried that, unfortunately that did not make any difference. I have played with this camera for several hours now and it has to be with Blue Iris. As I mentioned, viewing the Main stream from within the cameras GUI, it is super smooth. In Blue Iris console it is "laggish" as hell. If I make a...

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    As always @wittaj I appreciate your knowledge and patience. I have now turned off Hardware acceleration "everywhere" in BI (Both main settings and individually on the cameras) but the problem with my 4k-T beeing "laggish" still persists. I have come closer to a conclusion that my issue has...

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    Honestly I am not sure. It is a "outdoor rated cat 6 cable with PE outer sheating and solid core wires" bought from a reputable company. I have never heard of network cables made of pure aluminium, perhaps you mean pure copper or cca (copper cladded alu) ? I have been investigating further...

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    @wittaj , Yes, they are on a separate subnet /Vlan (192.168.30.x) /VLan 30 with interVlan routing as my console is on the "Native Vlan (0.x) with intervlan routing and ACL to prevent the cameras from internet, Other cameras are "smooth as silk", however my 4K-T is the only 8mp camera. FPS...

    IPC-Color4K-T and IPC-Color4K-T180 230227 Firmware

    I installed my first 4K-T today. Have just started dialling it in, see settings and system info. I notice that the image is very "laggish", especially when live viewing on main stream. (I am using dual streams in BI) My computer CPU/RAM load is fine. Even viewing it in UI3 locally (on the...

    Smart Motion Detection generating a lot of false positives

    Thanks @looney2ns , I actually used that guide when I set up substreams and D2D. I am still learning all the cool "new" features of BI5. I have actually been using BI since 2014 but that has been BI3 (I configured it back then and have basically not played with it, it has just worked.) Now I...

    Smart Motion Detection generating a lot of false positives

    I use substreams for "thumbnail" views and motion detection for my cameras without IVS to decrease CPU load. I see a lot of people also use substreams for 24/7 recordings to make sure nothing gets missed but is there really a purpose for that with that low resolution? (I have set up "D1"quality...

    Smart Motion Detection generating a lot of false positives

    Is there anywhere on this forum that explains how to set up IVS/ smart plan for Dahua/Andy cams? And also how to have BI trigger recordings based on the cameras motion detection rather than have BI do it? When I type in IVS in the search form, i get no results. Probably too few letters, I know...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    OK, I finally got it working! I opened the .cfg file and manually inserted the lat/long coordinates because no matter what i did the configuration menu refused to accept it, It now works great, shows the correct sunrise/sunset times for my area, and when I simulate sunrise/sunset the camera...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    @gwminor48 Yes there is a colon. The utility actually makes it this format automatically when you fill in the values in your boxes. No "pass" is not my real password, I just filled it in there for the purpose of taking a screenshot before posting it here

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    Ok, I tried using your exact coordinates now. @samplenhold At the same time I changed my computer's time setting to UTC-6 to avoid any mismatch there. Still getting the "Input string was not in a correct format" I get the error when I close the configuration tab. I have also changed my ONVIF...

    Dahua 5442 3.6mm Field Of View

    Yes, but as wittaj suggested in post #4 in this thread as option #2, one can also have BI do the day/night override. And yes, I understand that has nothing to do with this utility. Even bp2008 says he is using BI to control his cameras now instead og the utility. I appreciate your effort to...

    Dahua 5442 3.6mm Field Of View

    @samplenhold I actually just asked in bp2008s main thread about the utility. Yes, I understand that it does not interact with BI. It appears that my BI version is too old to be able to push these commands but that will be my go-to solution when I upgrade to BI 5 during the next month or so. Was...

    Dahua day/night switch utility - DahuaSunriseSunset

    Hi. Any ideas to get this utility working? I try to control a 5442 with latest firmware. Attached screenshot shows my lat/long settings. Obviously the "pass" is replaced with my real password. Do I have to put in the port # at the end of the IP? I tried port 80, 81, 8000 and even with https...

    Dahua 5442 3.6mm Field Of View

    User/pass I am sure is correct. Which port shall I use? I tried 80 and 81 but maybe another port is used for that command.

    Dahua 5442 3.6mm Field Of View

    Appreciate all the feedback. @samplenhold, I agree that it is slightly more panorated to the left than the Hik, but I still believe it shows 3-5meter (10-15feet) more to the left where you can see the excavator. As I can read from many threads here, I am trying to achieve too much with only...

    Dahua 5442 3.6mm Field Of View

    Yeah, for the ease of use I would prefer something like your suggestion #3 but that would make more sense if I was located closer to ecuator. I live far north so there is already 2 hours more daylight since Christmas... would have to do these adjustments quite often. My philips hue outdoor...

    Dahua 5442 3.6mm Field Of View

    Hi @wittaj, thanks for the feedback. Would probably have been better off with a 6mm lens if that exists for that camera. Last night I spent a fair amount of time dialling in the camera for best color at night images following your instructions, thanks for all the good information you provide...

    Dahua 5442 3.6mm Field Of View

    Hi. I just purchased my first cam from Andy based on the recommendations from you guys here. I bought this cam to replace a Hikvision ds-2cd3332-i that has been in 24/7 duty since 2014. Overall I am very impressed with this camera compared to my old one, but the FOV is completely different...
