    Weird. Didn't have this problem last night with the IR. I should take this time to update firmware.

    Thanks! I'll give those a shot. Where do you get the exact zoom and focus variables?

    Did some testing and I zoomed it in a little after getting these. and changed the angle more to the right. But might change it back.

    Thanks, I might have to do that tonight. My neighbors will be a bit confused, but it'll be worth it. Just changed to h264 and cbr. Hopefully that clears it up during the daytime.

    So this is what I'm currently getting.. Just is too blurry to pick up the actual plate. Should I zoom in? Or is it more a settings thing?

    I had the same issue and had to make a new ONVIF user for it to work for me

    LPR Install ipc-hfw5241e-z12e

    LPR Install ipc-hfw5241e-z12e

    I'll have to look into the spotter cams. But shouldn't be a problem to throw up some fixed cams. Pretty much have the area covered.

    LPR Install ipc-hfw5241e-z12e

    Lol I'm pretty excited to do auto tracking PTZ. I just have to get out sometime this week and fine tune the settings to grab the plates.

    LPR Install ipc-hfw5241e-z12e

    Installed this today and hope the angle works out. If not, guess I'll move it. I think I'm passed the point of buying cameras for security. It's more just an expensive hobby at this point. Next up is probably a 25x PTZ on the peak of my house.

    Yeah I'm pretty set on that one. It looks great and would be a great camera to own Sent from my SM-G781U using Tapatalk

    Here's the angle from one of my cameras, that I just realized wouldn't be a bad spot for a zoomed in LPR.. the cable is already run and I could move this cam close to eye level at my door area. Sent from my SM-G781U using Tapatalk

    Here's some images from landscaped area in front of my house. I could mount high on the porch if needed. Sent from my SM-G781U using Tapatalk

    Hiding LPR

    This one is my favorite. I think I need to at least run a cable from my switch on the left side, grab a camera from Andy, and start testing angles. Then plan out a enclosure or it might even work out mounted to my house. I really wish that tree was a normal tree and not a weeping willow

    Not a bad idea at all and would have some pretty great angles lol. I only have the stick up mail box.. but I have been wanting to change that.. Just really don't feel like running a cable that far right now. I'm definitely gonna explore the option though because I guess I could get a cheaper...

    Jk I found it. Yeah gotta fix the light below the camera. And then after that I need to figure out why it skips so much in blue iris playback/ui3. It's my only camera that skips that much.
