    Back deck/yard camera - 5442 S3 or 4k-X for no-light conditions?

    5442.. B54 bullet is much much better than turret in context of IR light... 2x more power, uniform light level over all video frame plus regulation of proportion wide/narrow IRs.. T54 is very bad in IR light (middle over blow, sides under light).. second proposition is TIOC-PRO 3449...

    Dahua AcuPick

    ^^ THIS... IVS is for perimeter protection - it must work fast... reports first frame with specific person / vehicle... Video Meta Data - is more for cataloging people and vehicles. It sees a specific person/car for many seconds and tries to select the best one from the many available video...

    IPC-Color4M-TL IVS birds and foxes detected as humas.

    only TIOC-PRO 3449 - so -T with hybrid LEDs... Andy (@EMPIRETECANDY), please clean up your model naming. Using the same Color4M model name for three completely different Dahua camera series (2449, 3449, 5459, in future will be new 7459) leads to major confusion. As I already suggested in DM...

    IPC-Color4M-TL IVS birds and foxes detected as humas.

    Build from scratch new much bigger AI models, using modern science about training more like in OpenAI.. Previous ones were 4-6 year old... they should have better filter rate.. and work for bigger distances.. they should have better support for animals with animal type differentation (in higher...

    Low-light struggles / improving image quality.

    if you have 5442 in S3 variant (white/blue web GUI interface) - it's the same... if older one (grey web GUI interface) - then newer... Z4E means that this model have strong telephoto lenses - with zoom range 2x to 6x comparing to iPhone...

    Low-light struggles / improving image quality.

    gain is different name to ISO... basic of photography: to increase light capture (increase brightness) on photo, camera can: increase gain/ISO increase the shutter time increase the aperture (this camera don't have this capability). by limiting gain range you ask to use longer exposure.. and...

    Low-light struggles / improving image quality.

    it's simple.. car speed could be different (slower).. sun light / direction - brighter day = faster shutter... Also you lowered max gain at day settings - so camera can choose longer exposure.. ps. there are totally different algorithms used when you are in manual mode and automatic mode..

    Low-light struggles / improving image quality.

    1. you have worst possible angle.. car movement in photo frame at this angle is the biggest and plate visibility very low.. 2. if the cars are moving faster, you must go down with shutter speed even to 1/1000 second to have sharp plates. 3. there can be focus problems... 4. I saw similar...

    IPC-Color4M-TL IVS birds and foxes detected as humas.

    In my testing (mostly on 5442) AcuPick 2.0 increases a lot false positives - but not for IVS, but for Video Meta Data. You don't have AcuPick 2.0 / Video Meta Data - so it should not be a problem. Use what works best for you.

    PTZ5A4K-25x Stopped working after being in web interface. How to reconnect

    if you somehow defaulted camera, you will find it at 192.168.1.108. Your computer must be in 192.168.1.xxx / 255.255.255.0 network segment.. Or use Dahua config or any Dahua NVR with camera registration page - to find and configure camera.

    IPC-Color4M-TL IVS birds and foxes detected as humas.

    no, TIOC-PRO don't have VMD... basic IVS plus basic AcuPick 1.0 (no VMD descriptions)... there should be firmware upgrade to TIOC-PRO with long distance mode (large AI models) for IVS in some future...

    Dahua WizColor COMING SOON!

    TIOC-PRO are using very brutal full scene dynamic HDR / Color LUT and 3D noise reduction to brighten/color up video scenes to full day levels. This process works very well for static (or almost static) images, but It crashes on moving objects. The AI-ISP tries to "figure out" what the sensor is...

    Low-light struggles / improving image quality.

    One more thing: Your pictures shows that You don't have there enough lighting to run cams in color at night.. So you will do them probably on IR.. 5442 bullet have very strong and uniform IR. it have double set of wide and narrow IR emitters and you can configure proportion between them to...

    IP Camera not displaying main stream

    because this is very very low-end DVR dedicated for 1080p (2Mpx) analog cams.. you have IP 4Mpx cams... it doesn't have enough decoding capability to decode all cams in full stream to display them... you need something better / higher line.. ps. you can try to decrease frame rate on all cams...
