    smart pss on a 4k screen

    But I use my computer for other tasks too. And BTW, instead of changing windows resolution back and forth you can achieve similar results with "High DPI scaling override" property in the SmartPSS shortcut. The image is blury and that's not what I expect from a professional software in 2019

    Dahua IVS question

    My understanding was "Record delay" is the time how long it will record after the motion is detected. So it normally starts at the right moment, but sometimes when person is moving very slowly or stops and waits a bit (think a dog taking a dump) and then walks away it will not not capture all...

    Do I need a junction box for a bullet camera, if I want to wire it outside

    Looking at IPC-HFW1831E and trying to understand if there is a channel to route the cable sideways, like in the turret cameras. It will be mounted on the ceiling and I must attach the wiring to the ceiling from the outside, can not drill though.

    Is this considered an advantage? I see that this version is cheaper than non-LED, I wonder why. If I have some street light (not total darkness), which version should I get?

    Can blue iris detect a dog taking a dump?

    Too much time to review. And there's a sidewalk, so regular motion detection would be triggered too often.
