    which PoE switches are recommended and work for all cameras?

    Hello all, I have a few Hikvision and other (small brands but could be rebranded Hikvision) cameras. All of them are powered via PoE, but a few years ago I had problems with this setup. The cameras were working fine but randomly they stopped working and did not power back up again. I do not...

    getting interrupts in BI, can it be because of variable stream when no movement is there?

    BI is displaying "no Signal" with I think the last image received from the camera, where then the watchdog kicks in and restarts the BI interface to the camera (showing the colored test screen) and then BI shows the camera picture again as nothing were wrong. The weird thing is, currently...

    getting interrupts in BI, can it be because of variable stream when no movement is there?

    No, it is connected to LAN and PoE, from the PoE switch to one PC is a direct LAN connection, from the PoE switch to my laptop is a Powerline connection. The interrupts happen on both the PC (wired connection via Switch to camera) as well on my Powerline connected laptop.

    getting interrupts in BI, can it be because of variable stream when no movement is there?

    I have some problems with my Hikvision camera. I added them to Blue Iris, but I often get "no signal", it appears the feed is interupted. Ping to the camera works fine and i set BI watchdog to restart the camera window after 2 timeouts and the timeout period of 20 seconds. That works but why do...

    ip camera: cannot login: Uncaught ReferenceError: IPCLogin is not defined in index.js

    My concern is: what happens if it stays this after reset? Currently I can still use the camera, just not the settings. Besides - it is mounted near the roof where I cannot reach it easily :(

    ip camera: cannot login: Uncaught ReferenceError: IPCLogin is not defined in index.js

    I have a cheap noname PTZ camera, attached to my network via PoE. I do not record from this camera but only watch the stream and use its PTZ function. Just recently we had a power out where the camera rebooted. Some time ago I set up this camera and simply left it, it worked for me no issues...

    Add not-fixed surveillance to a house, Arlo + LTE router, would this work or am I missing something?

    I need to add surveillance to a house. Problem is the cameras must not be fixed cameras and they must not have wiring, as the house will be rented out after repairs. I already have an Arlo system and 3 cameras, which are currently redundant, so I would like to use those. Is it that simple: Get...

    Are there IP Cameras (for outdoor) with night vision but not IR LED night vision?

So anybody could come along, point a night vision goggles to my house and...

    Which software could I use to generate preview pictures of a lot of camera videos to quickly sift through a lot of videos?

    The cameras react on motion and start saving the file about 10 seconds before the motion. Because of this I cannot use the Windows preview pictures, because they show the first picture taken. Yes, I know motion detection is bad because of a lot of videos, but I have no other option. Specifically...
