    Can't find settings for VLAN on my Dahua Cameras

    Today I realized there is no setting for VLAN ID on my Dahua Cameras. I guess I will have to use an untagged port on my switch then. Also there is no dual IP stack.

Currently I'm running DeepStack locally but I'm tempted to set it up on a different host as a Docker image. The reason is...

    Choosing Dahua firmware from a list of firmwares with no further explanation

(Due to that I wrote a lot of text i suppose) It's garbled and I can't complete it. In some browsers that I've tried on my...

    IP cameras that don't require Windows for playback/administration

    Hi there! I have a couple of Hikvision cameras and they all come with a Web GUI that require Windows or Mac to allow their web components to run. These are necessary for playback. (Live view can utilize VLC though) I've decided to try a Dahua IPC-HDW4231EM-AS but I guess the situation is...
