    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    That must be just an example. That isn't my camera.

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    I pulled the plug AND rebooted from the web interface. No other devices showed signs of a power failure. I also installed a new camera shortly after it happened to keep an eye on the PTZ and haven't had issues since.

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    I couldn’t view Dahua videos from my cell phone, which is what I need to be able to do.

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    Format is important to me. I’m rarely on my home PC, so I need a mobile-friendly format that allows me to quickly scrub the videos. I tried it with Dahua, and it just didn’t suit my needs, even though it’s clearly a better camera.

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    Thanks — I tried a Dahua, but the dav format was a deal-breaker.

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    Ok -- thanks for the advice. And that this point, my wife has topped my paranoia, buying two new cameras and a microphone to keep an eye on our property.

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    I know, and I tried duplicating it with a re-boot. I understand there could be more than one explanation, but I have not ruled out that someone simply jostled it. The first position had been facing directly away from my neighbor's house. It would have been easy to lean over our porch and tap the...

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    I'm open to all the possibilities, but when I re-booted it, the camera returned to the last position I had it set.

    Thanks. I thought I was secure, but apparently not as secure as I thought.

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    I know this sounds naïve, but once someone uses Shodan to locate my camera, how do they then log in?

    Also, any recommendations on a decent external microphone?

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    Thanks, it has an SD card. I've been using the NAS drive, but will start using SD.

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    Yes, it's web-connected, and we needed a PTZ because we have several areas we're trying to monitor.

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    Re-booted and it returned to the last position I had it set. Any other ideas what might cause it to re-position?

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    I haven't yet configured any presets. But I hadn't thought of that -- thanks. Do you suggest I reboot and see where it focuses?

    Douchebag neighbor messing with my PTZ?

    We live in a townhouse next door to asshole neighbors, which is the reason we installed security cameras. One of the cameras, a PTZ is mounted to the right of our front door. When we went to bed last night, this is how it was set: When we woke up, here's what we saw: The camera was now...

    Sorry for the delay. Unfortunately, the camera is no longer available.

    Offering for less than $300: Dahua 2MP 25x Starlight IR PTZ WiFi (SD49225T-HN-W)

    I'm re-posting a Dahua SD49225T-HN-W for sale. I bought it from Andy, but it won't suit my needs. He offered to let me return it but also suggested I try to sell it in the United States. I paid $335 for it, and will let it go for less than $300, possibly less than $275, depending on who pays...

    That's my hope. Like I said, great camera, but the format issue is just too much of a roadblock for my needs.

    Selling a Dahua SD49225T-HN-W

    I purchased a Dahua SD49225T-HN-W camera from Andy. It's a great camera, but won't suit my needs, mostly because of the DAV format; I need something where I can quickly scrub videos on Android and iPhone. Andy offered to let me return it but also suggested I try to sell it in the US. I paid...

    Automatic conversion of DAV files possible?

    Here's how I have it set up: two Sharx IP cameras record motion-detected videos to my WD My Cloud NAS drive in MOV format. I use the My Cloud app on an Android phone and iPhone to view the videos. It works perfectly, allowing me to scrub videos. I'm trying to find a way to view DAV videos from...

    Automatic conversion of DAV files possible?

    I recently got the Dahua SD49225T-HN-W to replace a Sharx SCNC3905. After a few struggles, I finally got the Dahua set up to record to my NAS drive via FTP. The issue is that the Dahua format is only DAV, as anyone reading this most likely already knows. Does anyone know if there's a way to...

    Need help -- lost with Dahua setup

    Thanks for the tips. I currently have two Sharx cameras saving to the the NAS drive, and I don’t have an old PC to use. How difficult is it to configure a NAS drive?

    Need help -- lost with Dahua setup

    I am completely lost (and helpless, I guess) setting up the Dahua SD49225T-HN-W. I am basically a tech amateur. Andy said that setting up the camera would be easy, but I'm hitting roadblock after roadblock. Here are my issues: When I log into the camera over the web using the IP address, I can...
