    Black Cameras?

    Just do a 4-5 layers if you are going to dip it, makes it easier to remove later when you need to apply for RMA. (or they make dip remover here too if you sprayed too thin and unable to peel it off) https://www.dipyourcar.com/Dip-Dissolver.html

    Continuous recording not showing alerts in Playback

    Try to use IVMS4200's event search to view when the motion happened even on continuous (depending on the version of ivms4200, the one i have recently automatically shows List of Events on the right when I do playback). this is from the user manual of ivms 4200 v 2.3.1.3 build20150416

    Which NVR with alarm input, and is it worth it?

    Upside: -eliminate false motion such as bugs, trees, leaves. in a school I know a guy have connected this to a door contact with a camera pointed at it so it send an email of each person opening that door and excludes everyone that is just walking around the door. -save on hard drive space...

    Hikvision camera with firmware v5.3.3 on Hikvision NVR

    you can hope that Hikvision release a firmware that fix that machine to see 4 MP cameras. Older NVRs that were sold before 4 MP cameras existed had the same problem until they had new firmware. (not detecting 4 MP stream)

    Why do businesses use such crappy security cameras?

    In my opinion it is because IP wasn't affordable till hikvision and dahua came along, and HD-CVI/TVI didn't exist till recently (past 1-2 years). Many installs (as recent as 3 years to 4 years ago) are already outdated...can't blame them not wanting to keep up with the latest every few years...

    Any luck with 4mp at night with IR?

    You can unscrew the trim ring on the turret with EX IR (i think that's what you said you have?) then there's a screw that holds the eyeball tight. loosen that screw and the eyeball can rotate in 360 degrees. trim ring is weird ...you have to GENTLY unscrew it and not try to force it off. Yes...

    Front porch camera recommendation needed

    The speaker will come out from the camera's audio out port. the data will transmit over the current cat5 POE switch->cat5-->camera camera-->speaker

    Front porch camera recommendation needed

    I think you have to splice/hook up your own Speaker for the audio-out, then use either web interface with a pc mic or the phone app to talk to it.

    Hello from Texas

    Hmm nothing shows under playback? Under HDD what does the status say? 1. if the HDD shows up with no problem and status says normal, it should be on motion detection by default a. you can initalize the HD again if you like (aka formatting the Hard drive) 2. You can set it to Continuous...

    Hello from Texas

    No problem~ you can turn off the password check at the machine too if you feel it is too much hassle or lengthen the logout time, just go to configuration->General->uncheck password check I think with some of the turrets they put the photo sensor too deep (same thing happens to the cubes...

    Any luck with 4mp at night with IR?

    If you have the turret you can rotate the camera upside down (so the IR is to the left side because in your picture it seems you need more IR on the left...) then in image in Mirror then do up/down then do Center then it'll be reverse upside down (i hope that made sense). like for my house, if...

    Hello from Texas

    If you changed your pw, the NVR's upper case and lower case letters are not very clear so you might be entering wrong case for password...try to change your pw to all numbers on the computer to eliminate that possibility.

    Hello from Texas

    If your LED light will be on all the time at night I would just set the camera to Day mode. I think when it switches, it is based on how much light hits the sensor (the little green circle thing) so maybe not enough light hitting it tonight? Yeah its a bit weird... your camera's not in night...

    2MP vs 4MP?

    I agree, also not just aliexpres, even within seemingly reputable US sellers such as Wrightwood there's Chinese hacked 'multi' version...and this is where you must read the fine print, just because they are in US and seem to be more expensive doesn't mean they are selling US stuff. Example...
