    5442 picture quality issue

    Well, I lowered the brightness, raised the contrast and dropped the gamma a little. I put the IR on manual at about 90 too. What do you guys think so far?

    5442 picture quality issue

    Ok, here is my night time picture. Maybe it's IR interference? I'm not so sure because the last time I took the camera off and held it up higher and away from everything the picture still looked the same. Maybe more testing is needed.

    5442 picture quality issue

    Here are my night time settings. Any suggestions to start with? The only thing I don't have is a night shot with IR on. I just went all the way back in my recordings to find one and realized I had turned off the IR when it snowed and forgot to turn it back on. So I guess without a baseline pic...

    5442 picture quality issue

    Thank you. looks like it has a lot less white haze in it. We shall see what happens when it gets really sunny out. Which looks like the sun might pop out from behind the clouds for a bit. I'll have to check the night settings now.

    5442 picture quality issue

    I've been having picture quality issues with this cam since I got it almost a year ago and am FINALLY posting for help. This is just for daytime right now. The first pic is when it is bright an sunny and the more normal green looking grass is a bright overcast day. Could it be just a update...

    Wildlife capture with curious car passing by

    These guys have been crossing my front yard every morning now for a week or so now. This is the best video I have found. Last week they came through the back yard with a total of seven but I don't have a camera on the back yard yet. Haven't seen these guys around here in a few years.

    Someone hits my mailbox, again

    I wanted to go 1/4" but couldn't find a typical looking mailbox like what I have now. This one was only $100 and I figured with it being 10gauge in thickness, it would do quite well, and it has. Still going back and forth with filling the mailbox post with concrete though. And maybe I should...

    Someone hits my mailbox, again

    I could see that being troublesome when the mailman comes up to it and it swings away. But I like the idea! I could move it back but I like how it slows people down coming by my house if another car is coming the other way. It's a narrow spot in the road right there. I live on the only section...

    Someone hits my mailbox, again

    She offered to pay for it to be fixed. I went out to look at it with her and told her not to worry about it. If she kept going and then came back later, it might have been a different story. This is my third mailbox. The first regular cheap $20 paper thin mailbox got so beat up by people...

    Someone hits my mailbox, again

    She said she mis judged how wide the road and car was while another car was coming the other way. The mirror was ripped off the car and the rear door and quarter panel has damage too from what I could tell. I assumed the dents and scrapes on the rear door and quarter panel are from the mailbox...

    My network closet

    I do have a fan in a home made box tower so the fan is at the top of the cabinet and it blows the hot air into the basement. It works just ok. Due to the cabinet being white, I didn't want to see any fans sticking out of the side. I may just end up putting everything in a cabinet in the...

    My network closet

    Available time and the honey doo list currently stops me. I have my modem, router, nas and tv computer in a cabinet in the living room and all my camera stuff in the basement on a shelf just under that cabinet. All the HDMI's and ethernet cables are ran through the wall down to the basement and...

    Any thoughts on this weather station after installation or is the EcoWitt HP3501 station a better purchase with it having separate sensors?

    school bus uses my front yard to turn around

    That is actually a driveway. Nobody really lives there. It is a second house for the owners. The trash and recycling trucks back up the street and into the driveway next to the barn to turn around.

    school bus uses my front yard to turn around

    I figured that if it happens again I would call the bus company to inform them of the misshap. The ground is pretty soft and I can fix it with a roller or even just the mower.

    school bus uses my front yard to turn around

    I just ripped out a evergreen bush and planted grass there about a month ago. I wasn't planning to put anything else there. Maybe I'll have to rethink that.

    school bus uses my front yard to turn around

    Noticed a school bus in front of my house yesterday morning. Must have been a new driver because they usually turn around where they pick up the kids. the driver must have got scared when they saw the bridge that they thought they could not cross. my road is marked as a 4 ton road.

    Looking for a new HTPC

    My HTPC just crashed this morning. It is an old Lenovo that was slow for everything and had no files saved to take up any space on the hard drive. I was thinking about getting something similar to what I use for BI. I have a hp 800 g4 i5 8500 3.00 GHz elitedesk sff with a 250gb ssd. I don't know...

    What's your Blue Iris Setup like? (List Specifications)

    Oh wow! Wish I had central air so I could pipe it in to my cabinet. In the summer my cabinet stays between 78°-84°. That's measured in just about the direct center of the cabinet.
