    IPC-T5442T-ZE substream not working blue iris

    I'll have a look at the firmware. Curious what bitrate you use with 4MP?

    IPC-T5442T-ZE substream not working blue iris

    Here's the settings that work on the other cameras including the older IPC-T5442T-ZE but not on the new IPC-T5442T-ZE.

    IPC-T5442T-ZE substream not working blue iris

    It's H265 2048 is fine for 4MP and it's CBR.

    IPC-T5442T-ZE substream not working blue iris

    I've tried a few things and still no dice. I did just change all of my cameras over to H265 today so I'm sure that's not it. But here's the settings on the new camera which are identical to all other cameras. And my version of BI is 5.4.3.8 There's drop down menus but the default...

    IPC-T5442T-ZE substream not working blue iris

    That's actually what I've always done but it's never automatically filled in the substream stuff for any of my cameras but it usually does give me the full path for the main stream which I then copy paste and modify for the substream. However, in this case is just a single character "/" so I...

    IPC-T5442T-ZE substream not working blue iris

    I had a very long day yesterday and put up another IPC-T5442T-ZE and was half asleep by the time I finished. So, there's a chance I did something really stupid and was just too tired. However, I have a few older IPC-T5442T-ZE from when they just started becoming popular and I've never updated...

    Limit time recordings kept on one camera

    I'm sure this has been talked about here but I haven't been able to find it here. I have 7 IP cameras and I want 6 to keep their recordings as long as possible before overwriting which works, but I want 1 of them to only store for a limited time say 12 hours. How do I go about this?

    What to expect 2mp vs 4 mp

    I have two IPC-T5442T-ZE 4MP and four IPC-T2231T-ZS 2MP cameras and at least in my case, the IPC-T5442T-ZE 4MP wins across the board. By a lot. Unfortunately I've never used the ipc-T3241T-ZAS though.

    Decent IP camera to watch CNC machines

    That's a good point, I didn't think of the delay. Though, I'm not entirely sure the delay is a huge issue for us. It's more of a way to keep an eye on what's going on, chips piling up etc. My main concern is I know absolutely nothing about analog cameras etc. The IP ones and Blue iris I'm...

    Decent IP camera to watch CNC machines

    Hi all, I'm setting up a few cameras so we can watch CNC machines run in case we see, or hear an issue etc while programming in the other room. I was thinking of using the IPC-T5442T-ZE as I've had excellent luck with them for outdoor use. But I realized these machines are generally very...

    Couldn't be happier

    Hi all, Just wanted to say thanks. Because of this forum I have two IPC-T5442T-ZE and four IPC-T2231T-ZS cameras running on BI and they're working fantastic. I recently added a VPN so I can view them from other locations. Unfortunately all my friends have the usual....

    Traffic triggering alerts at night

    Hi all I'm running 6 Dahua cameras 3 of which are on the front of the house. We live on a main street so there's no lack of traffic all night long. The headlights trigger one of the cameras pretty bad that I run in color all night long. I've messed around with my settings but I'm hoping...

    How bad is a Netgate SG 2100?

    Router recommendations

    Honestly, the main reason I keep avoiding things like pfSense is because I'm being lazy and don't entirely know what it is I guess. I mean worse case, if I messed up the router I'd plug a computer directly into the modem until I fixed it but I usually have multiple LTE/5G connections as well. I...

    Is that Dream Machine actually that good?!? Maybe I really do need to ignore it's looks and dig deeper....

    Router recommendations

    Is that really considered a good router? It looks super user friendly and made to look pretty and makes me assume it's capabilities are limited. Looks can be deceiving tho.

    Router recommendations

    Alright, my first and biggest beef is I want to have this down in the basement with the rest of my switches etc. But, I don't want to have a monitor, keyboard and mouse down there. Can I remote access this once it's setup and running like a normal router? Will it handle running with a lot of...

    Router recommendations

    Looks like a few votes for Ubiquiti. I was thinking of using their APs. I'd rather an out of the box solution for a router rather than one I have to modify etc to work good. I understand that's not always possible with things, but I'm hoping it can be avoided in this case.

    Router recommendations

    I think it's time to replace my older Netgear router and was hoping for some recommendations. Looking for a router that can handle a decent amount of traffic. We often have 4-5 things streaming video at any given time. I'm far from an expert, but I was thinking along the lines of a router and...

    Can I just block cameras from net?

    Hi all, I've got a question before I plug this into my main network. I've read about not updating windows 10 drivers automatically etc but what about windows updates? How is everyone handling those? I would rather the system not update and restart all of the time but I also don't like having...

    Can I just block cameras from net?

    Currently yes. I would just be connecting the poe switch to the router. Would the data even pass thru the router to get to the BI pc?

    Can I just block cameras from net?

    Hi all, I apologise if this has been talked about but I'm wondering if it would be safe to connect my ip cameras and blue iris machine to my wifi router and just block their ips in the router from internet access? Primarily I want to be able to access them from wifi in the house on phones /...

    POE or Analog

    So far I've got 6 poe cameras from Andy. Two IPC-T5442T-ZE 4MP for the front main area and four IPC-T2231T-ZS 2MP for everything else. They're all vari focal which is odd because originally I thought it was a waste of money and after owning one it's all I'll buy now. The two 4MP ones I have...

    PFA130-E question

    The first two I got had a line as if they were supposed to be cut / split but they weren't. The one I just opened didn't even have a line. I assume the other 3 are the same but haven't actually checked yet.

    PFA130-E question

    Hi all, This is probably a stupid question but I'm going to ask anyway. The rubber plug in the center of the PFA130-E.... How do most deal with that? The last two I installed a cut one side with a sharp knife so I could slip my wire in it. But those are under a covered porch so I wasn't...

    Review IPC-T5442TM-AS-LED (Full Color, Starlight+)

    I'm sorry but does anyone have a working link to the "Active Deterrence" camera that's similar or an idea of price? Also, do they work with Blue Iris? I understand they are not the same camera but what's closest?

    IPC-HDW5442T-ZE New cam from Dahua :)

    Depending on the person, that could be used for identification. ;)
