    I wonder if your neighbors every think... What is wrong with this Looney guy walking back and forth in his yard all the time at night? I very much appreciate the reviews!

    Bad picture quality

    Also, when you take video of anything (but never of your TV or Monitor) turn the phone sideways. Amateur hour ended with the iphone 4s.

    Drive-thru KFC in Gainsborough fines people driving past

    On the East side of the Rat house we still have them. I wish they would have pulled them like your area. The Wife received one downtown and come to find out it a service out of North Carolina that manages all of it. Its a complete racket

    Mounting to Soffit with no backing?

    I installed all of mine with a 1x6 attached to a 2x4 then attached the 2x4 to the existing 2x6 behind the soffit. Then with some careful measuring, drilled a 2-1/2" hole saw through it and the aluminum soffit material. Mounted the camera base to that and haven't looked back. To do all that i...

    What do I need to hide these cat6 holes outside the house? Is it called a junction box?

    suggest using compression connectors instead of set screw. Compression will assist better in keeping water out.

    I want the best Dahua

    I would use conduit inside for locations that you wouldn't have access to once the home is complete so that if there was a problem, you would be able to replace cable AND always outside or in burial applications. Anything outside i would suggest a minimum of 1" conduit. Also, nice dog!

    I want the best Dahua

    I would highly recommend staying away from ENT or Smurf tube. Unless you have used and installed The Smurf tube and understand its flaws, know that doesn't have the rigidity needed to pull multiple cables through unless is secured every 24"-36" and even then, the flexibility of it puts you over...

    Door checker...

    I'm thinking about adding a camera to my corner fence post to get some better imaging of my shared alleyway. Still need to do some fine tuning to these cameras. I'm covered on the other side of the driveway as well but that camera stays in color because of the floodlight. Both cameras are...

    Mail Thief

    My guess is that this guy is using your address for a credit card theft ring or drug shipments. I would stay away from putting his picture in your mailbox so he sees it. Better to see if local PD can squat on your house if his timing has any consistencies. Also, it seems like hes wearing the...

    Do you think Audio is "worth it"?

    For the OP, your original question was if mic's are "worth it." For me, I say yes... The few times I wanted to hear what was said i had no problem figuring it out. The best time was my Mother in law reminding my Father in law that I'm always watching (I'm really not). When reviewing other...

    IVS Tripwire Notification

    I have 8 or 10 rules (whatever the max is) on a camera that covers my back alleyway. It triggers and captures snapshots of people walking very well. Its not so great for vehicles. It will capture the first and last in a row typically. I think in this scenario, this is where the Blue Iris...

    IVS Tripwire Notification

    You will have to direct each individual rule to email you. When you're in the Add/Edit rules click on the settings "gear" icon for the rule you want a snapshot from. Then check the boxes as needed. See the images. These are from my NVR.

    IVS Tripwire Notification

    Make sure you have a successful test email. If it fails, try the test button again. Often times, mine will fail (I turn the feature off most of the time) and i will immediately test again and it will pass. Then notifications work as selected.

    Im going to suggest "Nitro" and "Nikita". Remember the old TV series La Femme Nakita? The SheDevil sounds similar... Don't ask why Nitro... I tend to like names to start with the same letter.

    DAHUA NVR5XXX-4KS2_MultiLang_V3.216.0000002.0.R.20181106

    On my NVR 4KS2E ive had no issues after firmware upgrade. I like the way it now sorts the AI Search (Smart Search) by time for all cameras instead of before when you selected all it would run through the time for each channel first.
