    Using IR illuminator with street light and ambient light

    Yeah, it's definitely working. Doug from Axton told me that at that range anything less than 90 degrees would be overkill, but after hearing other folks' experiences I went with the 30 degree version. I could be that I just need a more power version with the narrower beam.

    Using IR illuminator with street light and ambient light

    Like other members (thanks biggen!), I bought an Axton IR illuminator (5w, 30 degree Nano version) to improve LPR capture. My capture distance is only about 85 feet so even with street lights and some white landscape lighting on the side of my house I figured the 30 degree beam would light the...

    Image missing from push notification

    Yeah, I feel like I've tried everything and can't get them to work, even on my newer Galaxy S20+. I imagine the variations of carriers and Android versions poses a development challenge. I'd use SMS but I'm limited in text messages per my 15 year old Verizon unlimited data plan which I've found...

    ALPR capabilities of IRLZF1050?

    Looking forward to it, thanks. Openalpr is working pretty good for me now so I'm curious how the Dahua FW works for the variations of US plates.

    Image missing from push notification

    Figured I'd circle back on this again. With the various updates to BI and the Android app, has anyone been able to get push notifications with images to work on Android without using MMS?

    ALPR capabilities of IRLZF1050?

    That's an incredibly helpful reply, thanks so much. It looks like you are outside of North America given the shape and style of the plates you're getting. I wonder how the firmware works in the United States. I would have to assume that it varies by state. The most recent dual sensor PTZ...

    ALPR capabilities of IRLZF1050?

    Thanks for the reply. I haven't owned a Dahua ALPR cam before so I was just curious how accurate and reliable the plate reads are, whether you can search for plates in the web GUI, or if there are any comparisons to OpenALPR. There's a Dahua ALPR training webinar on Youtube but it wasn't clear...

    ALPR capabilities of IRLZF1050?

    Just curious if anyone has experience with the ALPR capabilities of the ITC237-PW6M-IRLZF1050? I'm currently running a Z12E using about 90 percent (1140) of the zoom, but might be able to get by with the 50mm zoom in the IRLZF1050 if the ALPR was generally functional. I've seen other reviews of...

    Question on IPC-T2831 housing

    I have a couple of 8mp IPC-T2831T-AS S2s that I bought from Andy that have the plastic housing and trim ring, but the 8mp varifocal model--also listed as from the "lite" collection--appears to have full aluminum housing found in the non-lite models, which is what I'm needing for this particular...

    Blue Iris technical support got back with and indicated that they are about to beta test an update to the Android app that will address this issue, so we'll see.

    Review-Dahua IPC-HDBW4231F-E2-M Dual Starlight Cam

    Has anyone with this camera swapped out one of the lenses like in this video? If so, am curious what lens was used. I've got the perfect spot for this camera with a 2.8mm and a 12mm or slightly longer lens for the other cam and wanted to make sure that I bought one that is confirmed to fit.

    Review-Dahua IPC-HDBW4231F-E2-M Dual Starlight Cam

    Anyone on this post use the camera uncovered in direct sunlight? While not preferable I know I'm just curious if anyone has this set up and the camera has performed fine given its already higher running temperature. I've got two spots where the camera could go, but the spot it would work best...

    Image missing from push notification

    Like apparently several others, for my Android (Galaxy Note 9) phone I've been able to get alert images through MMS but not through push notifications. Running on BI ver. 5.3.7.10. Has anyone gotten image/push notifications to work?

    2MP 3x Starlight IR PTZ Network Camera

    Was reading through some threads earlier this year about this camera and was wondering if anyone can confirm if the subsequent firmware updates have given it preset capability with IVS. Andy has them in stock and was going to check the latest firmware but I haven't heard back, so any insight...

    Socket error 10054

    PROBLEM SOLVED: All of the socket error issues went away went I downgraded Blue Iris back to version 5.3.4.3. I was able to add five more cameras with any issues and without BI stopping.
