    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Great write up @David L ! Thanks for taking your time compiling great info into one post! One thing I'd like to correct is that EZVIZ DB1's faceplate comes in white, copper, and black just like Nelly's as well as the wedge mounting plates.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Hmm I wonder why they all get logged out sporadically. Fingerprint login is not enabled. Image encryption is also not enabled.

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    I've purchased a few of this doorbell cameras as christmas presents for my family. Over all, they love the image quality. However, they all complain that they have to relog into app (they're using LaView One on iOS) after a day or so, which slows them down when someone presses the doorbell...

    Adding Laview NVR to iVMS-4500

    I cannot for the life of me add Laview NVR to iVMS-4500 android app. I just hate the stock Laview Net app. iVMS-4500 sees the NVR when doing online search. IP address is correct, port is 8000. It takes my username and pass but cannot connect. I'm only using iVMS for local viewing so no port...

    Sweet! LTS is releasing an ONVIF compatible doorbell with SD card slot and 940nm IR

    rtsp stream via VLC and NVR didn't work. Should I try changing the ip address of the doorbell and hopefully the NVR will see it then?

    Sweet! LTS is releasing an ONVIF compatible doorbell with SD card slot and 940nm IR

    Re-entering username and pass didn't work. Resetting doorbell didn't work either. Weird that it connected fine before. Now, the NVR couldn't even find the ip of the doorbell.

    Anyone able to add this doorbell to Dahua NVR via Onvif? I was able to add it to my NVR initially but now it won't connect anymore. Still able to access the doorbell ip through web browser though.

    Need help with SD59225U-HNI PTZ.

    I have the same exact router. From my limited research, you can't set up VPN with that router. I'd love to be proven wrong. I was thinking of setting up another router behind it and set up VPN through that router. Let me know if you find a better way!

    Running wires to NVR

    I can't decide which route to take when running wires to my NVR. Option 1 would be to just to connect wires straight through the wall and into NVR. Like so: Option 2 would be to use keystones and connect NVR to each keystone. My only concern is data transfer speed. Would this affect the...

    While playing around with the settings on my NVR, I noticed that it has Super H.264/5 option. Can someone help me understand what this does? How is this different from H.264/5? Thanks

    Suggestions for POE indoor cameras

    I have 2 Amcrest ProHD Wifi cameras that I use sporadically as baby monitors. For the price, it has everything I want: Pan/Tilt, Night vision, 2-way audio, SD slot. I'm thinking of buying either the POE conversion kit for these cams or buy the POE version for a more permanent install. While I...

    How is Costco Lorex 4k 8-channel NVR with 6 bullet cameras

    I had the Lorex Kit from Costco for about 2 weeks. Ended up returning it. From what you're wanting in your set up, I think you'll be very disappointed with the kit. What I don't like: 1. Night time images are very soft with lots of motion blur and trailing. 2. Lorex app is totally useless...

    Can I run both Blue Iris and NVR?

    I would like to run my NVR day and night, just like normal. All recordings would be done on NVR. Blue Iris will only run at night. The reason for this is that I can fine tune motion triggers much better with Blue Iris at night (less false alarms). I can also integrate Blue Iris motion triggers...

    Attempt at car theft. 1080p Dahua ip.

    It is always best to add motion activated lights as well. There's a video on here where a guy has motion activated lights in his driveway. Out of maybe 10 or so door checkers, more than half just turned around and left as soon as the lights turned on. The others took a quick peek inside the car...

    IPC-HFW5231E-Z12 LPR from 137 feet

    Ordered this cam from Andy but haven't set up yet. How are you guys solving the problems of parked cars along the side of the road? In my situation, it's pretty hard to capture license with those cars in the way.

    How realiable are Dahua IVS features?

    I've played around with the Lorex system the last few weeks. The more I researched, the more I wish it had IVS features. So, I'm thinking of returning the kit and go with Dahua NVR and cameras. My thinking is that I'd rather catch someone as they enter my property (particularly at night) before...

    Hi, I'm a total newbie when it comes to security cams. So please be patient with me :) I recently purchased the Lorex 4K system from Costco. I also bought the Dahua Starlight IPC-HDW5231R-Z to add to this system. I'm having trouble connecting the Dahua camera to the Lorex NVR. The NVR sees...
