    Cam Activation/Configuration over VPN?

    on the PC that you have access to on the LAN, go into network configuration and add IP on same subnet as suspected default hik ip (eg: 192.168.1.63). then you'll be able to bring it up in the browser on that PC and reconfigure from there... on windows, this is done in 'advanced' setting of...

    anyone know if this happpened? ie, where to get latest IR-fixed fw for hdw5442tp-as? dahuawiki has DH_IPC-HX5XXX-Volt_MultiLang_NP_Stream3-USA_V2.820.0000000.0.R.201114.bin, but that's USA-specific (not international) and unclear that it has the IR fixes discussed here... thanx.

    Blue Iris keeps crashing.

    glad to hear you got that sorted! best to run as a service anyways, so it gets started automatically in case of system reboot (like after a windows upgrade when you aren't there to log in). yes, there are other ways of dealing with that (like disabling updates entirely) but that's how it's...

    Dahua Dh-sd59230t-hn Speed dome troubles,red blink on board , need help

    i see no traffic from the cam in that capture. Just packets from your Dell, though it looks like you may have set it at 192.168.1.1 and .254.254 to do the tftp thing? too bad, as that cannot work if there's no signs of life from the cam...

    you need to select that ethernet interface to start the actual packet capture. that's just showing 'some' traffic, not what it is exactly...

    Hikvision 4K Live View Lagging !

    how long is 'strong lagging? what device are you 'live-viewing' from? the NVR console? a web browser on the same network? a web browser or phone on a remote network? IP cams can typically have 1-2 second 'handwaving' lag/delay through the system, but any longer than a couple seconds may...

    Suspicious vehicle - What do you think?

    practicing for driving in the UK? or just curb-hugging to 'get the feel of it'? yeah, it's weird. that's just what came to mind... :)

    recommendation for best ip camera to capture face?

    lot's of options. if you don't need more than about 12mm (~4x) zoom, most vari-focal's should get the FOV you need... what's the lighting like at night? how much $ you wanna spend? a face for ID can be hard to get if the target is wearing a mask & hat and keeping their gaze down to the...

    Dahua Dh-sd59230t-hn Speed dome troubles,red blink on board , need help

    OK, checking the specs of that camera, it does seem to require PoE+ (not just PoE), and it wants 24V AC power input. https://www.kamery-ip.com/zalacznik/Karta-katalogowa-Dahua-SD59230T-HN-6577.pdf so perhaps your 'regular' poe switch simply can't provide enuf power for it, so it flashes like...

    Dahua Dh-sd59230t-hn Speed dome troubles,red blink on board , need help

    yes, that's the reset button. if not already,. hold it down for a good 30 seconds while powering it up to effect a factory reset on otherwise OK camera. "it tries to identify lan network then it dissapear for 1 second and coming back again " do you mean the switch poe and/or link light comes...

    2021 New Product From Dahua

    right. the imx482 seems to be e 'binned' version of the 8mp imx485 chip (ie, 4 pixels are binned together to make one uber-pixel). my prediction is that it'll show up only in astronomy and industrial applications, as the IMX385 did, at a substantial price point above those found in our...

    2021 New Product From Dahua

    it'll be interesting to see if anyone has the balls to make a 2MP version on a 1/1.2" (or larger!) sensor, ala IMX482 w/ 5.9um pixels. The previous pixel-size winner (imx385, 2MP on 1/2" sensor for 3.8um pixels) never got widely incorported into mainstream cams... My guess is 'no', but I'd...

    Placement of PoE splitter

    back to the OP's question, I've used these to split off a 12V device from the PoE link: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RB26YX6 not the cheapest, but relatively small form factor and works well...

    Smartening up the Lorex LNB8005C 8MP mini bullet.

    dunno about the NVR, but i have found no Dahua fw that works on the E891ab... my major gripe with the Lorex fw is the gui won't let you set the I-frame interval, but there's a workaround for that: Set GOP (I-frame interval) on Lorex cams that don't have this exposed in the web UI.

    Adding to HDW2231R-ZS 2MP cams, go 4MP or stick with 2MP?

    double them up. two on each side instead of one. one aimed closer in to cover the yard and everything this side of the sidewalk, the other further out to get action on the sidewalk and street in either direction. the ones for sidewalk/street action can be mounted a bit higher. the 4mp with...
