    Suggested form factor/camera for indoor PoE cameras?

    I have previously been using the "cube" style cameras (mine made by Hikvision/LTS) throughout my home and while these do get the job done: I wanted to see if others have thoughts on a better form factor for cameras installed throughout the interior of a house that might be more aesthetically...

    Moved into a new home with 3 Lorex E896AB H Series, H16 IP cameras already installed. Can I use them without buying a Lorex NVR?

    I just moved into a house where the previous owner left 3 cameras which he had installed around the perimeter of the home. The cameras are Lorex (E896AB H Series, H16 - 4K Deterrence Bullet AI PoE IP Wired Camera). When I plug them into my POE switch, they power on and even show up when...

    IR settings in Blue Iris not auto switching? (IR Auto) - purple hue when IR on

    Before switching to Blue Iris, I have been using a Swann NVR and the settings for all of my cameras leave the IR on auto so that they can turn on or off depending on the amount of light visible in the room. Since I've switched over to blue iris, I have noticed that they do not seem to...

    I have a few LTS CMIP8932-W 3MP cube cameras that have firmware v5.3.0 build 151014 installed on them. I recently purchased a few of the Annke 2MP cube cameras that were on sale and followed a guide to update them using the official Hikvision firmware and it worked perfectly! :) I am wondering...

    NVMS7000 - Is there a way to set up a default camera, unmuted, max volume,fullscreen?

    In a previous thread I mentioned that I was using a cheap tablet as the monitor for a camera in the baby's room. However, this tablet often powers off on it's own (perhaps due to an overheat issue since it is quite cheap) and when I power it back on and start NVMS7000 again, I continually have...

    I have two 1000' rolls of CAT6e cable that I purchased online and I am looking to get this CAT6e to all of my rooms and living areas in my home for both an IP camera (somewhere near the ceiling) as well as a box at normal floor level for other devices. So, this would be 2 cable runs leading to...

    Need suggestions for a Hikvision baby monitor and (wireless?) surveillance monitor...

    I'm looking to pick up a couple Hikvision IP cameras to use as baby monitors. I think it would be best if they had 2 way audio. Wifi seems like it might be logical for ease of using them in different rooms/locations, but if not then they must be PoE. I know in the past people have suggested a...
