    Dahua NVR and Camera Setup - Best Practice

    So here's what I did. Since I already have 10.0.0.89 as my reserved IP address for my Windows machine, I used 10.0.0.89 / 255.255.255.0 / 10.0.0.1 as my IP4 properties. Then under advanced, since my router is saying my rogue camera is 192.168.1.251, I created two IP addresses: 192.168.1.250...

    Dahua NVR and Camera Setup - Best Practice

    Finally.... I did remove the camera's ethernet cable from the poe switch and connected it to my main network switch. I tried both a poe port and a regular port, and neither way makes the camera accessible. BTW I'm using Blue Iris as my NVR.

    Dahua NVR and Camera Setup - Best Practice

    Sorry I don't understand what you're saying here. I'm trying to connect to my camera, but the camera is powered via POE, so when I take my laptop and physically connect to the camera from my laptop, does the camera get power from the laptop somehow. Because when I did connect physically to the...

    Dahua NVR and Camera Setup - Best Practice

    Thanks again for your reply. All my IP cameras are wired via ethernet to my Dahua POE switch (which is then connected to my Unifi network infrastructure). That's how it's always worked and it's always worked fine. I haven't made any changes to the physical topology. I'm certain I have...

    Dahua NVR and Camera Setup - Best Practice

    No I think we miscommunicated somehow. My LAN's DHCP range is 10.0.0.1 - 10.0.0.254. And all my cameras have IP reservations inside the range. My network and all the cameras (and my Blue Iris) have been working swimmingly for several years. What I don't understand is why, after a short power...

    Dahua NVR and Camera Setup - Best Practice

    Thank you so much for your reply!! I tried this, but I suspect I executed it incorrectly. In my case, my DHCP range is 10.0.0.X, and the problematic camera is showing up on my router as 192.168.1.251 (?). So I configured my Windows PC with a static IP address of 192.168.1.252 or 192.168.1.2...

    Dahua NVR and Camera Setup - Best Practice

    I have about a dozen Dahua cams and a Blue Iris NVR. Been working swimmingly for years. Recently we had a brief power outage (gotta love ComEd). Afterwards one of the cameras came back online with an IP address (192.168.1.251) outside of my DHCP range (10.0.0.X). All the other cameras...

    Unable to Connect Remotely When using Authentication

    Sorry, I know this message was from a long time ago, but I'm trying to figure out two things (my use case is remote access between two different licensed server instances of BI5 in two different locations): 1. Do we uncheck LAN only on the instance being monitored or the instance from which we...

    How to train a custom YOLOv5 model using CodeProject.AI Training for YoloV5 6.2 module

    Can anybody help answer the above question regarding training YOLO on pets? Can you train it (with sufficient pics) to identify an individual domestic animal (e.g., Spot), or just identify where it is a dog or cat, etc.? Sorry for the noob question, just getting into training custom models.

    How to train a custom YOLOv5 model using CodeProject.AI Training for YoloV5 6.2 module

    Just so I’m clear, does the pets custom model allow us to train to identify a specific pet (loosely, facial—err, body—recognition applied to dogs and cats, or just differentiate among species? @MikeLud1, any POV?

    Direction of motion on detection...

    curious if anyone has succeeded in producing directional events, as above, but using BI alert actions, rather than MQTT. I’d love to use A>B,B>A logic for the trigger and then pass “arriving” to one action and “departing” to a different action. Except, on the BI actions tab, you can only...

    AI @ Trigger vs. AI @ Alert

    Long-time Blue Iris guy here, just starting to get into the AI features -- both CodeProject and ALPR. I'm trying to figure out two details: How does the interplay work between required objects to Trigger versus required objects to Alert? Example: if "person" is required to Trigger, then...

    Dahua SD49225T-HN No Longer Connects

    So I have a Dahua PTZ camera in my backyard that has worked great for ~3 years. Recently, it lost network connection (I have a number of other dahuas that continue to work without a problem). I performed continuity tests with the ethernet run, which checked out. Because it's a long run, I use...

    A Tricky Back Patio...

    Does anybody know if these dual lens cams work with BI? And does BI treat such a device as two cameras or one?

    A Tricky Back Patio...

    I’m trying to surveil both doors, including in low light conditions. Secondarily, I’d like to monitor activity on the patio generally. The rest of the backyard is already covered, so this is strictly about the patio. If I put the cam in between the doors looking out, then I can’t see the...

    A Tricky Back Patio...

    I've got a configuration in my backyard that's a little tricky and I'm trying to figure out the best way to configure the camera angle(s). Below is a horrible hand drawn picture. The right half is supposed to illustrate the physical structure of our house; the left half is our backyard...

    Thanks Andy, but I keep getting "Requested Conversation Cannot Be Found" when I click on the email. And I don't see anywhere to go on ipcamtalk to find a "conversation". Sorry, newb here. Can you just respond to my email from last week?
