I also found problems if this cam is set to H264. Blue iris will not export it at its highest resolution. So, had to manually parse the .bvr file using ffmpeg from H264 to H265 this afternoon when I was sending a clip to the police of folks checking to see again (this is the third time) if...

The lens ended up being dirty. A little bit of cleaning resolved the issue.

Anyone having problems setting the "Image Parameter Switch" on this camera? Messing around with the GUI, it gives no option once a display settings scene is selected to change the time. You can select what months it applies (doesn't appear to do anything) to but once you hit apply it does nothing:

I am getting pretty consistent events with CodeProject AI but it took some wrangling. And, probably isn't ideal for most since I'm using an Nvidia 3090 with 24 g of RAM to do the processing. When the panoramic is at an angle, there is a huge difference in distances that if you are using the...

Actually, the starburst effect is only significant in the right camera vs the left one of the panoramic view.

Unfortunately, the stitch will always be there. It's just a matter of where you want it to be. Just played around with it. Camera is at 8-8.5 feet high. So, think it is meant to be a couple feet higher. But, would be bumping against a rafter if it went higher. Did manage get a twist in...

Yeah, it has something similar. Have yet to play with it. Probably will try 3 for starters. A simple configuration turn out putting all the bells and whistles on my new install machine including setting up an NTP server and still seeing how close I can get to identify from sidewalk in. Don't...

Unfortunately, shutter speed didn't help. Albeit, 1/60 appears to work pretty good for night time. Still testing what I can get out of it with. Softlight tends to trigger once at 1/60 (if I don't disable it) but not if I have porch lights on. Unfortunately, the main server I use needs a new...

I just installed the NCD800 Bullet (annke version) of this today. Using default settings so far but am getting a starburst effect for distant lights at night. Anyone running into that?

Hey Folks, I'm still looking for a replacement of my old reolink RLC-423 and was searching the forums for mention of the new hikvision ptzs. Both appear to have 1/1.8 sensors with one variant being 2MP and the other 4...

Do you have a power outage alarm as well? Wouldn't know which ones to recommend. But, seems like something worth while looking into. They can send text messages too. Edit: And, looks like some UPS's support custom scripts on power events.

Out of curiosity, what do you hope to achieve if this were to happen again? It sounds like they can cut the power off no matter what. If backup batteries are in place, the alarm will sound at some point? And, then how long would it take for them to disable that? Is it sufficient to scare them...

Well, I was hoping for the smaller form factor. And, that looked like a very good option :(. Cheaper too. But, need to figure something out. Things get weird at night: Did just find this one. Dome form factor. Smaller. Appears to support auto tracking in 2MP. Initial picture is wrong...

Hmmmm,.. my current PTZ is under soffit. And, out of direct sunlight for most of the day. But, mist from the sprinklers from the park and medium winds with rain will get it wet. It is within reach for easy cleaning though. I'm going for good night vision so my preference is 1/2.8 for 2 MP or...

I like the idea of a 2MP 1/2.8 or better sensor (haven't seem any 2MP PTZ 1/1.8 though). A lot of the PTZs seem to come with 4MP 1/2.8. And, if you are depending on auto tracking where the camera would zoom in then wouldn't the 2MP perform better? Or, am I missing something? Unfortunately, I...

Are the videos in H264 codec?

Hi wittaj. I didn't get that impression for my use case. Which was least motion blur at night. Reolink tended to perform poorly compared to others. And, it seemed he did ok reviews of color night and panaromic cameras. I did search high and low for other camera comparisons by other...

Hi Alaska County, I was unable to view those vids from neither firefox nor chrome browsers.

Hi wittaj, I also recall there being some PTZ's that had some kind dome around them such that people couldn't necessarily see if it was tracking them. Are you familiar with any of those? Trying to find the links again for one. The one thing about considering an auto tracking PTZ is that...

Hi Flinstone61, Thanks for responding! Yeah, this is my first self wired camera. And, has been pretty useful while I'm awake if I hear a noise outside. I am quite fond of it. But, as previously mentioned, it doesn't provide enough for identification. And, where I live, there is increasing...

Hi samplenhold. Thanks for responding. That certainly looks like an option.

Yeah, I have no complaints with it's daytime performance. It is very crisp. I have been using blue iris. I set it up many years ago and haven't looked at the capabilities side of it since. There seems to be a lot more options out these days. Do you have any recommendations for that...

Thanks for the info wittaj! Yeah, I bought this PTZ almost 5 years ago. And, I noticed it had night visions issues even then. It does have a motorized lens (2.7mm - 12mm) and can go from 31°~87° degrees of viewing. But, with a 1/2.7" CMOS Sensor, it is far below the recommend sensor size...

Hey folks new guy here, I've been surfing the forums for a bit and researching a replacement for my Reolink RLC-423. We have had a spat of crimes in my area including 2 attempted catalytic convertor thefts in front of my house and this guy right next door: . I'm looking for something that...
