    DH-IPC-HDW2231R-ZS dead?

    Thank you. This looks to be a great replacement. Is there an upgraded version with Vari-focal? I am thinking this? https://www.amazon.com/EmpireTech-IPC-T5442T-ZE-Vari-Focal-Eyeball-Starlight/dp/B08C77TNY9?th=1 Also, for anyone that has used both, is the extra cost worth the upgrade?

    DH-IPC-HDW2231R-ZS dead?

    Thanks all. Removed camera, and I can see a little discoloration on the Cat5 on two of the pins which looks like an arc... most likely internal short. Everything else very clean (this camera is on a patio, but under a patio ceiling- very well protected. No direct exposure to rain, etc. CAT5...

    DH-IPC-HDW2231R-ZS dead?

    As a follow up, can anyone recommend an adequate similar replacement? Or even an upgrade recommendation? This is for the front of the house (driveway coverage)

    DH-IPC-HDW2231R-ZS dead?

    Camera is no longer feeding Blue Iris... physically the IR lights are no longer on. The corresponding POE port on switch is not lit... and doesn't light when I plug a working device into it. And plugging the dead camera into any other ports doesn't change anything. So is seems like the camera...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Hopefully someone will come out with a suitable replacement cam. (for the record, I've been 100% satisfied with this since purchase in 2020-NOV. Would've bought another if they were still sold)

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Does anyone know if parts are available for this doorbell camera? The center plastic "dome" is all cracked- I am thinking from Florida sun. I reached out to Nelly's, and they are seeing if they have any from old units. Thanks!

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    ... Downgraded to version 3.0.2.6 (from Nelly's website), and the options are now there. Thank you! Lesson learned: When you first run the Batch Configuration tool from Nelly's website, you will be prompted to upgrade. Don't upgrade, as when I did I lost some configuration options. ...

    New RCA HSDB2A 3MP Doorbell IP Camera

    Hi- I just installed a new Nelly's DB2. I used the Guarding VIsion app on iPhone to walk me through, connect to WIFI, etc. I was able to connect to Blue Iris without issue. The one thing I cannot figure out is how to setthe time (it is one hour behind). I installed the Batch Configuration...

    No access through iOS app over cellular after upgrade to v5

    Thanks. Cellular data is on (globally) and also for the app. I have no issue with VPN connection (over WIFI or cellular). When connected through VPN over cellular, I can get to the BI web interface. But the mobile app will not connect unless on WIFI. I had no issues with this until I...

    Blue Iris - video blur issue

    Thanks Fenderman!!! That did the trick. I rolled the video driver way back to version 21.20.16.4664. All seems to be working again- no trailing predator effect.

    Blue Iris - video blur issue

    After performing tests for several days, I can comfortably say this is an issue with the hardware accelerated decode setting in Blue Iris. Hardware accelerated decode (restart): Intel.... Blurring/Trailing/Predator effect is present. Hardware accelerated decode (restart): No...

    Blue Iris - video blur issue

    I’m pretty sure this is a problem with Blue Iris hardware acceleration. Been running for a few days with no hw acceleration and no issues. Will turn it back on and let it run. Perhaps something broke during OS update.

    Good idea- can PSS and Blue Iris run on the same server simultaneously without conflict?

    No issues showing up with pingtracer. Turning off hardware acceleration in Blue Iris to see if this makes a difference.

    Blue Iris - video blur issue

    So once today when I walked out the front door, the motion is captured on two cameras, and they both blurred. But I've walked out the front door several times today, and it only happened once. Where does one set DNR? On the Camera-> Settings -> 3D NR, and the "Grade" slider? Currently set at...

    Haven't tried the video driver, but rebooted yesterday morning. Ran for about 30 hours without any trails. I got one about 1/2 hour ago. But nothing since... So intermittent.

    Blue Iris - video blur issue

    Only occurs every once in awhile. Using cat5e solid- i make my own. Rebooting cameras didnt help this time. I have been noticing some networking issues lately on other devices. Will keep investigating.

    Blue Iris - video blur issue

    I take that back- Even a restart of Blue Iris is not correcting the problem. I will now be rebooting the cameras to see if it corrects things. Cameras are Dahau DH-IPC-HDW2231R-ZS. Settings in Blue Iris for one of the cameras: Max Rate 400000 [25.00 fps] Hardware accelerated decode: Default...

    Blue Iris - video blur issue

    Every once in a while, my alert clips show motion as blurred, i.e. if someone walks by a camera they are sharp, then there is a trail of blur. When this happens, a restart of Blue Iris seems to fix things. Any suggestions on what could be causing this?
