Can you turn the LED on and off with an http sting though? Would be fairly trivial to mimic that behavior, DVR senses motion, sends string to camera to turn on led, turns off x amount of time after motion has stopped by sending another http string?

This could be what I'm looking for. I moved away from the crazy neighbors that caused me to get into cameras in the first place, and the wife doesn't want multiple "ugly" cameras all over the new house. I could get by with two of these, and I like the profile. Andy, can you get one? I'd buy one...

Stupid me. I didn't realize NX Witness includes automatic failover for free (you install another server, but it's the cameras that are licensed). They have a youtube video where they are actually running a server on an Intel compute stick with a half dozen 1080P streams and recording with them...

Good to know. Unfortunately it looks like Milestone requires Windows and I'm not willing to pay for a license. My server is no slouch, perhaps it can handle it.

I have it sending an email alert. Axxon would only send an alert and no image, this is sending a single image. They do have an Android app which I'm also running on my tablet, version 3 they are about to release has some type of cloud integration, I'm waiting to see what that is and if I trust...

Do you mean within NX Witness/DW Spectrum? In regards to event handling?

It would have been nice for me to have been able to go back and show the police that their car was keyed on some date 2 months ago; although it seemed just proving that they were off by more than 8 days was enough for the police. Not long after that, I saw a squad car in front of their house...

I'll respectably disagree with you on the 24x7 recording for every camera. I do that on some of my cameras; I record the low-res stream 24x7 and the 4k stream when there is motion. On some of my other cameras, like my backyard where there isn't a single recording, sometimes for 5 days if I or...

Does the IVS on the new cameras work that well? I remember just trying the motion detection back on the Hikvision cameras to try to avoid upgrading my server as doing the video analytics on the server can be CPU intensive. My experience then was pretty poor. I remember reviewing the video after...

I was trying to do the Christian thing. I also had concerns as I didn't know if this guy was violent or not and after being arrested, would he come back shooting (not a problem if it's me or my wife, but with a then 2 and 4 year old in the house I wouldn't want to get in a shootout). What I've...

I tried several and ended up settling on Axxon Next. I liked the single pain of glass on all the cams, not just motion detection but other analytics (line crossing, abandoned items, etc) to cut down on false alerts and the 100 to 500 emails I would receive from Blue Iris every day no matter how...

I also would like to order all the cameras I need in one shot, but it definitely would not go over well with my wife either. It is an expensive hobby. I think a lot of us got into this for one reason or another, a bad experience. In my case my property was vandalized multiple times, Christmas...

Thanks, good to know. I had to convert it to .jpg. Again to the Hikvision 2332 (which was set at 1/30) there was no image, complete blackness. The 4231 was default except I had WDR on as I found it evened out the contrast of the picture during the day at the cost of colors being slightly off...

Do you mean the patio with the 4231 and no IR? No real point in showing the Hik with no IR, as it's completely black under the same conditions. It looks like I need to host the picture somewhere, I can't simply insert it. Any suggestions as to a site I can do that on?

I also received a 4231 from Andy this past week. I replaced a Hikvision 2CD2332-I turret with the 4231 (L shaped back patio, so I didn't need the varifocal, 3.6mm is almost perfect). My backyard has motion lights but no external lights from anywhere, completely black other than the IR from the...

In the electrical section of many local hardware stores, they sell "liquid electrical tape". It is typically a short jar with a brush attached to the cap. I brush that on just at the junction and let is sit for 20 minutes or so, typically dry to the touch at that point. When swapping out a...

Hello Andy, I am looking for a IPC-HFW8232E-Z and/or a IPC-HDW5231R-Z. Could you please let me know when you may have stock and current pricing for each? Thanks very much.

Hello, a few individual items swaying on the screen isn't the same as the entire image moving, antishaker most likely isn't doing you any good in this scenario. I also forgot to mention, as it's one of those items that works differently in Axxon than say Blue Iris; not including areas you...

Hello Euclidnet, Thanks for the screen capture, I can see why you are having so many alerts; that's a really challenging area to cover with motion detection with all the sun and shadows. I have a similar problem with shadows from trees over my lawn for at least half the day on all of my cams...

Hello, I've been using Axxon for the last two years at my home, hopefully I can help. My first thought if you are recording constantly is if you go to Archive | Linked archives; if you select a particular camera, on the upper right you see "set recording parameters" - is your mode set for...
