    Camera recommendation for this spot?

    Thanks for the suggestions! I’ll give them a try and let y’all know how it turns out. I can probably move it forward a little and patch the screw holes, but I don’t want to have to repair the 1” hole I’ve already drilled in the soffit for the connector to pass thru if I can help it. I’ll...

    Camera recommendation for this spot?

    Well, I think I failed miserably. I mounted a HDW2231R-ZS to the soffit. I did test the camera before I installed it and the video looked great at night. Now it’s all cloudy. When I originally tested, the camera was a little lower. Any suggestions on what you all think is wrong with this...

    Camera recommendation for this spot?

    I want to keep an eye on my truck. A big bonus would be being able to see my mailbox 60’ away as well. Camera would be mounted to the plywood soffit and wires run into the attic. There is some ambient light from a streetlight about 140’ from this point on the house. The camera sort of needs to...

    Camera recommendations for inside 2 car garage?

    I’m looking for something relatively inexpensive to put inside my attached 2 car garage. It’s approx 22’ x 22’. I’ll probably mount the camera on the ceiling in a corner. I would prefer to go a little cheap on this camera, and save my money for more expensive exterior cameras. It needs to be...

    Trying to add my LA View cameras

    I guess I just had to find the right Hikvision camera to choose. I did some digging and found the Hikvision camera with the closest specs to my Laview. It is working now. Thx again for the help, and sorry again for being a pia.

    Trying to add my LA View cameras

    Thank you Sir! It is very possible I’m doing something incorrectly. Yes, hopefully @alexvas can figure it out. I wonder if I need to change any settings in the camera configuration?? Thx

    Trying to add my LA View cameras

    Nothing seems to work. I double checked the port numbers, and they're right. The only thing that got close was trying a different Hikvision model, but I was getting about an 80% dropped frame rate and no video. Thanks

    Trying to add my LA View cameras

    I checked my password a few times by logging directly into the camera. Maybe I need to change the port. I’ll have to look at it again later. Thanks

    Trying to add my LA View cameras

    No, what is that and where should I put it? The error I'm getting says my camera does not support RTSP stream, yet that looks like a link to a RTSP stream. I don't get it. Lots of bad advice floating around this forum. The error I'm getting is "camera does not support RTSP streaming"

    Trying to add my LA View cameras

    I have 2 LA View cameras I'm trying to add to tinycam. The models are not listed as supported. I've tried to select ONVIF, but it doesn't work. I keep getting RTSP stream not supported. The sku for one of the cameras is LV-PBK80804C. One is a 4k bullet and the other a 4k dome sku- LV-PDK50812A

    Lorex NVR won’t display LaView cameras

    So much for onvif huh? No, the thought of wasting a bunch of time with no return is not appealing to me. I do appreciate the honest reply.

    Advantages of a NVR Vs. Blue Iris and a PC?

    Bumping and old thread. Other than the cost of the NVR (which seems almost free with some of the bundled systems when compared to buying everything separately) is there any disadvantage to running BI and an NVR. There are a few reasons I'm considering this. 1. I think my pc is lacking for the...

    OpenVPN and BI fail

    I set up an ASUS router and enabled openvpn. I downloaded openvpn connect on my iphone. I can access my cameras with safari and data connection. I can access UI3 on data connection. When I try to connect with the BI ios app all I get is "unable to make connection, check server address". I'm a...

    BI computer, AT&T router and Google Wifi?

    So I guess I could set it up with the AA&T Router > Asus VPN Router > Google Wifi and have my BI computer and cameras wired to the VPN router through a POE switch? My google wifi is set up and working very well for my other devices. I'd like to keep it in place if I can.

    BI computer, AT&T router and Google Wifi?

    First of all, I know just enough about networking to be dangerous; which is not very much. I recently changed my internet provider from Comcast to AT&T. Also recently set up a BI computer. The way I have things now is a bit unusual, and I'm wondering if I am setting myself up for disaster. My...

    Probably too late, but my Lowe’s is selling 1000’ southwire cat 6 riser for $115. I used my Lowe’s charge to save another 5%

    Blue Iris download from blueiris.com?

    I noticed the BI site has an option to download the software and an option to purchase. I assume the download will not run without purchasing a key? I tried downloading and got an error (the application was unable to start correctly (0x0000007b). Now I'm afraid that if I purchase the software, I...
