    Do we really need 4MP? Dahua resolutions comparison.

    I agree with both of you on general quality, that is linked to price, anyway. BUT the point of my thread is not to compare different camera resolutions, sensor and quality, but only to check inside one camera itself, if it's really needed the greater resolution or if its equivalent also less...

    DS-2CD4085F-AP 4K - 8MPixel camera night video

    Hi Korgoth, beautiful nighttime pics! Do you have access to that camera? I mean, I'm searching for some test pics from 8MP cameras for a comparison: could you make or obtain 3 snapshots from that? One @8MP, @4MP and @2MP (1920x1080) from the same camera, CBR max Mb/s, daytime (also nighttime?)...

    24 8MP Cameras using Blue Iris (follow up)

    Hi dobiecomputers, I'm making some comparative testing on cams' resolutions, and I wonder how well is your 8MP. So, I'm asking you: could you gently post some snapshots from one of your 8MP? I would need one pic @8MP, one @4MP and one @2MP(1920x1080): so all is needed is 3 snapshots from the...

    Do we really need 4MP? Dahua resolutions comparison.

    Do you mean 4MPvs3MP camera or 4K camera? Because 4k are a lot more expensive vs 4MP (minimum 3-4x).

    Dahua Internal Microphone, any good?

    I have bought those mics, too. BUT I have a problem with them: I connected it with a 12V external ali and they make a loud hum when connected to my Dahua IPC4421AS: you can't quite hear anything else. It could be some noise loop? What could I do?

    chrome doesn't show dahua live camera

    I solved it: for this page there isn't the button on the address bar, it's needed to manually do it in the right button mouse menu. Thank you.

    Got my Dahua 4MP IPC-HDBW4421R-AS 2.8mm

    Finally I got mine. I see in BI there are some controls (PTZ/controls) for brightness, contrast and so on. But they does nothing. Is there a way to control camera settings without going to browser? It could be better done in BI due to the profile options.

    Do we really need 4MP? Dahua resolutions comparison.

    When I said buying the 4MP, I was thinking to build a system from scratch, having no camera at all. If someone has some 3MP camera, I agree with you, it's not the case to upgrade at the moment.

    Do we really need 4MP? Dahua resolutions comparison.

    I don't know, I'm not convinced. First, 4xcamera displayed on a 4k monitor, means you have 1920x1080x4, so the exact fullHD without rescaling, to completely fill the 4k monitor. BUT I agree with you that new 4MP cameras are surely better than the old 2MP (but also 3MP) cameras. BUT NOT for the...

    chrome doesn't show dahua live camera

    Well, I left IE that doesn't work also with trusted sites and so on. I retried with chrome and I made it work: there was a menu with blocking plugin... BUT, now it enters and visualize all, but there is no more the translation!! :mad-new: But why?? So, having the translation without live or...

    Do we really need 4MP? Dahua resolutions comparison.

    It's finally arrived my first Ipcam, a Dahua IPC4421 with 3.6mm, firmware xxx.010R I wanted to know how much difference there is from the max 2688x1520 to the classic 1920x1080 and intermediary res, 4MP and 3MP. So I recorded with H.264H and extracted some frames and compared them. Here the...

    chrome doesn't show dahua live camera

    I deleted all the webrec folder, tried IE, downloaded the plugin, closed IE, executed the exe, restarted IE: it's logging but it asks again the plugin and live video doesn't work. So, at the moment the only one working is FF.

    chrome doesn't show dahua live camera

    Yes, Firefox works, BUT it is in chinese... I tried google translator but it doesn't work on all the page, as it is a local page. The best I can do is translate every single word when I need, but also words inside menu can't be selected and translated... Instead in chrome you get every chinese...

    chrome doesn't show dahua live camera

    I'm trying to use chrome with a Dahua ipcam because I want the browser translation from chinese. I know the new chrome don't work with NPAPI plugins, so I installed an old one, version 42. If I enter with the NPAPI plugin disabled I can enter with the credentials and I see the link to donwload...

    Got my Dahua 4MP IPC-HDBW4421R-AS 2.8mm

    You only need to buy one external CCTV mic, give it a 12V and connect to a Dahua xxx-AS model. Done. Like this one: http://www.ebay.it/itm/HIGH-Gain-Indoor-Outdoor-CCTV-AUDIO-MODULE-MICROPHONE-MIC-/290780985823?var=&hash=item43b3e5b9df:m:msAlYC5jLH9GtE4d8a-5XzA

    Review - TOP-201 Super Mini 720P HD IP-Cam (The Cheapest IP Cam So Far !!)

    That is a good price, BUT nowadays it's not that unique, for example: generic IPcam 720p 24,95$, free shipping...

    Version 4.2.1

    It seems, somehow the cam (old USB 1080p) changes slightly the overall luminosity, and the motion will get that! But before this wouldn't trigger it. This way every sudden change in luminosity (even a cloud) could trigger it. Now, we have a minimum object size, maybe it should be also a...

    Version 4.2.1

    Person triggers: That tiny person at top in the street causes that trigger! Weird enough, only sometimes, not always!

    Version 4.2.1

    4.2.1 causes a false motion when there is some movement in other areas not in the selected mask: Here a TIR travels on the street and it triggers the external stairs where there is the mask. Even a little object like a person triggers that. Previous version didn't.

    Review - TOP-201 Super Mini 720P HD IP-Cam (The Cheapest IP Cam So Far !!)

    But now that from china you can buy a 3MP Hikvision or Dahua at about 52-70€ shipped (or a hik 720p at 44€), does still it make sense buying this 720p ipcam (title say cheapest...but a year ago)?

    Version 4.2.1

    High Definition mode works very well: the object detected can be seen with all little squares that fits perfectly the silhouette!

    Version 4.2.1

    Works fine here. I'm trying shadow cancellation, but in night vision with an outside light, a man's shadow is still detected, before the real person walking. So, it seems that doesn't work well at night.

    DS-2CD2335I Model confusion

    Maybe the mainboard is the same on the 2 models and they change only the sensor and adapt the software.

    DS-2CD2335I Model confusion

    Looking at the spec of a 4MP xx5 it seems it has a different sensor, as regarding resolution and also sensitivity 0.07 instead of 0.01 of xx2. So it should the same with a 3MP 2335 vs 2332, more worse with a 4MP 2342.

    Got my Dahua 4MP IPC-HDBW4421R-AS 2.8mm

    It's my first buy in China, so I'm not expert on this firmware thing. This camera from Sincerity Trade, like bp2008 said, shouldn't be not-chinese firmware? He said he didn't saw any chinese character in the first page. What should it mean chinese firmware? The web interface is chinese but the...

    switch 4port POE modeA

    Ok. I have another doubt: maybe I will put it outside under a canopy, so what's the better box to cover it? Perfectly isolated airtight container or one with low-high openings to let air flow? In the closed box I fear too much heat (4POE) in summer and maybe also condensation. The other one...

    switch 4port POE modeA

    Perfect. I know modeB is the default in Gigabit connection. But is modeA the default one when using 10/100? Someone told me the default is modeB even in 10/100(?).
