    Power adapter for POE camera

    That's JUST WHY I could expect all vendors to supply the cam with a PROPER waterproof seal. NOT to play with silicone and not to block it, not with the glue if the electric tape and with no miki-mousing. 1 cent cap with a proper rubber seal last longer, looks better' protect better and you can...

    AI Face Detection / Recognation NVR4216-i

    The Face Recognition feature is not and cannot be "bullet proof". It's not expected to be as reliable as IVS or other methods. The limitations of FR could and had to be dealt of with a good SW and that's (yet?) not the case. As m00st was saying, the false positive of that technology is very...

    Power adapter for POE camera

    The better question is why all vendors supply the power inlet with no waterproof caps. Most of the users are NOT using the power inlet, the ethernet cable comes with a waterproof cap but the power that is not in use at all in most cases comes without a cap to seal it.

    Blown Out Images

    There are many Dahua IPC models just like there are many different Samsung phones. what is the model? you should check at camera>conditions>backlight try all modes but not all Dahua models support it.

    veri focal have their own advantages. but always, fixed lens = less optics = more light = better image for the same sensor.

    5442 Turret vs Bullet and Gutter IR Reflections

    I can tell you that I have 4 of each. Both types 5442 The main difference in performance is more about the location. There is no much of a difference in the performance of the cams. However that, and since both preforms pretty much the same, I can tell you that the bullet have got many alarm...

    AI Face Detection / Recognation NVR4216-i

    Again, I never expected the FR to be reliable as standalone feature. you can never expect every auto capture to be good enough for FR. But just because of that, I could expect it to be an additional filter for SMD or IVS. Could have been enough for me to filter some of the false positive...

    diference between nvr4208-8p-i and nvr5216-8p-i

    told you: the number of FR channels and bandwidth for sure since I never tried the 4208, I wouldn't know if there are also missing features. If you need a usable FR function, none of them is what you're looking for. at least, not now. The FW is capable but the bad SW makes it useless.

    diference between nvr4208-8p-i and nvr5216-8p-i

    not sure what you meant to say here but I'll add to @bigredfish that the two models are also different by the amount of cams that supports FR or, of you do the FD by the cam and FR by the NVR, the 52XX cam use all cams for FR. BUT at the moment. the FR implantation is really BAD. I'd suggest...

    AI Face Detection / Recognation NVR4216-i

    I have the 5216-16P-I Not sure about the performance yours, but the 4216 is not as strong. it also had a pretty bad review here. First, the idea of face recognition in general is great and doing it using the NVR have a different advantage. The 5216 too is not ready for market and suffers from...

    keep in mind that 1. there were few cases where factory defaults few times made the change so if you need to re do the settings, do the factory defaults X3 times one after the other. 2. when you do it with the GUI, do not leave the page. wait till the camera fully restarts. 3. if you're using...

    Sell Custom Lengths of Cat 6?

    and how are you gonna water proof pre made cables? I would again suggest DIY as my friends. when I started making them, it was different but today you can DIY everything after spending less time than you spent here in youtube and less time to go and buy then than your online searches. I can...

    Review-OEM Loryta IPC-T5442T-ZE Varifocal 4mp camera (Dahua)

    And what you have is not that bad.... For next times, never look for a dual usage for a single camera. could be nice if it could work but normally it does not. You define the purpose for each camera, check the right distance and zoom you need, buy a suitable cam for that purpose, choose the...

    Thanks again looney2ns Are you SURE you are talking about the bullet cam B5442E-ZE??? That thread belongs to the 5442T-ZE and since Andy confirmed that the FW matches both, I was mentioning that I can't get the smart IR function showing for the E-ZE. I do see it in all of my 4 T-ZE's but in...

    Thank you @looney2ns Guess it's the E-ZE I'll try that. Didn't even think about it cause I've got 4 of those cams and all were acting the same. The 4 cams T-ZE all showed the smart IR so I didn't suspect it needs reset.

    Yes, I could see that you're using meters (the proper way, not the stupid ft). Other than that, you really need a good excuse to live in the UK ;-) Using pounds, driving in the wrong side talking funny.... there is no real excuse for those.

    Well, it's not like I was expecting too much from the FR feature. I do know and did know that it's limited in angle, range, light and in general, it takes a good face capture to be able to do the recognition. By the way, the maximum distance for FR depends on the cam and the zoom if it's got...

    Pro AI NVR latest new firmware NVR5XXX-I_MultiLang_V4.001.0000000.2.R.200814.bin

    As I was saying before, the FR had to be combined with SMD and/or IVS. As a standalone, it's not reliable enough for anything but as an extra filter for SMD and/or IVS it could be useful (providing you keep following the subject and make a single decision for the same object based on the best...

    I was trying it for all 5442T0ZE AND 5442E-ZE For some reason, I cannot find smart IR showing for my bullets [5442E-Ze]. Same FW but the feature appears only for the T-ZE's Not sure if I did something different in the settings nor if it showed before the upgrade. According to the official...

    IVS problems with IPC-HDW5442T-ZE

    Normally, there is no point to suggesting a working setup. What was found perfect for that cam would not necessarily work for my other cams, let alone for you. That most problematic cam preformed better not set on manual but on shutter priority, customized range.

    IVS problems with IPC-HDW5442T-ZE

    oh, and about the myth that the AMD got better in the latest version (20200825): it did get better in a way. before, I used to get SOME SMD events from cats and from my family dog. now, it never misses the family dog and it's capturing a lot of tree movements as well. the only difference I can...

    IVS problems with IPC-HDW5442T-ZE

    I was testing the 5442T-ZE and the 5442E-ZE. There is no difference between the two. Actually, in my case, the bullets suffered even more but I blame the settings and not the particular cams. What I did find out, is that playing with the exposure made a great difference. From not detecting at...

    Dahua IPC-HDW5442T-ZE 4MP Varifocal Turret - Night Perfomance testing

    No, I didn't (yet) test it with snapshots. As for the anti-dither, as I expected it to continue X seconds after detecting a motion. Only now I see that it's supposed to continue recording for a certain amount of time after motion has ended. I didn't even notice that with fast reading. I'll...

    Dahua IPC-HDW5442T-ZE 4MP Varifocal Turret - Night Perfomance testing

    it's not as if the bullets are doing great though the settings does not fit the eyeball cams. I'm using those cams together with B5442E-ZE (the bullet) and I can tell you that the bullets are triggering cats and dogs (especially on IR light) as SMD events.

    IVS problems with IPC-HDW5442T-ZE

    what backlight do you use? I found out last night that one of my IPC triggers in the dark and another one doesn't. The first was using WDR and the second was using BLC. I'm not sure if it's got something to do with it, but I'll try to set them both to use WDR and see if it makes the difference.

    NVR - freezing, lagging, delays

    Thanks wasabi, forgot to change all cams to the same settings: Currently trying all 8 IPC on 4MP resolution, 15FPS, 2048Kb/S for the main stream. b/r type CBR and compression H.265 currently for all cams. I'd try that and change if needed.

    IVS problems with IPC-HDW5442T-ZE

    That FW keeps identifying our family dog as human on SMD The IVS keeps getting human intrusions from him. And the face recognition always finds him to be confused. Personally, I tend to believe that the one confused here is the IPC and my dog didn't turn to be human after all.

    NVR - freezing, lagging, delays

    Thanks, My ISP gives a poor upload of 5 Mbps but I was actually talking about the stream when using from inside my LAN.... All of those halts and slow motion, lagging etc. I get while connected to my 1 Gbps LAN.
